The court authorized contracts for administrative services to pursue a TDEM Hazard Mitigation Grant (DR #4705) with Public Management, Inc., and a USDOT RAISE grant with Langford Community Management Service, Inc.; both approvals were unanimous.
Burleson County Commissioners Court on Sept. 11 approved two separate contracts to secure administrative services for competitive grant applications.
The court approved a resolution to contract with Public Management, Inc. for application and potential implementation work related to the Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) DR #4705. The motion to approve the HMGP administrative-services contract was moved by Commissioner Vincent Svec, seconded by Commissioner Dwayne Faust and carried unanimously.
Separately, the court approved a contract with Langford Community Management Service, Inc. to provide administrative services for an application to the U.S. Department of Transportation’s RAISE discretionary grant program; Commissioner Dwayne Faust moved the motion, Commissioner David Hildebrand seconded it, and the court voted aye.
Both motions authorize the county to proceed with application work and provide for implementation if awarded. The motions and attachments on file specify the contractors and program names; no contract amounts were stated in the meeting record.
County staff will proceed with application steps as authorized by the court.
