Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request by the Commissioner of Precinct 2 for approval to accept from the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department grant funds in the amount of $1,500,000, with a required match of $1,500,000, for the Challenger Seven Memorial Park Boardwalk Program.
end
Background and Discussion:
The TPWD-Local Parks Grant provides $1.5M with a required $1.5M Match for a total project cost of $3M. The Challenger 7 Memorial Park - Boardwalk Renovation project was submitted by Precinct 1 and due to redistricting, fell within the new boundaries of Precinct 2. The project was placed on hold until Precinct 2 could assess project and match funding and the Precinct has decided to proceed with the project as originally proposed.
Expected Impact:
Assist with partial funding for Boardwalk Renovation of Challenger 7 Memorial Park.
Alternative Options:
Without these grant funds we would have to scale back the project and/or utilize other sources of funding.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
X Public Health
_ Transportation
_ Flooding
X Environment
