Request by Housing and Community Development for approval of the first amendment to an agreement with Harris County Precinct Two to revise the project budget to decrease $45,000 in CDBG-CV funds for an overall project budget total of $520,000 allocation for the Doss Park project.

When the county changes the budget on a federally funded project, Commissioners Court must approve it. This keeps spending transparent and accountable to the public. The funds come from CDBG-CV, a federal program that supports community development.

This is a budget amendment to an existing agreement between Harris County's Housing and Community Development department and Precinct Two. It lowers the CDBG-CV funding for the Doss Park project by $45,000, for a revised total of $520,000. CDBG-CV funds are federal dollars meant to support communities, especially during or after emergencies.
