The Gila County Board of Supervisors meeting on September 22, 2026, included multiple procurement and budget-related discussions. The board approved several economic development agreements, including $10,000 grants to the Rim Country Regional Chamber of Commerce and the Globe Miami Chamber of Commerce to support local business operations and tourism promotion. They also approved contract amendments for services such as assessment mailing with Master's Touch LLC, software as a service agreement with Destiny Software for agenda management, and network support with a managed service provider. A contract for electrical modernization of the Pleasant Valley Veterans Retreat historic cabin was discussed but ultimately not awarded due to concerns over cost and project fit. The board authorized funding for transit services, approved grant applications for library aid and fire district equipment, and supported cleanup projects with the San Carlos Apache tribe. Significant discussion focused on landfill expansion funding, with presentations on costs, bond financing, and property acquisition options. The board also reviewed the Michaelelsson building renovation project, noting increased cost estimates and the need for additional funding sources. Policy changes such as adopting a relocation assistance merit rule and supporting Senate Bill 1067 for property cleanup assessments were approved. Motions passed unanimously or by majority vote on these procurement and budget items, reflecting ongoing efforts to support economic development, infrastructure, and community services in Gila County.
