Gavin Green, Delaware County Coroner, reported to the council that his office handled 713 coroner calls in 2025, averaging about 59 calls per month or roughly two calls per day. He told the council that while that daily average may seem modest, individual cases can tie up staff for many hours; a recent homicide investigation required more than 20 staff-hours for the coroner's office alone.

Green said referrals from the hospital have improved but that some cases still "slip through," and he said the office continues to track workload and staffing needs. The coroner's update was informational; no formal requests for new positions or budget changes were recorded in the transcript.

Council members offered thanks and had no further questions on the coroner report during the meeting.

Green's figures were presented as annual totals; the transcript does not include additional breakdowns by cause, jurisdiction or staffing capacity.
