Yes, if the county and the school district complete an interlocal agreement under Chapter 791 of the Government Code and the county received adequate compensation for its work. See AG OP. No. H-1019a (June 23, 1977) which discusses Dallas County’s authority to pave a parking lot for a city or school district as long as the county is compensated.
