Trumbull County Commissioners-Regular Meeting 10/7/2026

The Trumbull County Commissioners’ regular meeting on October 7, 2026 included several procurement and infrastructure actions. The board approved the ODOT-prepared final resolution and contract for resurfacing Salt Springs Road, authorized advertising for bids for a 534-foot sanitary sewer extension serving the Highway Outpost in Hubbard Township, and awarded Z-Tech Builders/Excavators Inc. the Stillwagon Road Water Improvements contract (County Project No. 1-W-19) for $1,117,381. It also awarded Claunch and Sons Excavating LLC a $83,200 contract for sanitary lateral connections for seven qualified ARPA households in Newton Township. The board approved another lowest responsive, responsible bid award for $96,000, but the project and vendor are missing from the transcript; a further item referring to OWDA funding is also incomplete. These actions passed by unanimous roll-call votes where audible.

The commissioners also approved purchasing two 2026 Ford Police Interceptors from Liberty Ford for $100,182 through state purchasing, noting the purchase would cover two quarters of vehicle replacements. Bills and additional appropriations were approved, though amounts were not stated. Other approvals included special hauling or fleet permits and distribution of senior-service levy funds to agencies for November 2026–October 2028. The board established a county violent-crime-reduction task-force fund and approved the appointment of a Job and Family Services director at an annual salary of $99,450; no related vendor procurement was identified.
