Collin County commissioners accept maintenance of residential streets over objections, 2-1
Summary
Commissioners approved accepting maintenance responsibility for a neighborhood’s residential streets despite a commissioner’s warning that county tax receipts from those properties likely will not cover long-term maintenance costs.
Collin County Commissioners Court voted 2-1 to accept maintenance responsibility for a set of residential streets under agenda item 1I1, a decision several commissioners warned could shift long-term costs to the county.

One commissioner said the county should not be taking on responsibility for residential streets because property taxes paid by those homes are unlikely to cover maintenance costs over time.
