# Knox County, Ohio Board of Commissioners November 10th, 2026 Regular Session

At the Knox County Board of Commissioners’ regular session on November 10, 2026, the county CIO reported on IT operations and projects. Work included preparing internet service for the water and wastewater billing office’s move, nearing deployment of a new county website through CivicPlus, and evaluating a fully managed, vendor-supplied cloud product. The IT team also supported sheriff’s office flooring renovations and expanded archival storage for the public defender. No IT contract award or spending amount was stated. Commissioners approved an update to the state maximum fee schedule for appointed counsel in capital cases, increasing the rate from $140 to $165 per hour.

Commissioners received project updates: the transit and operations center remained on track for completion by year-end, subject to resolution of a fire-alarm panel issue; the water/wastewater project was nearing asphalt work; and the courthouse elevator replacement was being planned for 2027, with plans expected to go through state approval and bidding. The former water/wastewater office is proposed for conversion into a county morgue, with plans submitted to the state for approval. The transcript also mentions patrol cruisers received this year and a resolution to authorize the sheriff as their signing agent, but does not capture a vote on that resolution. No contract values or vendor selections for these capital projects were stated.
