The Henry County Board of Commissioners voted at its April 7 regular meeting to approve several measures regarding the receipt of grant funds from the Office of the Governor’s Criminal Justice Coordinating Council. The board authorized grant applications for the 2021 fiscal year on behalf of several of the county’s accountability courts, including the Henry County Felony Drug Court, Henry County Resource Court and Henry County Veterans Treatment Court.
Also approved was a resolution accepting a $70,000 Violence Against Women grant with matching funds of $23,333. The board’s consent agenda included a list of 92 country assets declared surplus for sale at auction, as well as a resolution authorizing a grant application for improvements at Turner Church Road and Hwy. 20, for which the Georgia Department of Transportation has committed $500,000.
