# Hamilton County Commissioners Regular Meeting 10/22/26

The Hamilton County, Ohio, Board of County Commissioners’ regular meeting on October 22, 2026, included several approved spending and procurement items. Commissioners unanimously approved a $147,688.63 ARPA reallocation, split evenly between Freestore Foodbank food assistance and Council on Aging senior utility assistance. They also approved an intergovernmental agreement to rent a rubber-tire loader for the 2026–27 snow and ice season for $4,924, plus county-engineer projects funded through permissive auto funds: Anderson Township curb and sidewalk work ($87,300), road improvements in another township ($161,640; township name unclear in the transcript), and Plainfield Road crown improvements in Columbia Township ($13,400). The consent agenda, approved unanimously, included award of ITB049-26 to Greybach for elevator work at the Parkhouse garage, a garage-access software upgrade, and a $100,000 single-source agreement with Foundation of Love for Youth for group-home services.

The consent agenda also included acceptance of a previously discussed $1.5 million Ohio state capital grant for Hillcrest, with plans to renovate a cottage, purchase kitchen equipment, and improve the gym. Commissioners discussed a $1.6 million general-fund supplemental appropriation for Common Pleas Court personnel, along with other budget adjustments, noting that further requests may arise and that the county faces a tight 2027 budget cycle. In response to concerns about frequently blank garage information screens, staff agreed to report on the vendor, warranty, and possible remedies. Other discussion covered community events, voting, and health initiatives; no additional procurement actions were identified.
