Commissioners Court Finalizes Audit Can Now Receive Grants for County

The county audit that was putting holds on the county receiving grants has finally been finished. Now that the audit is complete the hold on all incoming grants will now be lifted.

Sheriff Scaman has sent in an application to reach an agreement with the State of Texas to receive military grade weapons and equipment from the Department of Defense.

This agreement will in no way place a charge on the county, unless it is a piece of equipment that requires maintenance for upkeep (i.e. vehicles). A condition of the agreement is that the Sheriff ’s office is responsible for maintaining and enforcing regulation designed to impose adequate security measures for controlled property to mitigate the risk of loss or theft. These properties granted by the DOD cannot be sold or transferred to non-US persons. All transfers must be approved by the State and the Disposition Services.
