Jacinto City awards DRRP RFP contract to Grant Works
Summary
On Jan. 9, 2025 the Jacinto City Council voted 4-0 to award a contract to Grant Works to manage a GLO Disaster Recovery Reimbursement Program (DRRP) grant after staff said the state reclaimed unused funds from earlier recipients and offered the city the award.
Jacinto City Council voted 4-0 on Jan. 9, 2025 to award the city's RFP for DRRP grant management to Grant Works.
City Manager Squyres explained the RFP seeks a firm to manage the application process and ongoing grant administration for a GLO grant that the city said was returned to the state when previous recipients failed to spend the funds in time. "There was only one RFP Submitted, Grant Works," the City Manager said during the presentation. He told the council the federal code and the grant rules require a structured review and scoring process of proposals before the council acts.
Council Member Rivas moved to grant the contract to Grant Works; Council Member Gonzales seconded the motion. The minutes record the outcome as "Favor: 4/0." The council did not record individual roll-call votes in the minutes for this motion.
The City Manager said the RFP response package requires engineering pricing and specs for potential public-works work as part of the application, and that the city had issued a separate RFQ to find engineering firms. The council took the single award and then proceeded to consider the RFQ results for engineering support. Mayor Diaz adjourned the meeting at 6:09 p.m.
The contract award is effective as recorded in the council minutes; the minutes do not specify contract value, term, or start date.
