The Middlesex County Board of Supervisors convened a budget work session Feb. 5, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. in the Historic Courthouse in Saluda. Chairman Don R. Harris presided while supervisors and a lineup of county staff and outside agencies presented additional material to accompany previously submitted budget requests.
Presenters listed on the agenda included Melissa Welch for the Electoral Board & Registrar’s Office; Meredith Holt of Tidewater Soil & Water Conservation; Commonwealth Attorney Mike Hurd; Ted Costin for the Town of Urbanna; Stephanie Hudgins of Bay Aging/Bay Transit and Tinsley Goad for the Bay Aging Housing Choice Voucher Program; Frank Long from VCE Cooperative Extension; Carrie Dos Santos of Middlesex Public Library; Marilyn South of the Middlesex Museum; Amanda Campagnola and Ken Hickman for Middle Peninsula Northern Neck Behavioral Health; Jean Nelson for the Northern Neck Middlesex Free Health Clinic; Linda Hodges for a proposed GUEST Shelter; Trent Funkhouser for the Economic Development Authority; Sarah Rae of the YMCA; Rebecca Morgan of VDSS; and Sheriff David Bushey. The transcript records the presence and sequence of presenters but does not transcribe the content or dollar amounts of their submissions.
The board paused for a mid-morning break and a lunch recess while considering the array of departmental and partner requests. The session’s administrative record focuses on who presented and the procedural steps taken rather than on specific budget figures or program changes; where the transcript does not include figures, this article notes that amounts or detailed proposals were not specified in the recorded text.
The meeting later moved into a closed session for a personnel matter (see separate article). The public proceedings resumed afterward, and the session adjourned at 3:07 p.m.
