Morrow County commissioners approve minutes, contracts and joint solid‑waste plan update
Summary
At a brief Jan. 8 session the Morrow County Board of Commissioners approved routine minutes, several payments and contracts, and a resolution to accept an annual update to the Delaware‑Knox‑Marion‑Morrow Joint Solid Waste Management District plan.
The Morrow County Board of Commissioners on Jan. 8, 2025, approved the minutes from a prior meeting, authorized several county payments and contracts, and adopted a resolution to accept the annual update to the Delaware‑Knox‑Marion‑Morrow Joint Solid Waste Management District solid waste management plan.
The actions were taken during a short session after the invocation and pledge of allegiance. The board approved the minutes of the regular special meeting of Jan. 8, 2025, and then approved a series of payments and contract items listed on the agenda. The record shows roll‑call affirmative votes for the motions recorded at the meeting.
Among items approved were payments described on the record as coming from Chesterfield, Catterman and Pimelco; an AMA invoice in Chester Township; and two payments from Ohio Health described as a lease enforcement reserve payment and a 2025 hospital lease payment. The board also moved to approve a purchase‑of‑service agreement between the County Court of Common Pleas and Cornell Abraxas Group LLC and approved a “triple supplemental memorandum of understanding” described on the record as between the county juvenile court and a similarly named juvenile court (Richmond County, Ohio was mentioned in the transcript).
The board recorded a resolution to approve an annual update to the Delaware‑Knox‑Marion‑Morrow Joint Solid Waste Management District solid waste management plan; the agenda item as read refers to approval and signature by the chairman. The transcript does not include a resolution number or ordinance number for that item.
