Meeting Date:	08/23/2021
DWI Court
Submitted for:	Cesia Rodriguez	Submitted By:	Cesia Rodriguez
Department:	County Court At Law #2

Subject:

Discussion and possible action to ratify the County Court-at-Law II DWI Court Program submission of a Year 4, non-competing Continuation Grant Application for SAMHSA Grant #TI-081049 (TI-18-008) in the amount of Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000.00) and authorizing the County Judge to execute all relevant documents; and any other matters incident thereto. This grant solicitation has been reviewed, and is compliant with SPOC. There will be no impact to the General Fund. [Requested by County Court at Law #2 - DWI Court Program]

Issue: The grant application was submitted on June 11, 2021 so as not to lose the grant funds. Grant funds have been already awarded for the next 5 years. The grant is currently entering year 4 out of the 5. However, it is required by the funding agency to submit a non-competing continuation application for each individual year of the grant. Thus, since it is the intention of County Court-at-Law II to continue to renew services under the grant over the next 5 years, a non-competing continuation application will be submitted by the DWI Court Program to continue services for year 4.

Solution: Ratify the submission of the continuation application as submitted in order to allow DWI Court Program, to continue to offer services under the grant for year 4.

Result: Webb County Court-at-Law II will continue to remain in compliance with SPOC, and with the submission rules and regulations set for by the funding agency.

Background:

This grant has previously been approved and awarded for the next 5 years (2018-2023). The DWI Court is entering year 4 out of 5 of the grant.
