Burton council approves $750,000 TxCDBG drainage application and selects Langford to administer
Summary
Council authorized submission of a 2025–26 TxCDBG application for $750,000 to fund drainage improvements and chose Langford Community Management Services to prepare and administer the grant if awarded; the city committed $15,000 in local matching/admin funds.
Council approved Resolution 20240910RA authorizing the submission of a Texas Community Development Block Grant (TxCDBG) application for the Community Development Fund and specified the application amount as $750,000. The resolution noted that if federal funds are awarded, the city will comply with federal procurement, environmental review and civil-rights requirements.
Following that approval, council selected Langford Community Management Services (LCMS) to complete the 2025–26 TxCDBG funding application and to administer the program in the event the city receives funding. The resolution recorded the city’s commitment of $15,000 from the general fund toward grant administration activities.
The motion passed without recorded opposition; the council packet indicates the application will target drainage improvements on the south side of Burton and staff will proceed with grant-administration steps if the city is selected for funding.
