The commissioners approved Resolution CC25-01 to support the Victims of Crime Act grant for the county’s victim services position; staff said the application seeks about $140,000 with a required 20% match and is due Thursday.

The Coryell County Commissioners Court voted to approve Resolution CC25-01 supporting a Victims of Crime Act grant application to fund the county’s victim services position. The judge introduced the resolution and asked the county’s victim services staff to summarize the application before the court approved it by voice vote.

“This is one step that we have to check off…we're asking for a little over a $140,000 from the government on this, and we'll have a 20% cash match,” Brandy Rhodes said as she described the application deadline and matching requirement. Rhodes asked the court to approve the county’s resolution certifying support for the grant; Commissioner Matthews moved to approve and Commissioner Taylor seconded the motion, which carried.

The court’s action authorizes staff to proceed with submission of the application by the stated deadline. No amendment or alternative funding source was recorded during the discussion.
