Agenda Item

Discuss and take appropriate action regarding a Resolution from the Commissioner's Court supporting the application for the DWI/Drug Court grant from the Office of the Governor, Criminal Justice Division. To grant the concept of the DWI/Drug Court with the application for the funding.

Background

The Williamson County CSCD (Adult Probation) with the support of the County Court-at-Law #2, established the DWI/Drug Court in 2006 through the Office of the Governor, Criminal Justice Division. The DWI/Drug Court was created to deal with the offender charged with misdemeanors involving arrests for drugs and impaired driving. The grant will not burden Williamson County for any additional funds; and the funds needed to "match" will be provided through the CSCD.
The grant requires a resolution approved by the presiding County Commissioner's Court supporting the application for the DWI/Drug Court grant. The said resolution is attached.
