Court authorizes application for VOCA victim advocacy grant; county judge designated authorized official
Summary
The court approved a resolution allowing the county to apply for the Fiscal Year 2027 VOCA victim advocacy grant, designating the county judge as the authorized official and the county auditor as financial officer; the DA's office noted updated state language prompted the refile.
The commissioners approved a resolution authorizing Lubbock County to apply for the Fiscal Year 2027 Victim Advocacy Project grant administered by the Office of the Governor (VOCA). Eddie Wharf of the District Attorney's Office said the county had previously approved similar language in December but that the state changed the application language, prompting the corrected resolution.
The resolution designates the county judge as the authorized official to apply for, accept, reject, alter or terminate the grant on behalf of Lubbock County, and designates the county auditor as the financial officer authorized to submit required financial or programmatic reports. The court approved the resolution by motion and unanimous vote.
