Request for approval of the Program Year 2026 (PY2026) Annual Action Plan for entitlement funds and authorize submission to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

Every year, Harris County receives federal money from HUD to support affordable housing, community development, and services for lower-income residents. Before the county can use those funds, Commissioners Court must approve the plan and send it to HUD. This is a key moment for the public to see how those dollars will be directed in your community.

The item before Commissioners Court is the Program Year 2026 Annual Action Plan. It outlines which programs and projects will receive federal entitlement funds — things like housing repair, fair housing services, infrastructure in underserved neighborhoods, and more. Once approved, the plan goes to HUD for final review.
