Consideration of a resolution amending resolution 251216-6 to reduce the amount requested for the FY 27 and FY28 grant application to the WY Supreme Court, Wyoming Court Supervised Treatment Program Grant, from $628,583.52 to $601,279.60 to fund the DUI Court Program.

Summary

This resolution amends Resolution No. 251216-6 to reduce the total funding request for the FY2027 and FY2028 Wyoming Court Supervised Treatment Program Grant. The original request was $628,583.52, and it is being reduced to $601,279.60. This reduction is necessary because the Wyoming Judicial Branch is considering the county's surcharge amounts when calculating the required 25% match. The county's matching funds commitment remains unchanged at $78,000 for FY2027 and $78,000 for FY2028. Sandra Newland is appointed as the grant contact, and Fernando Muzquiz is authorized to implement the grant-funded programs for the Laramie County DUI Court.

Citizen Impact

This change will reduce the grant funding requested for the Laramie County DUI Court program, though the county's financial commitment remains the same. Residents can expect the DUI Court program to continue operating with slightly less external grant funding.
