Court approves $200,000 pay application for retention‑pond work pending GLO reimbursement

The court approved Pay Application No. 1 in the amount of $200,000 for a retention‑pond project tied to a Texas GLO grant (Contract No. 22‑085‑027‑D268). The contractor was recorded in the transcript as "RxDX" (transcription unclear); the county authorized payment now with the expectation of later reimbursement through the GLO process.

Lucy Cook Hildreth of GrantWorks, which is administering the grant for the county, described delays at the GLO caused by staff changes and additional documentation requirements and said the pay request covering May "is currently in the the 2nd stage" of review. She said that, once through management review, the draw typically moves to financial review and then to payment release. Commissioners said they would monitor GLO progress and watch for reimbursement.
