Residents of the 48 Hurricane Harvey designated impacted counties are encouraged to apply for up to $50,000 in out-of-pocket expenses reimbursement. The Texas General Land Office (GLO) allocated $100 million in Community Development Block Grants for Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) funds for eligible repairs to residents’ Hurricane Harvey damaged home. The City of Houston and Harris County are not eligible for this program, having local programs available instead.
To be eligible, the home must be the owner’s primary residence and eligible repairs must have been completed prior to the application launch date of Feb. 28, 2019. Applicants will also be required to provide proof of damage from Hurricane Harvey, provide receipts and/or invoices for eligible repairs.
