The Texas General Land Office has approved $286,025 in Hurricane Harvey disaster recovery grants, including an allocation to Lee County for a street improvement plan. 

"Hurricane Harvey devastated communities across the Texas Coast," Texas Land Commissioner George P. Bush said. "These recovery funds are critical to improving local infrastructure that will protect lives, homes and businesses from future storms. We continue to work with our partners in communities across the region to leverage these resources efficiently and effectively to benefit Texans affected by Hurricane Harvey."

County Road 226, located at the Cummins Creek Low Water Bridge Crossing, will be the first project to receive refurbishing.

Bush was tasked by Gov. Greg Abbott to spearhead the historic Hurricane Harvey recovery effort. Funding will come from the Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery.
