Subject:

Discussion and possible action to submit the 2021 Webb County Resolution for year three of the Webb County Integrated Defense Project, and the 2021 Improvement Grant Program Intent to Submit Multi-year Grant Renewal to Texas Indigent Defense Commission (T.I.D.C.). The renewal includes the additional $3,405.15 in which Webb County will provide 60% of that amount, and T.I.D.C. will provide 40%, effective October 1, 2020. [Requested by Virginia Aranda, Public Defender]

Issue: Amount awarded and approved for year three is $77,337.06 from T.I.D.C. (40%) and $116,005.60 from Webb County (60%). The $3,405.15 is in addition to the grant award. These additional funds will cover the increase in cost for fringe benefits for both positions. The new amount for year three will be $78,699.12 from T.I.D.C. (40%) and $118,048.69 from Webb County (60%). Therefore, the new commitment for year three for Webb County will increase by $2,043.09 and $1,362.06 for T.I.D.C.

Solution: Allow to submit the grant renewal form and resolution for continuation of this grant funded program.

Result: Will be able to continue with the Webb County Integrated Defense Project.
