Court authorizes county grant to qualify for 2027 home-delivered meals program
Summary
Tyler County approved a resolution to provide a county cash grant and establish eligibility for a 2027 home-delivered meals grant from the Texas Department of Agriculture. Angelina County Senior Center leaders told the court they delivered more than 22,000 meals in the county last year.
Tyler County Commissioners Court on Aug. 10 approved a resolution authorizing a county cash grant and establishing local eligibility for a 2027 home-delivered meals grant from the Texas Department of Agriculture.
Cynthia Morales, executive director of the Angelina County Senior Center, told the court the center delivers four frozen meals and one hot meal to program participants on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and that "we delivered over 22,000 meals last year" in the county. She said the Texas Department of Agriculture requires an applicant organization to have a cash grant from the county in which services are provided, which is why the center asked the court to adopt the resolution.
The court moved and seconded the resolution and approved it by voice vote with no recorded opposition. The motion was presented as a routine eligibility action to allow the local nonprofit to apply for state grant funds to support home-delivered meal services.
Court members did not request further changes to the resolution; staff will proceed with the county signature and any subsequent application steps required by the Texas Department of Agriculture.
