Background and Discussion:

On November 13, 2025 and December 11, 2025, Harris County Commissioners Court approved the PY25 Subrecipient Agreements for Entitlement funds, which included a global project that is supported by the above referenced Infrastructure Investments project activities.

 

Expected Impact:

To provide funding for Infrastructure Investments project activities that meet the needs of low-and moderate-income residents in Harris County. The anticipated fiscal impact to the County of the three agreements is $5,130,409 in CDBG-EN funds.

Alternative Options:

If the amendments are not approved, then the low-and moderate-income households in the Harris County Service areas will not benefit from the respective infrastructure investments project activities.

 

County Strategic Plan Goal:  2. Connect our community with safe, reliable, equitably distributed, and well-maintained infrastructure.
