Harris County voters may cast ballots on a hospital district and 20 million flood control bonds even if their taxes on taxable property including cars are unpaid. An affidavit will attest they are qualified voters and residents of Harris County with ownership of taxable property. Delinquent taxes do not disqualify voters in this bond election, though some election judges believed car taxes must be paid if no real estate is owned.

Harris County Officials Rally Support for $20 Million Flood Bond
Two Harris County officials urged Baytown Channelview Crosby and Highlands leaders to back a proposed $20 million flood control bond to begin a full drainage system. A separate ballot item would create a county hospital district. The plan targets drainage right of way, with total costs estimated at 200 to 300 million, and aims to fund capital improvements beyond current maintenance. County leaders said the program could trigger economic growth while avoiding tax increases via retirements of other bonds. The bond election runs 7 am to 7 pm Saturday.
