Dear luridtransom:

Thank you for writing to the Office of the Governor.

Our office does not distribute grant funding. However, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) oversees several grant programs for communities seeking to improve their parkland. Eligible projects include ball fields, playgrounds, trails, camping facilities, beautification, restoration and more.

Please note that TPWD is an independent state agency, and the governor has no role in its day-to-day operations, including determining grant awards. You may wish to contact TPWD to share your concerns. You can do so by calling, toll-free, (800) 792-1112.

We understand that Helotes city officials decided not to apply for a beautification grant. We encourage you to keep in contact with your city council members if issues such as this arise in the future.

Please write to our office whenever we can be of assistance.

Sincerely,
/s/
Dede Keith
