Committee of the Whole Meeting 2026 06 22

The Tuscola County Committee of the Whole meeting on June 22, 2026, included discussions primarily focused on procurement and budget matters related to community corrections and county equipment. The board reviewed a grant request for community corrections funding, with an anticipated increase from $14.6 million to approximately $15.6 million, pending the governor's budget approval. The grant supports various substance abuse programs across four counties, with an emphasis on maintaining prison commitment rates below state averages. The board agreed to consider a resolution supporting the grant application at a future meeting. Additionally, the county requested approval to purchase a new off-road utility vehicle to replace an aging 2004 model, with bids received and a preferred vendor selected at $13,500. The meeting also addressed a revised medical examiner agreement with minor contractual changes, scheduled for a motion at the next meeting. Other topics included website content updates and park improvements, but no further procurement actions were taken.
