Harris County is not a coastal county under the Texas Coastal Management Program. There are no county-level coastal development regulations. Properties near Galveston Bay tributaries may be subject to Harris County Flood Control District floodplain regulations instead.
Harris County does not border the Gulf of Mexico directly and is not designated as a coastal county under the Texas Coastal Management Program administered by the Texas General Land Office. Development near waterways is regulated through the Harris County Flood Control District's floodplain management regulations rather than coastal development rules. Properties in FEMA-designated flood zones must comply with county floodplain development permit requirements.
Specific penalty amounts for this ordinance are not published in a publicly accessible fine schedule. Contact Harris County code enforcement directly for current fines, enforcement procedures, and hearing options.
