The Allegan County Board of Commissioners held their annual evening meeting on April 23, 2026. Key procurement-related discussions included the approval of a resolution to procure a new enterprise resource planning (ERP) software solution from Tyler Technologies, with a base implementation cost of approximately $700,000 and annual support fees around $150,000. The board discussed the project timeline, vendor selection rationale, and contract terms before unanimously approving the procurement to replace the county's aging financial and human resources system. Additionally, the board received a detailed report from the Drain Commissioner on ongoing infrastructure maintenance, funding challenges for major drain projects, and regulatory compliance related to stormwater management. The meeting also covered budgetary matters such as the approval of the 2026 equalized property values, which impact tax revenue calculations. Future agenda items include capital project reports and health department updates. No other contract awards or RFPs were presented during this session.
