Flagler County LIVE Stream

The Flagler County Board of County Commissioners’ regular meeting on October 5, 2026, addressed several contracting and spending matters. For the David Seigel Adult Daycare Center, commissioners rejected Therapeutic Assisted Living’s proposal after the bidder sought to change its pricing after evaluation, raising concerns about bid integrity. The board then authorized staff to assess and negotiate with the second-ranked proposer and return with a recommendation; the licensing transition must be completed before December 31. Commissioners unanimously approved an amended cold-weather shelter interlocal agreement with Flagler Beach, Palm Coast, and Bunnell. The amendment removes the annual cap on activation nights and sets each jurisdiction’s share at 25%; staff estimated the county’s maximum exposure at $9,000, up from $7,000. A proposed increase from $1,000 to $1,500 per shelter night was discussed, while an Expo Hall use agreement was to be developed and brought back at the next meeting; the transcript does not record a final vote on that agreement.

The consent agenda was approved as amended, including an increase in a local match from $10,780 to $21,279.28, incorporating a scaffolding adjustment, and a correction to the amount for miscellaneous services in item 7H. The county administrator reported that 11 firms had been contacted for the administrator search, with nine responses received; the estimated search cost was $20,000–$50,000, and staff planned further review of proposals from two firms. No procurement decision was recorded on the search at this meeting.
