At the start of its meeting the Jefferson County Board approved a resolution authorizing application for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) of up to $2,200,000.

County staff told the board the funds would be used for an emergency shelter and construction of a basketball court. The manager said the state had extended the grant application deadline to May 20 and that the county's citizen advisory task force previously recommended the proposed uses. A commissioner moved to approve the resolution and the board voiced its support; no roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript.

The item will be part of the county's grant application package and requires a second public hearing before final submission, county staff said.
