# Hamilton County Commissioners Regular Meeting 10/1/26

Hamilton County Board of County Commissioners regular meeting, October 1, 2026. The board unanimously approved an additional $454,965 for design and right-of-way work on the Rapid Run and Foley Road pump station receiver manhole project. The stated reason was a change in the selected project alternative; the current estimated total project cost is approximately $13.5 million, with the additional funding to be shifted within the budget. The board also unanimously approved an annexation agreement related to a Harrison-area retail project, following an engineer’s report confirming the parcel description was accurate and noting cooperation between the city and township.

The consent agenda included a $563,981 General Fund budget adjustment, including costs for a Board of Elections sorting machine; $33,388 for law-enforcement mobile data computer hardware; a $100,000 amendment for Julia Page Center group-home services; and a $250,000 agreement for SNAP-eligible consumers’ truck-driver training. Commissioners discussed a $105,000 Ferguson Group agreement, with one commissioner objecting to approving it without direct discussion with the contractor and raising concerns about federal SNAP reductions, contract value, and reporting; another commissioner described prior engagement and updates from the group. The transcript ends before the consent agenda vote, so its final disposition is not shown. No other procurement vote is captured for these consent items.
