Title
Approving a City of Pflugerville and Travis County Emergency Services District No. 2 Interlocal Agreement for Administration of CRF Funding under the Cares Act and authorize the Mayor to execute said agreement.
Summary
On July 14, 2020, Council provided direction to the City Manager regarding the allocation of CARES Act funding to be received through an interlocal agreement (ILA) with Travis County, to include a transfer of up to $150,000 to Travis County Emergency Services District No. 2 (ESD2) for covid-related expenses.
To facilitate this transfer, an interlocal agreement with ESD2 was created following the format of the ILA between the City and Travis County and sets a “not to exceed amount” of $150,000 to be transferred to ESD2. In short, ESD2 is held to the same standards as the City is held to by the County.
Staff continues to pursue additional CARES Act eligible expenses for the City as guidance from the US Treasury evolves and recognizes the possibility of additional unforeseen covid-related expenses prior to October. By setting a not to exceed amount, we are agreeing to transfer up to $150,000, provided there is still funding left in October after all City needs have been met.
