The Texas State Legislature authorized the creation of local transit authorities in 1973. In 1978, Houston-area voters created METRO and approved a one-cent sales tax to support its operations. METRO opened for business in January 1979. The Authority has transformed a broken bus fleet into a regional multimodal transportation system. Communities that are part of the METRO area include the cities of Houston, Bellaire, Bunker Hill Village, El Lago, Hedwig Village, Hilshire Village, Humble, Hunters Creek, Katy, Missouri City, Piney Point, Southside Place, Spring Valley, Taylor Lake Village and West University Place. Major portions of unincorporated Harris County are also included.
In October 2002, all of the Community Development Districts entered into an Interlocal Agreement that created the Inter-District Authority to operate and maintain Town Hall. In 2006, the Districts agreed to grant the IDA additional powers to provide administrative, financial, and operations and maintenance services to the Districts and the Homeowners' Associations. The IDA was also appointed to act as the District Manager for each of the Districts and was granted authority to hire personnel to manage all of these activities. The current Interlocal Agreement sets forth the duties and responsibilities of the IDA as well as the allocation of expenses to member Districts.
