Commissioner's Meeting 09.28.2026

The Warrick County Commissioners meeting on September 28, 2026, included several procurement and spending actions. Commissioners approved a six-year Eagle View agreement for $575,955, payable in six annual installments of $95,992.50; a Boycat annual service contract for Highway Department heavy equipment; and a $4,800 annual recalibration service for courthouse radon monitors. They also approved two agreements for the Edgeworth Road widening project, for $94,052.04 and $34,425.40, and ratified INDOT agreements related to county pavement markings. A trail design in the Lincoln Avenue right-of-way was approved. For the courthouse construction project, officials reported that the current $46 million Garmong contract is expected to be reduced to about $43 million at closeout, with the final invoice and change-order documentation to follow; the meeting transcript does not clearly establish a final approval of that adjustment. Commissioners approved a $5,758.26 legal-services claim and requested follow-up on whether a public defender contract should be formalized. They also considered two opioid-grant applications of $25,000 each for youth-serving organizations; the transcript does not clearly capture a vote on those applications.

Commissioners approved a new animal-control fee schedule, including adoption fees of $185 for dogs and $135 for cats, and adopted Ordinance 2026-25 establishing the fees. The meeting also included quarterly weights-and-measures results and a veterans-service-office compliance report; no related procurement actions were identified. The Area Planning Commission had no business before the commissioners, and public comment included discussion of transparency around the county’s data-center planning process.
