MSU Extension briefs Barry County on 4‑H activity; county receives ARP project update

Barry County Board of Commissioners · March 1, 2026

Summary

MSU Extension District 8 presented a 4‑H annual report and an update on the district director search while County Administrator Eric Zuzga provided a status report on ARP‑funded projects and related community investments.

Presenters from MSU Extension provided the board with the scheduled annual 4‑H update and an overview of local Extension activity. William V. Hendrian, listed as District 8 Director for MSU Extension, appeared on the agenda; 4‑H staff identified on the agenda included Kelly Keurin (4‑H Program Supervisor), Lily Arriaga (4‑H Program Coordinator) and Stephanie Harvey (part‑time 4‑H support). The minutes note an update on the search for a new district director.

County Administrator Eric Zuzga delivered an "ARP Act Project Update" on American Rescue Plan funds the county has allocated. Commissioner Catherine Getty said she was pleased with how ARP funds have been spent and highlighted the role of ARP funding in the Community Food Center project.

The presentations reinforce ongoing county partnerships with Michigan State University Extension and the local use of federal ARP funds for community programs. The board did not take formal action on program items at this meeting; staff follow‑up on the district director search and ARP reporting will continue.
