Background and Discussion:
The TPWD-LPG 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. Project was placed on hold until Precinct 2 could assess project and match funding and has decided to proceed with project as originally proposed.

Expected Impact:
Assist with partial funding for Boardwalk Renovation of Challenger 7 Memorial Park.
