Bexar County officials have approved significant funding allocations aimed at enhancing community services and infrastructure during the Commissioners Court meeting on June 24, 2025. The court's decisions are set to benefit various local programs and projects, particularly in underserved areas.

A key resolution involved the reprogramming of $304,000 from Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to support a public works infrastructure project in Precinct 2. This move aligns with the county's policy to quickly utilize CDBG funds for projects that directly benefit the community.

In addition, the court reviewed preliminary selections for funding from multiple federal grants, including CDBG, Home Investment Partnerships, and Emergency Solutions Grants. The total anticipated funding for the upcoming program year is approximately $4.3 million. Notable allocations include $150,000 for the San Antonio Food Bank's senior meal distribution and $590,000 for sewer main replacement in Leon Valley. Other projects receiving funding include improvements to senior centers and public libraries across various cities in Bexar County.

The Home Investment Partnership Program will see $135,000 allocated to Habitat for Humanity for a single-family housing project, while $669,000 will support a multifamily project in Precinct 1. The Emergency Solutions Grant will provide $100,000 to Haven for Hope for street outreach services, ensuring continued support for individuals experiencing homelessness.

The court also accepted a $765 donation from Cavender Cares to support the Department of Military Veterans Services, which will enhance the resources available for veterans in the county.

These funding decisions reflect Bexar County's commitment to addressing community needs, particularly in areas of housing, food security, and infrastructure improvements. The court's actions are expected to foster economic opportunities and improve living conditions for low and moderate-income residents across the county.
