Meeting Date:	06/14/2021
DWI Court
Submitted for:	Cesia Rodriguez	Submitted By:	Cesia Rodriguez
Department:	County Court At Law #2

Subject:

Discussion and possible action to authorize the submission of the County Court-at-Law 2 DWI Court Program Year 4, non-competing Continuation Grant Application for SAMHSA Grant #TI-081049 (TI-18-008); and authorizing the Webb County Judge to execute all relevant documents; and any other matters incident thereto. This grant application does not require a cash match; thus, will have no impact to the general fund. All required documents were sent for review through the Economic Development Department and the solicitation is compliant with the Webb County Single Point of Contact (SPOC) procedures. [Requested by Judge Victor Villarreal, County Court at Law #2]

Issue: The grant application was submitted on May 24, 2021 so as not to lose the grant funds. Grant funds have already been awarded for the next 5 years. 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 2 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 the DWI Court Program to continue to offer services under the grant for year 4.

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

Background:

Grant has previously been approved and awarded for 5 years. (2018 through 2022)
