The Hancock County Commissioners voted on Feb. 26 to authorize a contract with the Hancock County Combined General Health District, doing business as Hancock Public Health, to perform enforcement duties for the Hancock County Solid Waste Management District for calendar year 2026.
Cindy Land told the board the Environmental Protection Agency requires this enforcement work; the contract amount recorded in the minutes is $30,000. The resolution cites Ohio Revised Code Sections 3734.01 through 3734.13 and authorizes Hancock Public Health to enforce the cited sections, applicable rules, and permit/license terms for the district. The motion to approve was made by Commissioner William Bateson, seconded by Commissioner Timothy Bechtol, and passed 3-0.
The minutes do not include a detailed scope-of-work or a breakdown of how the $30,000 will be spent; contract documents should contain the enforcement scope, deliverables and reporting requirements.
