# Committee Meeting | Ways & Means - Nov 10, 2026

The Wayne County Commission Committee on Ways and Means discussed budget initiatives and several budget adjustments. The budget director described plans to track initiative leads by department and improve cost and activity reporting. Commissioners requested follow-up on township paving projects, county-road work, and nonprofit projects funded through a roughly $3 million allocation; some nonprofit projects remain delayed by paperwork, and staff will seek updated contract and project status from Economic Development. The first phase of the township paving program was reported complete, with additional funds now being spent, but a project breakdown was not available at the meeting.

The committee considered budget adjustments including $55,000 in additional grant revenue for Third Circuit Court customer-service programming, funding for an integrated crisis program from Well Wayne alongside opioid funds, and a transfer from regular salaries to temporary staffing for election-related work. Another adjustment concerned an aging Chevy Tahoe that had not been included in the capital budget; the discussion prompted a request to share the county’s asset-disposal and reassignment policies. The committee approved budget adjustment 2027350008, but no amount or vendor was stated. No contract award or vendor selection was identified. The treasurer’s fourth-quarter report cited $71.1 million in total investment interest for FY 2025–26. The October 20 meeting minutes were approved; the transcript does not clearly capture votes on all other budget-adjustment items.
