The Barry County Michigan Board of Commissioners held a meeting on May 26, 2026, which included various updates and presentations but did not feature direct procurement or contracting decisions. Key topics discussed included a promotion within the Barry County Sheriff's Office, concerns about pending state legislation (HB 5532) that could preempt local zoning authority and impact land use control, and an extensive economic development report. The economic development update highlighted ongoing broadband expansion projects funded through the BEAD program, child care facility expansions, housing development progress with over 1,000 units planned, and workforce development initiatives. While these discussions involved planning and funding strategies, no specific contract awards, RFPs, or vendor selections were reported during the meeting.
