At its March 10 Committee of the Whole, the Bay County Board approved a batch of routine items — from service agreements and travel to vendor contracts and funding — and scheduled a public hearing to consider removing a library trustee under state statute.

The Bay County Board of Commissioners on March 10 approved a package of routine agenda items and received reports, including bonds, vendor agreements, service contracts and personnel actions, and set a public hearing on a removal resolution for a library trustee.

Key approvals included: adoption of the amended agenda; approval of minutes from Feb. 10; Bay County Capital Improvement Bonds Series 2026; a resolution supporting a Michigan House Bill related to Brownfield redevelopment; a contract to deploy assistive call‑taking software for 911 dispatch (2026–2031); a Motorola Solutions service agreement for 2026–27; travel requests for the Tyler Connect 2026 conference; a community corrections vendor agreement with Tri Cap Inc.; an amendment for forensic pathology services with Dr. Patrick Cho; an additional $110,000 in EGO funding for materials management planning; a 2026 softball field maintenance agreement with the Bay City Softball Association; issuance of an RFP for an onboarding software solution; approval of a full‑time community center coordinator position; revised personnel policy changes for 2026; finance items including receipt of a general fund equity analysis and approval of the audit F65 form; a program income funds transfer from housing rehabilitation loans; a Raymond Robinson change order; approval of general payables; and receipt of the Office of Assigned Counsel January 2026 report.

A commissioner supporting the Brownfield resolution cited recent local redevelopment projects, including work at a Tim Hortons site and the Bay Valley Resort TIF, as reasons to back the state legislation. The board voted on items by voice majority; no recorded roll‑call tallies are shown in the transcript for most items.

The board concluded with miscellaneous announcements about local capital projects and community events before adjourning.
