County lists CDBG-DR application steps, including conflict-of-interest and engineering selection

Lowndes County Board of Commissioners · August 25, 2026

Summary

Lowndes County's agenda groups three CDBG-DR items — conflict of interest, engineering selection, and submittal resolution — indicating preparatory steps for the 2026 Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery application; the agenda does not specify grant amounts or selected engineering firms.

Lowndes County's agenda includes three linked entries addressing the 2026 Community Development Block Grant - Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) funding application: a conflict-of-interest item, engineering selection, and a submittal resolution. The agenda lines read: '2026 Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBGDR) Funding Application - Conflict Of Interest'; '... - Engineering Selection'; and '... - Submittal Resolution.'

Together these items indicate the county is scheduling the formal steps commonly required to submit a CDBG-DR application: confirming conflict-of-interest findings, selecting or authorizing an engineering firm to prepare or oversee project work, and passing a resolution to submit the grant application. The agenda does not provide dollar amounts, the names of any recommended engineering firms, or a staff memo with project lists. Those details are typically included in the application materials or a staff report presented at the meeting.

If the board approves the submittal resolution and any associated engineering contract selections, the county would move forward with seeking CDBG-DR funds for eligible disaster-recovery projects. The Aug. 25 regular session is the likely date for staff presentations and any formal votes.
