David Provoca, Livingston County’s county administrator, gave the board a status update on county operations and projects, saying the county appears "on pace to... beat our projections for 2024" and reporting progress on social services and infrastructure efforts.

Provoca said staff and the treasurer’s office are monitoring some collections but that "for 2024, we appear to be set up for a for a real strong finish." He also reported that Department of Social Services staff have been finalizing plans for a warming center at Murray Hill, with support from central services and IT to get necessary facility infrastructure in place.

Provoca confirmed that the Livingston County Soil and Water Conservation District has relocated to Murray Hill (building 1) and that wayfinding signage has been installed to help the public find the office. On broadband, he said the county is beginning work on the "Light Up Livingston" municipal infrastructure program and is "working through some agreements with the many parties that are involved," and that initial installations tied to USDA Reconnect funding should follow those agreements.

Chairman Lefebvre also publicly thanked Jason Wolfinger and county highway crews for responding to an ice jam and clearing debris after Christmas, saying their actions "avoided a big, big mess." Provoca closed by saying several of the county’s large projects for 2025 are progressing and invited questions; none were raised in substantive detail following his report.

The update provides administrative context for several items later approved on the board’s consent agenda, including contracts and the broadband capital project account.
