# October 13, 2026 Board of Supervisors Regular Meeting

At the October 13, 2026 regular meeting of the Story County Board of Supervisors, staff presented the FY27 first-quarter report. For ARPA funds, staff said obligated costs must be spent on services rendered by December 31, rather than all funds necessarily being returned by that date. Approximately $41,000 may remain unspent, though some could cover closeout administration; the county has budgeted $35,000 for that work, and the federal repayment deadline remains unclear. The board discussed the report but took no procurement or spending vote on ARPA funds.

The board discussed next steps for amending the county’s urban renewal plan to support the LMI housing program. Applications from Roland and Story City were added for consideration alongside earlier applications; staff reported about $1.5 million in proposed project and administrative/legal costs against potential funding of $1.95 million, including a prior $975,000 certification and a similar request expected before December 1. Staff received direction to proceed with consultation notices for an October 27 meeting and continue reviewing the applications; no project awards were approved. Supervisors also expressed support for expanding manufactured-home programs, including repairs. The consent agenda was approved, with no specific purchasing items identified in the transcript.
