Discuss, consider and take appropriate action on the approval authorizing an amendment to the grant award from the Office of the Governor, Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) for the Hazmat Response Trailer Replacement Project pending FEMA approval.

Last year Williamson County was awarded funding from the Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) to replace one of our hazardous materials response trailers. Since then, Williamson County has made numerous attempts to solicit bids from vendors to begin the building process. During this time, we struggled to locate a vendor that could meet the needs of the specifications due to factors such as pricing within range of the award amount, availability of materials due to covid restrictions, and project completion time. To overcome these issues, Williamson County was granted an extension on executing the award in hopes that we could locate a vendor that could complete the project. Unfortunately, these issues continue to present the same challenges.
