Background and Discussion:

At Commissioners Court request, OMB was directed to submit an updated Public Improvement Contingency Fund Use Policy that will allow for upfront allocations for Commissioner Precinct use in the case of a countywide emergency.

 

 

 

Expected Impact:

Adoptions will allow for more efficient issuing of emergency purchase orders in the case of countywide emergencies so that general funds are not tied up pending a reimbursement from the PIC fund.  Purchases will be recorded directly to the PIC fund.

 

 

Alternative Options:

Leave current policy as is and continue to process emergency purchases with department general funds (or other funding sources) and await for reimbursement from the PIC fund.

 

 

Alignment with Goal(s):

_ Justice and Safety

_ Economic Opportunity

_ Housing

_ Public Health

_ Transportation

_ Flooding

_ Environment

X Governance and Customer Service
