BOCC Meeting June 23th, 2026

The Putnam County Board of County Commissioners held a meeting on June 23, 2026, addressing several planning and development issues, including a zoning map amendment request to rezone 22.5 acres from Planned Unit Development to Residential Estate for single-family residential use. The board unanimously recommended approval of the rezoning request. Additionally, the board approved a plat vacation for a portion of the St. Johns Manor Acres subdivision to preserve environmentally sensitive lands. A significant procurement-related discussion focused on approving a health program providing a $200 credit for GLP-1 medication to county employees, with concerns raised about the program's open-ended financial impact, lack of FDA approval, and equitable access. The board ultimately approved the program with a one-year trial period and a $175,000 spending cap. Another procurement matter involved approving a $50,000 one-time capital improvement payment for flooring renovation at a leased facility used for recreational purposes. The meeting also included updates on animal services improvements, upcoming equipment auctions, and discussions about potential ordinances related to boating safety and data center regulations. No new contracts or vendor selections were announced, but the health program approval and capital improvement funding represent key procurement decisions.
