Duties

The Richwood Crime Control and Prevention District was created as a special district with the same boundaries as the City and was authorized in 2009 by a vote of the citizens of Richwood.  It is funded entirely by a local sales and use tax of 1/4 percent.

The district is managed by a seven-member board who are appointed by the City Council.  The CCPD Board establishes the annual budget and policies, oversees expenditures and evaluates programs funded by the district.  The CCPD also provides supplemental funding to assist the Richwood Police Department in fighting and preventing crime.

Meetings

The CCPD meets quarterly as scheduled at Richwood City Hall, 1800 Brazosport Blvd, Richwood, TX
