Anna would pay Collin County $303,778 this fiscal year for the Sheriff's Office to handle its emergency dispatching, under a contract extension on the county's Oct. 19 agenda.

The amendment to Anna's interlocal dispatch agreement (contract No. 2021-382) runs from Oct. 1, 2026, through Sept. 30, 2027. On top of the base payment, the budget office lists $4,678 for warrant work and $6,804 in PAWM fees. The county books the money as revenue to its general fund.

The agreement can be renewed in one-year steps at a rate both sides agree on, according to the Sheriff's Office request.

Anna ISD has its own dispatch agreement with the county. Its extension calls for $20,337 plus $756 in PAWM fees for the same 12 months.

Renewals for several other local governments sit beside Anna's on the consent agenda, each the fifth amendment to its agreement:

  • Melissa Fire Department: $145,125, plus $5,292 in PAWM fees
  • City of Lavon: $184,249, plus $1,977 for warrants and $4,320 in PAWM fees
  • City of Josephine: $129,541, plus $241 for warrants and $2,916 in PAWM fees
  • Farmersville ISD: $32,347, plus $1,296 in PAWM fees

The Josephine Fire Department's newer agreement gets its first amendment, at $78,406 plus $2,916 in PAWM fees.

Also on the Oct. 19 agenda

Commissioners will consider a no-cost memorandum of understanding between the Sheriff's Office and LifePath Systems setting up a working relationship on mental health through Aug. 31, 2027. They will also take up a $5,749,173 first guaranteed maximum price with Crossland Construction for the Collin County Courthouse expansion, limited to civil sitework and drilled piers and paid from 2023 bond funds.

The court meets at 1:30 p.m. Monday, Oct. 19, on the fourth floor of the Jack Hatchell Administration Building, 2300 Bloomdale Road in McKinney.
