Fulton County authorizes two state probation grants totaling $63,800
Summary
The board authorized Chairman Randy H. Bunch to sign a $35,000 Intermediate Punishment Treatment Grant and a $28,800 Continuing County Adult Probation/Parole Grant for 2025–2026, and acknowledged a retention stipend proposal for probation staff.
At the Dec. 9 meeting, Chief Probation Officer Dan Miller asked the Fulton County Board of Commissioners to approve two state grants to fund probation programming for 2025–2026.
Commissioners authorized Commissioner Randy H. Bunch to sign a 2025–2026 Intermediate Punishment Treatment Grant in the amount of $35,000 and a 2025–2026 Continuing County Adult Probation/Parole Grant in the amount of $28,800. Both authorizations were moved (Wible and Hann) and approved unanimously, according to the minutes.
The commissioners also acknowledged a Retention Efforts Letter from Chief Probation Officer Miller proposing that a stipend be funded from the monthly supervision fee and kept in a restricted account that can only be spent by the President Judge for the Adult Probation Department. The board recorded the acknowledgment with no recorded opposition.
The minutes do not specify program-level budget breakdowns, performance metrics, or a timetable for expenditure. County staff will execute required grant-signature steps following the board’s authorization.
