# Douglas County Board of Commissioners Business Meeting 09/30/26

The Douglas County Board of Commissioners’ business meeting on September 30, 2026, recognized National 4-H Week through a proclamation and remarks from county 4-H representatives, volunteers, and families. Speakers described 4-H’s role in youth development and the fairgrounds’ support for related events; no procurement or budget action was identified in that discussion.

A juvenile detention representative requested authorization to purchase a full-body scanner, citing safety needs, rising youth numbers, and more serious cases. The representative said a possible $47,000 reimbursement grant was being pursued and referenced approximately $95,000 in unexpected Department of Corrections fines; the scanner’s purchase price was not stated. A motion and second were made to approve an order authorizing the purchase, but the transcript does not capture a vote or final outcome.
