Commissioners Court

Dallas County Commissioners Court


At the heart of Dallas County is the Commissioners Court. Each Texas County has four Commissioners and a County Judge who serve on this Court. The County is divided into four districts, and the voters of each district elect a Commissioner to serve a four-year term. All the voters of the County elect the County Judge to a four-year term. Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins is the presiding Officer of our County Commissioners Court.
