Commissioners Court is responsible for budgetary decisions, tax and revenue decisions, and all personnel decisions except for certain positions which are either elected or appointed by the judiciary or other committees.
Daily, a commissioner speaks with citizens about what they want. A particular vote on a particular issue, a complaint about taxes, a problem with a sidewalk or a street light, are just a few things that commissioners ad- dress daily. To effectively carry out the role of commis- sioner requires making decisions.

The major duties of the commissioner's court involve overseeing the budgetary and policy making functions of county government. In addition, in many counties, commissioners have extensive responsibilities related to the building and maintenance of county roads.
Successful commissioners will shape and build a diverse market of services, including self-directed and preventative services, developing skills in the community and equipping people to deliver safe and effective care and support.
