Dimmit County Commissioners approved a resolution certifying a county grant of $175,000 to Community Service Agencies of South Texas, Inc., a nonprofit that provides home‑delivered meals to homebound residents. The certification allows the organization to apply for funds under the Texas Department of Agriculture’s home‑delivered meal grant program for the 2025 program year.
The resolution states the county has reviewed and approved the organization’s accounting system or fiscal agent and confirms the organization provides home‑delivered meals to persons who are elderly or have a disability in the county. The $175,000 county grant is designated for use between Sept. 24 and Aug. 2025 and is required under program rules for the organization’s eligibility.
The county read the resolution into the record and adopted it by affirmative vote. Judge and staff signatures and standard certification language were included in the adopted document.
Next steps: Community Service Agencies of South Texas may proceed with the state grant application; county staff will monitor compliance with the Texas Department of Agriculture program rules and fiscal reporting requirements.
