The Commissioners Court is the general governing body of Tarrant County. The Court is made up of the County Judge who is elected countywide and presides over the full Court, and the four County Commissioners -- each elected from one of the County's four precincts.

The four County Commissioners have both countywide and precinct responsibilities. Each commissioner is responsible for construction and maintenance of County roads within his or her precinct. Commissioners maintain offices both at the Administration Building and within their precincts. They are responsive to the particular needs of people living within their areas of the County. In Tarrant County, each member of Commissioners Court serves as a liaison to a particular board or agency of the County such as the Hospital District.

The hours of operation are Monday - Friday 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. For more information on obtaining copies of documents filed with the County Clerk's office, please call 817-884-1195 during regular business hours.

The County Clerk's Office provides support staff for the Tarrant County Commissioner's Court. The County Clerk is responsible for keeping court minutes and records. These records date back to 1876 and are kept in the County Clerk's Office on the fifth floor of the Tarrant County Administration Building.
