Commissioners rescind acceptance of ICAC award, cite insufficient funding
Summary
Burleson County Commissioners voted to rescind acceptance of the Office of the Attorney General’s Internet Crime Against Children (ICAC) award for April–August 2026, saying the award’s funding level was insufficient to support the program.
Burleson County Commissioners voted unanimously to rescind their April 13, 2026 acceptance of the Office of the Attorney General’s Internet Crime Against Children (ICAC) award covering April 1–August 31, 2026, citing an insufficient level of funding.
Commissioner David Hildebrand made the motion and Commissioner Dwayne Faust seconded. The minutes state the rescission was taken because funding would not be sufficient to support the program as offered. No substitute funding was identified during the meeting, and the court recorded no further directive to seek alternative grant matches in this session.
The rescission removes the county’s acceptance of the award as previously recorded on April 13. The court did not discuss an appeal or next steps during this meeting; any future action would require a subsequent court agenda item and motion.
