The Carroll County Board of Commissioners held a special session on November 13, 2026, to discuss the county’s IT services agreement with Rutz Consulting Group (RCG). The county was at the end of year two of a three-year agreement, and the consulting services were due to expire the following day. Commissioners reviewed two options: continue year-three services for $13,000 plus $8,430 in Microsoft 365 and related license fees, totaling $21,430; or pay $13,000 for a lump-sum contract closeout, excluding licenses that the county might need to purchase separately after December 31.

The commissioners voted in favor of the $13,000 lump-sum closeout option. A draft closeout agreement prepared by the county prosecutor will be sent to RCG for review with its legal counsel before execution. No other procurement actions were identified.
