City announces 100% reimbursement grant for Wal Worth Harrison Library improvements
Summary
Staff announced a 100% reimbursement grant from the Texas State Library and Archives Commission to fund library infrastructure, including privacy/telemedicine booths; staff will return for contract approval once paperwork is complete.
City staff told the council the city received a grant from the Texas State Library and Archives Commission to fund library infrastructure improvements, including a private telemedicine/study booth area. The grant is reimbursement-based and will cover eligible costs at 100 percent, staff said.
"It is a reimbursement grant. It's a 100% reimbursement grama as well," a staff member said during the meeting and added the grant will fund a two-person privacy/telemedicine booth and other infrastructure improvements. Staff said they will return to council on the 23rd with the contract for formal approval when the paperwork is ready.
Why it matters: The grant will fund privacy and telemedicine infrastructure in the Wal Worth Harrison Library without needing local matching dollars for eligible costs.
What’s next: Staff will present the grant contract for council approval on a future agenda and proceed with procurement once the reimbursement contract is executed.
