Commissioners approve routine county resolutions, create drug and mental-health court payroll fund
Summary
The Medina County commissioners approved a package of routine resolutions including fund transfers, personnel actions and finance items; they created a payroll subsidy fund for adult probation drug and mental-health dockets funded in part by a $100,000 grant from the Medina County Mental Health Board and approved weekly bills totaling $919,896.66.
The Medina County Board of Commissioners approved multiple routine resolutions during the meeting, ranging from fund transfers and personnel actions to specific finance items and contract authorizations.
Key approvals included: - A cooperative agreement with the Ohio Water Development Authority related to the Hinkley Wastewater Treatment Plant electrical-upgrade project and authorization to obtain easements along South Court Street. - Acceptance and award of a consulting-services proposal (RFQ) to review and update the county subdivision regulations (final contract amount to be negotiated and returned for approval). - Two transfers within Job & Family Services funds to cover PCSA administration and child-support administration expenditures. - A personnel-resolution package listing new hires, promotions, rate increases, returns from leave and a resignation across several county departments. - Finance items including revenue adjustments for surplus property sales; cash transfers (including a prior-transfer correction); creation of an adult probation drug and mental-health court payroll subsidy fund (the Medina County Mental Health Board provided $100,000 toward this purpose); an agreement for a service coordinator with the Family First Council and the Board of Developmental Disabilities (not to exceed $87,511); and weekly bills in the amount of $919,896.66.
Public comment on the subdivision-regulations RFQ: Jeremy Craig, representing the Home Builders Association, asked that the commission ensure transparent review of final costs before a contract resulting from the RFQ is executed. County staff explained that RFQs focus on qualifications and that some respondents provide dollar amounts; the final negotiated contract will be returned for formal approval.
Votes: Roll calls recorded unanimous "yes" votes on the items taken during the meeting.
Next steps: For the RFQ and any negotiated contracts, staff said the final contract terms and cost will be presented to the commissioners for authorization before execution. Finance staff will manage the newly created funds and allocations as described in the approved resolutions.
Financial details and amounts recorded in the meeting records include the Mental Health Board contribution of $100,000 to the drug and mental-health court payroll subsidy fund, an agreement amount not-to-exceed $87,511 for the Family First Council service coordinator, and weekly bills totaling $919,896.66.
