Commission Court authorizes contract with Public Management for HMGP grant work
Summary
The court authorized execution of a contract with Public Management to provide grant management services for a Hazard Mitigation Grant Program drainage improvement at Great Creek; staff said Public Management was selected through procurement in 2023 but billing occurs only if a grant is awarded.
Sam informed the court that Public Management was selected through the county’s procurement process in 2023 to provide grant management services and that formal contracting is required now that the county has a Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) award for drainage improvements at Great Creek.
Sam said Public Management “doesn't actually contract or bill us unless we get under contract with a grant,” and that the current action would formalize that partnership for the HMGP/TDEM project. Commissioners moved, seconded and the motion carried to execute the contract.
The action formalizes grant management support for a hazard mitigation drainage project funded through HMGP and administered with TDEM. Staff did not provide contract dollar amounts in the transcript; staff indicated the firm will bill only if the grant is active.
