Warren County Fiscal Court approves ordinance, contracts and emergency repair; several procurement votes unanimous

Warren County Fiscal Court on Thursday approved the second and final reading of Ordinance 25-12 WC to designate three roads in the South Haven subdivision as county roads, and approved a series of contracts, purchase orders and budget actions, all during a regularly scheduled meeting presided over by Esquire Tom Lawrence in Judge Foreman’s absence.

The court adopted Ordinance 25-12 WC to establish Seth South Hall Boulevard, Haven Ridge Way and Brimstone Way in the South Haven Subdivision as county roads and to authorize maintenance and set speed limits on those roads. The court also approved a single-source determination of $410,000 to Motorola for setup and relocation of the sheriff’s dispatch center to Sugar Maple Square, an emergency repair increase of $13,500 (for a total of $37,425) to Diesel Works LLC for work on Engine 24, and multiple other purchase determinations and contract renewals.

Why it matters: the ordinance transfers local road maintenance responsibility to Warren County Public Works, and the Motorola and emergency repair approvals allocate substantial county funds and set up near-term work affecting the sheriff’s operations and fire apparatus availability.
