Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to accept eGrant Award No. 4015401, on behalf of the City of Lubbock, from the Texas Homeland Security Grant Division, Office of the Governor.
Item Summary
The Texas Homeland Security Grants Division (HSGD) of the Governor’s Office supports local and regional efforts to prevent terrorism and other catastrophic events, and to prepare for the threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk to the security of Texas citizens. The purpose is to support state, tribal, and local preparedness activities that address high-priority preparedness gaps across all core capabilities where a connection to terrorism exists.
