Board of Ada County Commissioners – Open Business Meeting – November 10, 2026

The Ada County Board of Commissioners’ open business meeting on November 10, 2026, included several procurement- and budget-related actions. The board approved Resolution 3251 for a sole-source purchase of 20 additional litter-control fences from Meta Technologies for the Ada County landfill; staff said earlier fences had been bid in 2024. Commissioners also heard a public hearing on Resolution 3249, a budget adjustment carrying forward remaining opioid-settlement funds for projects awarded in FY2026, including one-time and two-year personnel funding; the transcript does not clearly capture the final action or any amount. The board approved the claims journal dated November 6 and 12 agreements. Among the agreements discussed were forensic pathology services for qualifying Canyon County cases and a federal Homeland Security grant supporting emergency management. Commissioners clarified that an agreement for Ada County to participate in the federal review of a proposed data center on BLM land was not project approval. No contract amounts were stated. The elections official also reported that the county is replacing its election equipment, though no related procurement action was taken at this meeting.

The board passed Ordinance 1030, prohibiting cryptocurrency ATMs in unincorporated Ada County, and certified the results of the November 3 general election. It also proclaimed National Adoption Day, approved regional transportation advisory committee reappointments, liquor-related permits and licenses, a final plat, facility agreements, and indigent-services recommendations. The separate EMS District portion included approval of its claims journal and minutes; no EMS procurement decision was identified.
