At a regular meeting the Medina County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved multiple routine resolutions covering a Hinkley Township replat, four sanitary-engineering actions at the Liverpool wastewater plant, personnel changes, budget transfers and department leases; weekly bills of $1,209,804 were approved.

The Medina County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved a package of routine resolutions at its meeting, authorizing land-record actions, several sanitary-engineering procurement steps, personnel changes, budget transfers and departmental leases.

County Engineer Dan Becker asked the board to approve the Prairie Vista replat (Prairie Vista replant number 1) in Hinkley Township. The board approved the replat after a motion and second; roll-call votes recorded Commissioners Hambley, Harrison and Sweatick as voting yes. Sanitary Engineer Jeremy Cinco then presented four measures related to the Liverpool Wastewater Treatment Plant: (1) soliciting statements of qualifications for bio and process modeling; (2) replacing the Liverpool plant administration building roof through competitive bidding; (3) upgrading existing lighting at the plant through competitive bidding; and (4) renewing an agreement with Anser Advisory for construction supervision, inspection and testing services for 2026. "I have 4 resolutions for consideration today," Jeremy Cinco said. All four were approved by the board by roll call.

Human Resources Director Holly Meron presented a personnel changes resolution that listed two new hires, promotions, rate increases, leaves of absence, a probationary removal and one resignation in senior and adult services; that resolution was approved unanimously.

Finance Director Brett Thomas presented four financial actions: temporary appropriation amendments; a transfer totaling $80,814.18 to the vehicle maintenance revenue line; several expense items for county officials (including sheriff's office training); and the weekly bills totaling $1,209,804. "Our second resolution is authorizing transfer from various funds for the vehicle maintenance revenue line item. This is in the amount of $80,814.18," Thomas stated. The board approved all four finance resolutions by roll call.

County administration brought five additional resolutions forward: declaring certain motor vehicles excess property for auction; authorizing salvage and disposal of two sheriff's vehicles; approving a ComDoc lease for print and copy machines to be used across county departments; approving a lease extension for the Medina Auto Title branch (Clerk of Courts — Medina location); and authorizing issuance of a request for proposals with the Medina County dog shelter for spay/neuter and vaccination services. Commissioners approved those measures unanimously. One commissioner praised the dog-shelter advisory committee's involvement in developing the RFP.

The meeting record shows repeated roll calls following motions; when names were recorded the votes were 'Hambley', 'Harrison' and 'Sweatick' voting yes on the listed items. No dissenting votes were recorded in the transcript.
