August 19th 2026 Ways and Means and HR Meeting

The August 19, 2026 meeting of the Clinton County Ways and Means and Human Resources Committees included several procurement and budget-related discussions. Key items included approval of a $3,000 in-kind match agreement with the US Fish and Wildlife Service for grassland prairie development at Clinton Trails County Park, and authorization of a line item transfer within an opioid settlement grant to cover higher-than-anticipated insurance costs for Recovery Works. The board also approved retaining Ingham County as fiduciary for emergency management and homeland security grant funds. Additionally, the county administrator reported on efforts to address a vacancy in the county building official position by contracting inspection services with Wood Township through early 2027. Other topics included updates on zoning petitions, grant award processes, and community initiatives, but no new contract awards or RFPs were announced. Motions related to budget reallocations and grant management were passed unanimously.
