Montgomery County certifies local government approval for Friendship Mission’s $210,356 ESG award
Summary
The Commission approved a Certification of Local Government Approval for Friendship Mission to receive $210,356 in Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funds; the memo said no county financial contribution was required.
Montgomery County commissioners voted March 3 to approve a Certification of Local Government Approval supporting Friendship Mission’s Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) award.
County materials identify Friendship Mission’s project (HESG-25-003) to provide emergency shelter and rapid rehousing services in the City of Montgomery. The memo from Deputy Administrator Regina Walker states $210,356 was awarded and that the certification does not require a county financial contribution.
Chairman Doug Singleton signed the certification included in the packet. The motion to approve was moved by Vice Chairman Carmen Moore‑Zeigler and seconded by Commissioner Harris; the measure carried unanimously.
Why it matters: The certification is an administrative step required to accept ESG funds and allow the subrecipient—Friendship Mission—to proceed with shelter and rapid‑rehousing activities funded by ADECA (the state administering agency).
