The City of Houston is seeking a $750,000 Community Development Block Grant to aid a Houston manufacturer.
A public hearing is planned for 7 p.m. April 6 at city hall to receive input on the request, which would benefit Countertops LLC. It operates at the Houston Industrial Park.
Under the grant program, activities eligible for funding include improvements to public works, site improvements, housing rehabilitation and others allowed by law.
The project is expected to provide new employment. The firm moved into a Houston Industrial Development Authority building last summer.
