Board unanimously extends performance period for homeland security grants to 2028
Summary
By roll call the Board of Aldermen approved extending the performance period for several FY26 Homeland Security grant projects to Aug. 31, 2028; the extension provides more time for federally funded procurements and does not add funding, passing 14–0.
The Board of Aldermen voted unanimously on July 27 to accept extensions for several FY26 Homeland Security grant projects, moving the federal grant performance period to Aug. 31, 2028. The clerk called the roll and the board recorded a 14–0 vote for final passage on the resolution, which staff said provides additional time to complete procurement of specialized equipment without changing grant dollar amounts.
City staff noted the extension is administrative—grant timelines are lengthened to align procurement with federal requirements—and does not increase city costs. The unanimous vote followed a procedural motion and roll-call confirmations; the board adjourned the special meeting at 8:36 p.m.
