# BOC meeting - October 6, 2026

At the October 6, 2026 Coos County Board of Commissioners meeting, commissioners approved a $230,200 contract with Knife River Materials for the Barview approaches paving project; the county received one bid. They also approved BLM contract modification P0006, increasing the five-year contract’s net amount by $210,432, and authorized the chair to sign. Commissioners voted to declare three high-mileage county vehicles surplus and authorize their auction, while staff agreed to check whether one might be suitable for the Empire Neighborhood Watch before posting them for sale. An order authorizing sale of a tax-foreclosed property at 190 North Bernon Street in Coquille was presented with an offer of $170,000; the transcript does not clearly capture a separate vote on that item.

The board approved a $3,000 Coastal Caucus donation from the economic development fund, noting it would not affect the general fund. Other approved personnel actions included revised job descriptions and pay-grade changes, promotions, and filling an existing corrections secretary vacancy without adding an FTE. Public comments and commissioner reports addressed state regulation and local business conditions, county revenue, behavioral health, and a past natural-gas pipeline transfer; no new procurement action was identified in those discussions.
