Request for approval of an interlocal agreement with Harris County, in the amount of $1,000,000, for technical assistance, staff augmentation, and various services to assist with Community Development Block Grant - Disaster Recovery and Community Development Block Grant - Mitigation awarded to the Flood Control District. (Agreement No. 2024-04, Countywide).

Background and Discussion:
The Flood Control District has been awarded grants for Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) - Disaster Recovery and Mitigation. The CDBG projects will increase the volume of work for the Department of Economic Equity and Opportunity in its Worker & Community Protection Division for Section 3 and DBRA wage rate compliance services, and in its Inclusive Procurement Division for MWBE pre-award and post-award compliance services. This inter-local agreement with the DEEO will provide a framework for funding these resources through the CDBG grant and managing an ongoing, collaborative working relationship. This agreement will be amended each year based on anticipated needs.
Expected Impact:
The Flood Control District will have access to additional resources as needed to manage the grants.
Alternative Options:
The Flood Control District would need to hire additional staff.
