Board approves short-term office moves at Annex 1

Starke County Board of Commissioners · July 25, 2026

Summary

Starke County commissioners approved a plan to move the GM office upstairs and relocate the surveyor and EMS in Annex 1 after department heads agreed to the changes; logistical and security steps were discussed, including moving cabinets, cameras, and a safe.

The board considered a short-term reorganization of Annex 1 and approved a motion to move the GM office upstairs and relocate the surveyor and EMS offices downstairs. Chair introduced the agenda item and asked department heads present whether they would accept the change; those present agreed and the motion passed on voice vote.

Department heads and staff discussed logistics, storage, and security: where cabinets would be moved, how shared copiers would be used, and whether cameras and a safe would need to be relocated and mounted. One department head said staff could be ready within a week to secure their location: "I have to have my secured location in a week with a safe mounted to the floor," the speaker said. The board approved two-week timing for coordination and asked staff to work with facilities and the sheriff's office if assistance was needed.
