title
Request by Housing and Community Development for approval of a second amendment to an agreement with The Salvation Army of Greater Houston to increase the project budget in the amount of $255,000; update the Limitation of Appropriation, Federal Award Identification Table, and Scope of Services; and extend the term through May 31, 2026 for the PSH Preservation project funded by the American Rescue Plan Act 2021 (ARPA) Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF).
end
Background and Discussion:
On August 23, 2022, Harris County Commissioners Court approved an agreement between Harris County and The Salvation Army of Greater Houston for the PSH Preservation project, a project within the Community COVID-19 Housing Program (CCHP). The project provides rental and utility assistance, along with case management, to eligible individuals enrolled in Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH), funded with $6,398,697.00 in ARPA SLFRF.
On December 10, 2024, Harris County Commissioners Court approved a First Agreement Amendment to extend the project term through December 31, 2025, revise the Federal Award Identification Table; and update the Scope of Services and the Budget. The ARPA SLFRF allocation remained unchanged at $6,398,697.00.
The Second Agreement Amendment will extend the project term through May 31, 2026; increase the project budget by an additional $255,000; and update the Limitation of Appropriation, the Federal Award Identification Table, the Scope of Services and the Budget. The ARPA SLFRF project allocation will now increase to $6,653,697.00.
Expected Impact:
There is no new fiscal impact to the County. The $255,000.00 increase is being reallocated from HCD’s unexpended ARPA SLFRF. The overall CCHP fiscal impact to the County remains approximately $35M in ARPA SLFRF.
Alternative Options:
No alternative options.
