Board approves campground host contract after clarifying utilities clause

Ogemaw County Board of Commissioners · August 20, 2026

Summary

Commissioners approved a contract to hire campground hosts (contractors) for a $500 monthly stipend but asked staff to correct a clause about utility payments before final signature; the contract includes a 30‑day termination provision.

The board approved a resolution to engage campground hosts to support county campground maintenance and operations. Under the contract the hosts would be contractors, not county employees, would live in their own trailer and receive a $500 monthly stipend. Commissioners said the county will have the contractual right to terminate the arrangement on 30 days’ notice.

Members flagged an inconsistency in paragraph D over who pays utilities. Francine and other staff confirmed the language should make the county responsible for utilities and the board asked staff to correct the clause and bring back a corrected final for signature or to make the change administratively before the host signs. "It should be the county," a commissioner said while reviewing the contract language. The motion to adopt the resolution carried on roll call.
