Montgomery County Council — Joint Health & Human Services and Government Operations & Fiscal Policy Committees · October 31, 2025

Montgomery County Council joint session of the Health & Human Services and Government Operations committees discussed Bill 42-23, which would require menstrual products in public restrooms. Staff described substantial amendments narrowing the scope to county-owned facilities (libraries, recreation centers, regional service centers and certain DHHS service locations), estimated a one-time dispenser cost (~$43,493) and ongoing annual refill costs (~$214,003), and explained DGS would implement. The amendment was proposed but received no motion; the committees instead agreed to ask the county executive to fund a pilot or include it in the FY27 budget.
