Greene County Public Health gives overview to Bellbrook council, mentions levy on fall ballot
Summary
Noah Stubbe, deputy health commissioner for Greene County Public Health, briefed the council on recent department activities — accreditation, disaster response, a large guard care event that delivered about $600,000 in services — and mentioned the department’s levy will appear on the fall ballot.
Noah Stubbe, deputy health commissioner for Greene County Public Health, described recent activities and outreach by the county health department during Bellbrook’s council meeting.
Stubbe said the department became nationally accredited in February 2018 and has since responded to large events including tornado outbreaks in 2019 and the COVID‑19 pandemic. He highlighted a recent “guard care” event, organized with the Ohio Department of Health and other partners, that provided more than $600,000 worth of medical services and served more than 1,000 people.
Stubbe said the department provided more than 30,000 counts of service across Greene County last year and that the department will be on the ballot this fall for a levy. He also noted routine public‑health activity the public might see, including mosquito spraying for the season and restaurant inspections.
In response to a council question about current infectious‑disease issues, Stubbe mentioned a measles outbreak affecting people who had not been vaccinated but said there have been no documented cases among vaccinated people and no local outbreak in Greene County. He encouraged residents to use county resources and said the department appreciates community support.
Council thanked Stubbe for the update and invited the health department to return periodically.
