Jordan Bogey, a county staff member, told the council that the mental-health sales-tax advisory board has finalized the calendar for the 2027 grant program funded by local mental-health sales-tax revenues.
"That RFP for external applicants should be released right around July 1st, and we have an August 11th submission date for those external proposals," Bogey said. He said the grants will support community projects related to mental and behavioral health and urged potential applicants to monitor the county website for the announcement.
Bogey said the advisory board finalized timelines during a recent meeting and emphasized that external applicants will have until August 11 to submit proposals for consideration. No awards were made at the meeting and council did not take formal action; staff said they will post the RFP and accept proposals according to the announced schedule.
