This is a Budget Revision Request Form issued by the City of Dallas Office of Housing and Community Empowerment for use in the Drivers of Poverty/Drivers of Opportunity Program. The form is designed for nonprofit organizations serving as subrecipients under the Financial Empowerment Centers (FEC) initiative funded through Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) monies. The form provides a standardized template for organizations to request modifications to their approved budgets, requiring documentation of original budget amounts, requested changes, revised totals, and justification for the modifications. The document requires authorization and approval signatures from both the applicant organization's executive leadership and a City of Dallas representative, with a revision date of February 4, 2026.

The Budget Revision Request Form facilitates budget management and accountability for CDBG-funded activities related to financial counseling services, FEC hub site operations, and financial literacy programming. Organizations utilizing this form must align budget adjustments with CDBG regulations and requirements. Budget revisions require City of Dallas approval, ensuring that any modifications to spending plans remain compliant with federal grant requirements and the City's intended use of funds. This form represents a critical administrative tool for maintaining flexibility in program implementation while preserving fiscal oversight and regulatory compliance for federally funded community development initiatives.
