October 22, 2026 BOC - Full Board

The Macomb County Board of Commissioners’ full board meeting on October 22, 2026, approved several infrastructure and contract-related items. The board considered a Department of Roads salt barn change order, capital-improvement budget amendments for Clemens Center parking lot paving ($434,862, as rendered in the transcript) and 42nd District Court exterior façade renovations ($1.3 million), and a Michigan Department of Transportation contract for intersection improvements at 26 Mile Road and Hayes, including signal mast arm installation. The MDOT project was listed at $1,770,200 total, with a county share of $1,020,200. The board also approved a $100,000 budget amendment associated with the Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity and an extension of Shelby Township’s indigent defense agreement. Recorded votes on several committee recommendations were 12–0; no vendor name or salt barn change-order amount could be reliably determined from the transcript.

The board approved the annual tax apportionment report covering 76 taxing authorities and received updates on other county matters. Public commenters urged the county to address proposed data center development and raised concerns about animal welfare oversight; no related county action or procurement decision was recorded. The meeting also included a charitable-recipient recognition and board appointments. No procurement policy changes were identified.
