At the Monday Commissioner’s Court meeting, two items on the agenda were rejected following tense negotiations.
The first, a request to ratify an application that had been sent to Homeland Security for a grant for FY 2012, estimated to be $74,020 if awarded and with no local match to the county, died for lack of a majority vote.
The grant, had it been awarded, was to go to the purchase of software that would enhance communication for officers while on patrol.
