Request by the Commissioner of Precinct 4 for approval to submit an application to the Apache Foundation for in-kind grant funds in the amount of $7,000, with no required match, for the FY26-27 Apache Corporation Tree Program.
Harris County Precinct 4 is seeking $7,000 in free trees from Apache Corporation to expand green space and reduce urban heat.
Harris County Commissioners Court is being asked to let Precinct 4 apply for the Apache Corporation Tree Grant Program for 2026–27. The grant would give $7,000 worth of trees at no cost to the county. Precinct 4 serves about 1.2 million residents across 55 parks and more than 14,000 acres of green space. Past grants helped plant trees in Alief and Gulfton, neighborhoods that can run 10 to 17 degrees hotter than the rest of the county.
Commissioners Court decides whether Precinct 4 can apply for free trees. If approved, the county submits an application. If awarded, trees could be placed in Precinct 4 parks or green spaces.
