The Carroll County Board of Supervisors meeting on September 29, 2025, covered several key topics, including updates on local health services, fiscal reports, and community initiatives.

One significant discussion involved Sarah Fleece, a new healthcare provider at Highway 30 Health in Glidden, who has recently opened a direct care practice and is running for mayor of Glidden. Her dual role as a healthcare provider and a political candidate highlights the intersection of community health and local governance.

The board reviewed the end-of-fiscal-year financial statements for 2024-2025, noting a tax asking of $75,000, with actual revenue exceeding expectations by over $56,000. This surplus was attributed to increased funding from various grants, including a notable rise in the immunization grant due to an active tuberculosis case that required extensive staff resources. The board acknowledged that such funding is not typical and depends on specific health situations.

In addition, the meeting addressed updates on local public health services, with reports indicating that the home care program is fully staffed and operational. The board also discussed manure management updates and the approval of a Class C retail alcohol license for Start Line Lines, which passed unanimously.

Supervisors shared their recent activities, including participation in city-county roundtables and discussions on drainage issues and road conditions. The meeting concluded with plans for upcoming events, including a cancer center meeting and a potential luncheon with the lieutenant governor.

Overall, the meeting underscored the board's commitment to community health, fiscal responsibility, and collaboration among local entities, setting the stage for future initiatives and discussions.
