Background and Discussion:
Harris County Commissioners Court previously approved the Annual Action Plans (AAP). The Annual Action Plans, which are a consolidation of the Community Development Block Grants (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME), Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG), Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) I and III, and Community Development Block Grant - Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) funds, were also subsequently approved by the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Since HUD approval several changes have been made to projects reported in these documents; and additional CDBG and ESG funding has been made available to Harris County under the CARES Act (Public Law 116-136), authorized on March 27, 2020, for responding to the COVID-19 pandemic.
2015 HOME Funds:
• Project 2022-010 Harris County Community Services Department: HOME Multi-Family Housing Program (Countywide).
o Obligate $5,309.79 in 2015 HOME Funds and obligate $402,318.96 in 2015 HOME CHDO Funds. Total project funding, including previously awarded amounts, will be $1,848,370.75.
2019 CDBG Funding:
• Project 2019-030 Sunbelt Fresh Water Supply District: Oakwilde Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Phase 8 (Precinct 2).
o Deobligate $408,176.49 in 2019 CDBG Funds. Project completed. Total project funding including previously awarded amounts, will be $241,823.51.
Expected Impact:
Approval is required to meet timeliness regulations established by HUD. Total amounts obligated and deobligated include:
• Obligate $5,310 in 2015 HOME funds to a PY2022 project;
• Obligate $402,319 in 2015 HOME CHDO funds to a PY2022 project; and
• Deobligate $408,176 in 2019 CDBG funds.
Alternative Options:
There are no alternatives. The county risks being out of compliance with HUD regulations. Approval is required to meet timeliness.
