County to seek DUI court operating grant to support impaired‑driver recovery programs
Summary
Jasmine Johnson asked the board to allow an application for an FY‑27 DUI court operating grant listed at $210,118.06 with a 15% match of $35,815.58, describing it as one of the county's largest public‑safety grant efforts.
County staff told the board they will apply for an FY‑27 DUI court operating grant that staff described as a large public‑safety grant for Troup County.
"This amount is $210,118.06 with the 15% local cash match of $35,815.58," Jasmine Johnson said, and argued the grant supports accountability and recovery for high‑risk impaired drivers in the county.
Staff said the required local match would be met from DATE funds and asked commissioners to take the application up at the evening meeting for formal consideration; no formal decision was made at the work session.
