The Union County Board of County Commissioners convened on September 24, 2025, to discuss a range of resolutions presented by various departments. The meeting began with County Prosecutor Daniel introducing three resolutions from the Prosecutor's Office, which were met with no questions from the commissioners.
Following this, Director Laura Scutari of the Department of Administrative Services presented two resolutions, also receiving no inquiries. Deputy County Manager Amy Wagner then addressed the Department of Economic Development, presenting two resolutions. During her presentation, she highlighted the Everbridge emergency notification system, which the county provides to all 21 municipalities at no cost. Wagner noted successful negotiations that maintained the contract's pricing for a decade, saving municipalities significant expenses.
Commissioner Baker raised a question regarding the rescinding of a contract with CGI Tech. Wagner explained that the decision was made in light of federal budget cuts and the need for cost-saving measures, indicating that the county could manage the IT services in-house, saving over $500,000 over two years.
Next, Director Palahki from the Department of Engineering, Public Works, and Facilities Management presented ten resolutions. Commissioner Mirabella expressed support for a stream stabilization project in the city of Atomic, emphasizing the importance of federal support for the initiative.
