Discussion and possible action to submit the 2020 Webb County Resolution for year two of the Webb County Integrated Defense Project, and the 2020 Improvement Grant Program Intent to Submit Multi-year Grant Renewal to T.I.D.C. The renewal includes the additional $6,116.65 in which Webb County will provide 40% of that amount, and T.I.D.C. will provide 60%, effective October 1, 2019. [Requested by Virginia Aranda, Public Defender]

Issue: Amount awarded and approved for year two is $112,335.61 from T.I.D.C. (60%) and $74,890.40 from Webb County (40%). The $6,116.65 is in addition to the grant award. These additional funds will cover the increase in cost for fringe benefits for both positions, and the proposed salary increase for the Social Worker. The new amount for year two will be $116,005.60 from T.I.D.C. (60%) and $77,337.06 from Webb County (40%). Therefore, the new commitment for year two for Webb County will increase by $2,447.00 and $3,670.00 for T.I.D.C.
