(the LGC), Houston-area communities, the City of Houston, and other entities, works to improve park spaces through renovation of existing parks and construction of new improvements to provide equitable distribution of park amenities and recreation facilities for Houston's growing communities. The LGC is a Texas nonprofit local government corporation created by the City to provide support for the City's park system. HPB has a management agreement with the LGC to acquire, manage, develop, and improve parks properties on behalf of the LGC and contract for the design, development, improvement, construction, and installation of parks and open spaces. In FY 2011. HPB had 6 projects in design phase and 12 projects under construction. 1017369 605297 2000 The Houston Parks Board's Land Acquisition Program is working towards the expansion of the City's park system, in partnership with the City's Parks and Recreation Department, Harris County Flood Control District and other entities. Our goal is to improve the quality of life for Houstonians by acquiring more parkland to ensure availability of equitably distributed park spaces as the city continues its aggressive growth. One area of particular focus is acquiring green spaces along the bayous to help improve flood prevention while providing park amenities for the community. The HPB Land Acquisition Program acquired $1,365,008 in property for additional greenspaces and funded $41,537 in properties for the Houston Parks Board LGC. HPB also donated $411,081 in land assets back to a community association.

From time to time, it transfers land (or funds set aside to purchase land) that it has acquired to the City of Houston or to the Houston Parks Board LGC, a local Ggvernment corporation that was formed to hold the parkland and improvements of HPB and to collect funds from the City and perhaps federal agencies. During this fiscal year, HPB transferred property to a community association which wanted to add the property to its community holdings but didn't have the means to purchase the property. Also during this fiscal year, the HPB Board approved a contribution of $150,000 to the newly formed Houston Parks Board Foundation, which holds endowment funds on behalf of HPB.HPB also acts as an agent for the City of Houston regarding certain funds that it maintains on behalf of the City. Two such funds provide scholarships to students. The Houston Parks and Recreation Department's A.S.K. Group and the First Tee Program determine the scholarship recipients and have HPB write a check directly to the school the student is attending. ASK and the First Tee Program monitor the initial and ongoing qualification of scholarship recipients, not HPB.
