The Court next considered Budget Amendment #08/09-31.1 through 31.7 that would reallocate funds for Emergency Management (2), Brazos Center, Metropolitan Planning Organization, District Attorney, JP Technology Fund; and transfer funds from Contingency to Sheriff Office: Jail Division.

If approved, this action will qualify Brazos County to receive State and Federal medical resources in the event of activation as a MSN site. Chuck Frazier, Emergency Management Coordinator and Mike Paulus with the Brazos County Health Department were present to answer questions. Mr. Paulus thought that because of the flooring at the Brazos Center, the Expo Center might be better. Supplies are brought in on pallets.
