Public Comment - This section provides the public the opportunity to address the Commissioners Court on any items on the Agenda.

| COURT TO DISCUSS AND ACT ON THE FOLLOWING: |
| |
CONSENT AGENDA: At most meetings, the Commissioners Court establishes a Consent Agenda. It consists of those Agenda Items which are routine or non-controversial, and which neither a member of the Commissioners court has asked to be pulled for discussion. Once the Commissioners Court has established the Consent Agenda, Agenda Items included on it will be voted upon in one vote, and will not be discussed separately unless requested by the County Judge or Commissioners.
The consent agenda has been created in order to give constituents the opportunity to view any and all pertinent backup information with reference to any item in the agenda. The objective of the consent agenda is for all Webb County constituents to be familiar with everyday county business and to demonstrate the transparency and fairness of this Commissioners Court.
The following Agenda Items are of a routine nature, and the Commissioners Court has received supporting materials for consideration. All of these Agenda Items will be passed with one vote without being discussed separately, unless a member of the Commissioners Court or the public requests that a particular Agenda Item be discussed. If so, that Agenda Item will be pulled from the Consent Agenda and discussed as part of the regular Agenda at the appropriate time. One vote will approve the remaining items on the Consent Agenda.

Discussion and possible action to authorize the Webb County Sheriff’s Office to apply to the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) for a Fiscal Year (FY) 2018 Justice for Families Program grant as coordinated, developed, written, and submitted by the Webb County Sheriff’s Office in conjunction with the 406th District Court and the Casa Misericordia Domestic Violence Shelter in the amount roughly estimated at $550,000 for full-time/part-time personnel, training/travel, leasing, utilities, contractual services, equipment/supplies, and other needs to support the Webb County Sheriff's Office Safe Haven Program, and designating the Webb County Judge as the authorized official in all matters pertaining to this grant; and any other matters incident thereto. This grant requires no cash and/or in-kind match. However, this grant only funds the provision of supervised visitation and safe visitation exchange of children and youth by and between parents in situations involving domestic violence, dating violence, child sexual abuse, sexual assault, or stalking (i.e. not cases of contentious divorces and/or general familial discord/strife regarding custodial legal matters that do not involve these types of violence crimes against women and/or children). Moreover, Webb County has assured the Webb County Sheriff's Office that a minimum of $55,000 of necessary funding per year will be provided through the Webb County budget to support the Safe Haven Program adequately.
Issue: The announcement of the closing of Safe Haven's doors (currently averted) was recent and unforeseeable, leaving the Sheriff's Office and the rest of Webb County scrambling to find the necessary resources to support the program and the families who have come to rely on its services. Thus, there is extremely limited funding now available to supply the staff and other needs for the Safe Haven Program, which provides for secure and supervised visitations and safe exchanges of minor children in the Laredo/Webb County community. This is a crucial need in the local community for families who have experienced contentious custody disputes, allegations of child abuse/neglect, a documented history of family/domestic violence, and other allegations of physical confrontations and/or severe familial discord.
Solution: Apply for grant funds to help secure funding to help fund the needs of the program and its participants from the community.
Result: If grant funded, the Webb County/Laredo community’s needs for this type of service will be met. Serious familial violence can be diminished and/or prevented through this program. Click to View |
