2027 TxCDBG Regional Project Priorities

SHERMAN, June 22, 2026 – Eric Bridges, Executive Director of Texoma Council of Governments (TCOG) announced today an invitation to local elected officials, community stakeholders, and residents to participate in a public meeting to help establish regional project priorities for the 2027 Texas Community Development Block Grant (TxCDBG) Program administered by the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA). The meeting is scheduled for Thursday, July 9, 2026 at 5:30p in the Eisenhower Room on the first floor of the TCOG building, 1117 Gallagher Drive, Sherman, TX.

Mr. Bridges stated, “The meeting will provide an opportunity for participants to offer input on the types of community development projects that should receive regional priority consideration during the upcoming funding cycle.”

Regional priorities play a significant role in the competitive grant evaluation process and help ensure that limited funding resources are directed toward the most pressing needs across the Texoma region.
