Broward County is considering a Third Amendment to an existing agreement with Legal Aid Service of Broward County, Inc. This amendment proposes to increase the maximum funding for eviction prevention services by $135,000. The total funding would rise from $174,644 to $309,644. This funding is intended to help individuals and families facing homelessness. The agreement would be effective from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026. This item is currently pending before the County Commission. If approved, the County Administrator will take necessary actions to implement the amended agreement. This project involves funding for services, not new construction or site development, so the primary opportunity lies in legal and administrative support services related to the agreement's implementation and management.
