Wilson County approves $153,169 in‑kind local match for Camino Real Community Services
Summary
Commissioners approved a $153,169 local match (in‑kind valuation of county office space) to continue Camino Real Community Services’ operations and crisis‑response services in Wilson County for FY2025.
The Wilson County Commissioners Court approved a local match commitment totaling $153,169 to Camino Real Community Services for fiscal year 2025 to support continued local mental‑health and crisis services.
Court materials, introduced by the clerk, noted Camino Real is the region’s local mental‑health authority and operates a local office off B Street that serves adult mental‑health clients and a crisis drop‑off for law‑enforcement referrals. An agency presenter (unnamed in the transcript) described the regional services network (17 counties served), the agency’s crisis residential facilities and veteran peer services.
The presenter said the $153,169 figure represents the county’s in‑kind contribution based on the office space valuation; the county also provides a paid crisis‑center location and has historically satisfied local match requirements through the in‑kind office provision. Commissioner Martin moved to approve the match; Commissioner Aiken seconded and the court approved the item by voice vote.
The presenter confirmed the office address as 1005 B Street and noted the center receives state funding and grants for inpatient psychiatric services and other programs. The county will sign the match documentation as directed by staff.
No amendments or conditions were recorded at the time of vote.
