The Rockingham County Board of Commissioners held a meeting on June 11, 2026, where they approved surplus equipment disposal and an accounts payable list totaling approximately $2.76 million, including payments for state bills, IT capital leases, and nursing services. The board discussed and approved a lease proposal for IT equipment at a favorable interest rate and authorized cash-out of accrued earned time for employees to aid budgeting. They also amended the fiscal year 2027 per diem wage schedule and approved a contract for adult medical day services with Easter Seals at $80 per day for three days a week, noting budget considerations. Additionally, the board reviewed plans to refurbish space for adult diversion services, including minor renovations and flooring updates, with budgeted funds allocated. A purchase to replace a failed radio unit at the Sheriff's Department was approved, exceeding the $10,000 threshold but within budget. Discussions included signage improvements for parking, employee access to outdoor spaces, and banking issues related to Registry of Deeds accounts. The meeting concluded with motions to enter non-public sessions and seal those minutes indefinitely due to personnel matters.
