Galveston County Community Development Block Grant – Mitigation Grant Program

How it works

Galveston County’s Grants Administration Department lists a Community Development Block Grant – Mitigation Grant Program page and publishes public notices for specific mitigation projects funded through the Texas Department of Agriculture. The current notice describes county water infrastructure work, including replacing water pipe and installing fire hydrants, as part of a disaster-risk-reduction project.

What the money covers

The official public notice is project-specific rather than a homeowner incentive announcement. It describes infrastructure improvements tied to flood-risk management, not a standing homeowner rebate or direct homeowner grant.

Amounts and matching

The notice does not state a homeowner payout amount, match requirement, or reimbursement cap for individual homeowners.

How to apply

The public notice provides a comment period and a county contact for the proposed activity, but it does not provide homeowner application instructions for an incentive program.

Timing and deadlines

The specific notice on the county site states comments were due by 2026-07-17 for the proposed activity. The county page itself does not state a continuing homeowner application window.
