The Medina County Board of Commissioners approved a set of routine resolutions during its meeting, moving forward on road work, equipment disposal, contract amendments, personnel changes and several finance measures.
County Engineer Dan Becker presented two resolutions: a determination of necessity to close Granger Road for curb and roadside maintenance and disposal of excess county equipment. Both measures were moved, seconded and approved by roll call.
Sanitary Engineer Jeremy Sinko asked the board to amend a professional design services agreement with HDR for the Westfield Water Treatment Plant project; the amendment was approved.
Human Resources representative Nicole Lee presented personnel actions that included two hires (one in sanitary, one in maintenance), a rate increase for MSAS, a leave of absence, one retirement in maintenance and two resignations at JFS. Lee also presented a three‑year corrections officers contract between the Medina County Sheriff and the Ohio Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association covering Jan. 1, 2026 through Dec. 31, 2028; the board approved both items.
Finance Director Brett Thomas summarized eight finance resolutions bundled as a single package. Among them, the board approved expenditure adjustments to move grant administrative costs out of the general fund, a sales tax distribution to all local school districts totaling $5,268,585.84 for the first quarter, authorization to purchase 6,900 gallons of unleaded gasoline (low bid from Ports Petroleum at $2.599 per gallon), inventory transfers and lists of excess property and auction items, travel expenses for county engineers and other officials, and weekly bills in the amount of $1,336,996.80. Thomas described the items as routine and the commissioners approved the package by roll call.
The board also adopted a proclamation recognizing April 2026 as National County Government Month, commending county services and the county workforce.
