The Boone County Board of Supervisors met at the Boone County Courthouse on May 13, 2026. Chairman Erich D. Kretzinger called the meeting to order at 9:00 a.m. and the board approved the agenda as posted after a motion by Supervisor Shawn Bryant, seconded by Supervisor Scott Longhorn.

The board also accepted the resignation of Nathan Ross, assistant county engineer, effective May 22, 2026.
