The Nash County Board of Commissioners held a special called meeting on June 29, 2026, primarily to address budget amendments related to community development and county technology upgrades. The board approved an amended grant project ordinance increasing funding by approximately $241,687 for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), with additional amendments totaling $657,000 attributed to the county's strong grant administration. Discussions included reallocating funds originally budgeted for EMS equipment to other eligible expenses and confirming that some capital improvement projects, such as new EMS stretchers, had not yet been budgeted. Another budget amendment approved allocated general fund balance resources to update the county's phone system and reallocated unspent Juvenile Crime Prevention Council (JCPC) funds to support the Boys and Girls Club through the Impact Plus program. The board also agreed to tentatively add a third meeting in June 2027 to accommodate potential end-of-fiscal-year business. No new contracts or vendor selections were reported, but the meeting highlighted effective grant management and prudent budget adjustments to support county operations.
