Summary
San Patricio County approved applying for a $300,000 Texas Parks and Wildlife small community recreation grant with a 50% local match funded from Gold Mesa accounts to support multi-site park improvements.
The court approved a request from the parks grants manager to apply for a Texas Parks and Wildlife local parks small community grant of $300,000, with Gold Mesa funds serving as the required 50% match.
