Sinton ISD approves JET Grant equipment purchase and $18,000 match from fund balance
Summary
Trustees approved equipment purchases funded by the Texas Workforce JET Grant and authorized up to $18,000 from fund balance to meet the grant match requirement, both by unanimous votes.
The board approved a Texas Workforce JET Grant equipment purchase and separately approved up to $18,000 from fund balance to meet the grant's match requirement on Feb. 16.
Trustee Richard Gingrich moved to approve the JET Grant equipment purchase; Trustee Crystal Saldaña seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Trustee Thomas Bowers then moved to approve use of fund balance not to exceed $18,000 for the grant match; Trustee Danny Lorberau seconded and the board approved the expenditure 7–0. The minutes list the actions and dollar cap for the match but do not provide a vendor or equipment line-item list in the public text.
The JET Grant (Jobs & Education for Texans) typically requires local matching funds; the board's approval secures the local match cap recorded in the minutes so staff can finalize procurement and grant compliance steps.
