38-Cent Rounding Error Kicks Back $9 Million Hurricane Grant Request

The problem was fixed in a special meeting Friday as County commissioners approved a revised grant application for $8,913,617.62 in buyout and acquisition funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (through the Texas General Land Office).

The original application was submitted Aug. 30.
