Alamo seeks $150,000 Operation Stonegarden grant to fund overtime and vehicle costs
Summary
City staff told commissioners the city is applying for $150,000 from the Governor's Operation Stonegarden program — $140,000 for overtime and $10,000 for vehicle maintenance/fuel — and the commission approved submittal of the application.
The City of Alamo will apply for a fiscal-year 2025 Operation Stonegarden grant, staff told the commission.
Agency official (speaker 14) said last year the chief received $116,000 under the program and that the city is seeking $150,000 this year: "This year, we're applying for a 150,000, which a 140,000 will be for overtime and 10,000 will be for vehicle mains, which is for fuel." The commission approved the application by voice vote.
Staff said the grant submittal is part of a packet of deadline-driven applications (the speaker referenced a March 12 deadline). The funds, if awarded, would be targeted to overtime for public-safety personnel and vehicle-related expenses; final award and allocation would depend on the grant review process.
