Board accepts two FY26 enhancement innovation grants for drug court and mental health court
Summary
Troup County accepted two grants supporting the felony adult drug court and mental health court — $28,280 (with $4,009.91 match) and $23,820 (with $4,204 match) — with matches to be covered from a designated county fund.
County Manager presented two FY26 enhancement innovation grant awards for the felony adult drug court and the mental health court and asked the board to accept them. He said the county received one grant for $28,280 with a required match of $4,009.91 and a second for $23,820 with a $4,204 match; the matches would come from the county's designated fund.
"We've got, 2 separate grants. 1 in the amount of $28,280 with a match of $4,009.91, and then a 2nd grant in the amount of $23,820, and a grant match of $4,204," the County Manager said when summarizing the awards. Commissioners approved a consolidated motion referring to the relevant programs (FDAC and MHC) and accepted the awards. The transcript records the motion carried by voice vote; no roll-call was recorded.
Staff indicated the matches are available from county funds and that earlier discussion had reviewed program details. The action allows program staff to apply grant funds to the adult drug court and mental health court activities identified in the award applications.
