Montague County Commissioners will apply for their portion of the County Transportation Infrastructure Fund when the process opens April 27.
The court met via video conference for its regular second Monday session.
During the original CTIF program in 2014, Montague County received $2,664,128 in state funds to repair roads damaged by energy production primarily stemming from the Barnett Shale push. The State Legislature had allocated $224,500,000 for the funds.
The 2020 round has about $250 million budgeted to be allocated across 254 counties. Lewis said he and Commissioner Bob Langford attended a school about the application process and learned the county may receive $365,179 in the 80(state)-20 (county) match program.

The following indictments were filed with the 97th District Clerk following the November session of the Montague County Grand Jury.
There were a total of 13 indictments with one sealed awaiting the arrest of a suspect.
A grand jury indictment is not evidence of guilt. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
