The County Commissioners meeting on October 29, 2026, approved the consent agenda and appointed Jacob (Jake) Stoner, the assistant director of emergency services, as the county’s emergency management coordinator. The appointment passed by motion; commissioners praised Stoner’s emergency-services experience and training. The consent agenda also passed, but its contents were not specified in the transcript. No contracts, bids, vendor selections, or other procurement actions were identified.

The public defender presented the Anchor Program, a voluntary pre-sentencing support program operated jointly with the county jail and courts to connect indigent participants with services such as housing, health care, employment assistance, and transportation. It began accepting referrals around March 1 and had 18 participants at the time of the meeting. The program’s case manager is funded through indigent defense grant money. No new funding allocation or spending decision was discussed.
