Subject:

Discussion and possible action to approve a Resolution by the Webb County Commissioners Court authorizing the Community Action Agency to submit a Contract Amendment with a Budget Amendment and a Performance Statement Amendment to the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs, Office of Colonia Initiatives for the Self-Help Center TCDP Contract # 7216013 and authorizing the Webb County Judge to sign all relevant documents and any other matters incident thereto.

Solution: Commissioners Court passes a Resolution authorizing the submission of this Contract Amendment as required by the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs.
