Summary

Commissioners recorded a county commitment to provide a 50% match for a $3 million Community Crossings grant application; Howard County's share would be $1.5 million from the county's MBH fund if the grant is awarded.

Howard County commissioners recorded a commitment that the county would provide its required 50% match if a pending Community Crossings grant application is awarded.

An official identified in the meeting as Amber said county staff submitted the Community Crossings grant application late the prior week. The total grant request is $3,000,000; because the county is a 50/50 split partner in the program, Amber said Howard County's commitment would be $1,500,000. She said the funding would come from the county MBH fund and asked that the commitment be entered into the record.

The board acknowledged the commitment and placed the information on the record. Commissioners did not vote on an appropriation at the meeting; the commitment is contingent on the grant award. No timeline or conditional approvals beyond recording the commitment were specified in the meeting record.
