14-Attachment E - Budget Revision Request Form.pdf

This is a Budget Revision Request Form for the City of Dallas Office of Housing and Community Empowerment (OHCE), designed for use with the Eviction Advocacy Program. The form serves as a standardized template for contractors and program administrators to request modifications to their approved budgets during the contract period. The document includes designated fields for the organization name, project description, contract period, and detailed cost category information, requiring specification of the original budget amount, the requested change, and the resulting revised budget. Contractors must provide a written explanation for any requested budget revisions and obtain authorization through the signature of an authorized executive and the responsible City of Dallas representative, with corresponding dates for audit and approval tracking purposes.

The form does not specify pricing terms, set-asides, or funding amounts within its structure, as it functions as a procedural tool rather than a financial document. Budget revision requests must be approved or denied by the City of Dallas, and the form includes a designated approval line for the City representative to document the final determination. This template is applicable to the one-year Eviction Advocacy Program agreement with potential one-year renewal option, which provides legal representation and advocacy services to Dallas residents facing eviction at no cost to clients, and any budget modifications would need to align with the program's established funding parameters and the City's Drivers of Opportunity policy framework.
