Board of Commissioners Meeting 06/17/2026

The Rockingham County Board of Commissioners held a meeting on June 17, 2026, where several procurement and budget-related decisions were made. The board awarded the Department of Corrections roofing project to Weather Shield Roofing and approved a waste disposal contract with J.M. Disposal Corp. They discussed and approved payroll expenses and surplus disposal of office chairs. A significant portion of the meeting focused on policy regarding food and drink use in the county auditorium, ultimately deciding to remove the moratorium on food and drink with considerations for cleaning and security deposits. The board also addressed budget concerns related to adult medical daycare transportation funding, anticipating a shortfall and planning to notify providers accordingly. Additionally, they approved the use of $6,374.79 from opioid abatement funds to purchase 21 televisions for community corrections and authorized a grant application for up to $10,000 for conservation license plate funding. A renewal agreement for Donna Cross Reiki Services was initially tabled but later approved for up to $1,800 per month. Updates on facility improvements, including jail renovations and community corrections building progress, were provided. The meeting concluded with motions to enter non-public session and adjournment.
