Dan Caruso moved to approve submission of the grant application; Ken Shelton seconded and the motion carried with seven ayes.
Hays also requested appropriation of $12,300 in funds that community corrections had earned under the grant. Council approved appropriations of $10,125 to account 9106‑255‑3000.01 (Miscellaneous Disbursement/Community Transit) and $2,175 to account 9106‑255‑3000.02 (LaGrange Jail CTP).
