DETAILS The City of Houston will receive more than $61 million in Community Development Block Grant Mitigation (CDBG-MIT) to fund mitigation projects that will lower the risk of impacts from future disasters. The Housing & Community Development Department is creating an action plan for how this money will be spent. This action plan is our grant application to the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD). Money for mitigation projects cannot be used for emergency response services. Projects will focus on local and regional mitigation priorities that will have long-lasting effects.

Please share presentation to be made so community can prepare questions. What will be the schedule of milestones for community feedback? Turkey Gully is to be executed in Fall of 2024 but there hasnt been any community involvement as of Jan 2023.

Howdy Neighbor! This project will address the intersection with a proposed round-about and crosswalks at 18th/TC Jester. The eastern portion of 18th street is proposed to cul-de-sac to remove mobility conflicts at the intersection.
