Missouri City council approves applications for TxDOT Click It and Operation Slowdown grants
Summary
Council unanimously authorized staff to apply for two TxDOT enforcement grants — Click It (May) and Operation Slowdown (July) — requesting $3,745 each with a required $749 match, each covering a two-week enforcement period.
Missouri City Council unanimously approved staff requests to apply for two Texas Department of Transportation enforcement grants: the Click It campaign in May and an Operation Slowdown period in July. Both are two-week grant opportunities; staff said they are requesting $3,745 with a $749 local match for each.
Rachel Marie, the presenter, told council: "These are both two-week period grants ... The total amount is $3,745. The match amount is $749." Council members voted to submit the applications, which would fund targeted enforcement periods intended to increase seat-belt use and reduce speeding during the specified enforcement windows. Staff indicated they would return with standard grant documentation if the applications are successful.
