Background and Discussion:

The parties desire to amend this Agreement for the Third Amendment to (i) increase the Harris County CDBG-DR Construction budget line-item from $6,577,449 to $6,697,449; (ii) to decrease the Construction Management budget line-item from $120,000 to $0; and (iii) to extend the project completion date to April 1, 2025. The total Harris County CDBG-DR budget of $10,248,169 will remain unchanged.

 

Expected Impact:

The expected impact is to allow the 3300 Caroline Street project additional time and to finish constructing the multifamily units. No fiscal impact on the County is anticipated.

 

Alternative Options:

The alternative option is that the project will not complete construction within the contracted timeframe.
