St. Francois County approves application for $28,985.50 Blue Shield grant to fund body‑worn cameras
Summary
County staff told commissioners the non‑matching SFY Blue Shield award of $28,985.50 would be used to pay annual fees for the county's body‑worn camera system; the commission voted to seek permission to apply.
The St. Francois County Commission voted to seek permission to apply for a SFY Blue Shield grant worth $28,985.50 to support the county's body‑worn camera system.
County staff explained the Blue Shield award is non‑matching and that the full $28,985.50 would be applied toward the annual fee for the current body‑worn camera system. "It will be for our annual fee for our body worn camera system," staff stated during the discussion.
Chair (speaker 1) moved for permission to apply and Commissioner (speaker 4) seconded the motion; the commission then approved the request by roll call. Commissioners did not attach additional conditions to the application during the meeting.
The request will now move to staff for formal application paperwork; commissioners asked staff to provide any required roll‑call documentation and to confirm the grant deadline when the application is submitted.
