Allen’s child-safety fee share totals $35,806.07 in county register

Allen, Texas, is named for $35,806.07 in third-quarter child-safety fees in a Collin County payment register approved by commissioners Sept. 28, 2026.

The entry is check 565834, dated Sept. 17. The county’s signed approval order covers the disbursement list for the period ending that day.

Child-safety fees are tied to vehicle registration: Collin County’s fiscal 2026 fee schedule lists a $1.50 charge. Under Texas law, a portion of that revenue goes to municipalities according to population, after allowed county deductions.

The register gives readers an amount and purpose for the payment, but it does not identify a specific Allen expenditure. Approval of the county list alone does not verify the city’s receipt or use of the funds.
