Jourdanton council joins cities coalition on AEP Rider filing and authorizes grant-administration solicitation
Summary
Council approved a resolution authorizing participation in AEP Texas Inc.'s Rider Mobile TEEEF amendment before the Public Utility Commission of Texas and voted to solicit proposals for grant administration for a Local Park Grant; both motions passed unanimously.
At its May 18 meeting the Jourdanton City Council unanimously approved a resolution authorizing the city's participation in AEP Texas Inc.'s application to amend its Rider Mobile Temporary Emergency Electric Energy Facilities (TEEEF) before the Public Utility Commission of Texas and to join the Cities Served by AEP Texas coalition. Councilmember Karen Pesek made the motion; Councilmember Raul Morales seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
Separately, the council authorized staff to solicit proposals for grant-administration services related to the city's Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Local Park Grant application. Councilmember Pesek moved and Councilmember Pamela Manning seconded that motion; it carried unanimously.
Both actions are administrative and procedural steps: the AEP resolution positions the city to intervene or participate in a PUCT proceeding through a coalition, while the solicitation for grant administration initiates a competitive procurement to support the Local Park Grant application. Final outcomes (contract awards or legal filings) will require subsequent staff recommendations or ordinance/resolution language brought back to council.
