Fiscal court approves $7,000 traffic‑safety grant application for sheriff's office
Summary
Spencer County Fiscal Court approved applying for and accepting a $7,000 reimbursable traffic‑safety grant to support seat‑belt enforcement and nighttime patrols by the sheriff’s office.
County officials presented a $7,000 grant opportunity from a highway‑safety program to support seat‑belt enforcement and other high‑visibility patrols. A representative said the program is fully reimbursable and similar to prior years’ initiatives. The court voted to approve the grant application and acceptance so the sheriff's office can continue enforcement and education efforts.
"We have a motion by Dax, 2nd by Will, to approve the grant ... in the amount of $7,000 to the sheriff's office," the chair said before the court adopted the measure on a voice vote. Staff noted the county will need to maintain citation/recording practices to meet reimbursement requirements.
