Summary

The county agreed to hold County Attorney SB 22 monies in the county account and approved using $10,000 to pay a Misdemeanor Crime Victim's Coordinator, appointing Stacey Lamb to the role in addition to her current duties.

Parmer County Commissioners on April 8 approved using $10,000 from SB 22 grant funds to pay a Misdemeanor Crime Victim's Coordinator and recorded the County Attorney's decision to keep SB 22 funds in the county account rather than in a separate attorney-controlled account.

According to the agenda entry, the County Attorney requested the funds be used for salary and appointed Stacey Lamb to the coordinator role. Commissioner Kenny White moved to approve the expenditure from the SB 22 monies; Commissioner Charles Wilkins seconded and the motion passed by majority vote.

The court did not state whether the $10,000 is a one-time allocation or an annual salary; the County Attorney's office will need to confirm whether this is a recurring line item and whether additional position support or reclassification is required. The agenda packet includes an itemized SB 22 distribution but the details were not read aloud during the meeting.
