DeWitt County Brings on Firm to Help Distribute Over $4-Million in COVID Funding

DeWitt County between now and 2022 will have over $4-million to distribute in COVID relief funds.

 

Because of the complications in where the money can or cannot go, the County has decided to bring on a firm to help distribute this money. DeWitt County Board Chair Terry Ferguson indicates the process is rather complicated and would be too much for Administrator DeeDee Rentmeister.

 

 

According to Ferguson, the company, Bellweather, will work with the DeWitt County Development Council to help distribute these funds to the community. He says the rules on this are growing and getting more complicated and any violation of those rules could be more costly than bringing on a firm to help.

 

 

Ferguson indicates those funds could start going out as soon as 60 days.
