# 11/10/2026 – Hendricks Co. Health Board Meeting

The Hendricks County Health Board met on November 10, 2026. The board accepted the prior meeting minutes and approved next year’s meeting dates. No contract awards, bids, or new purchasing decisions were identified. Members discussed Health First Indiana funding and community-partner awards, with an open house planned to explain how the funding is being used; the County Council Association is also expected to advocate for increased local public-health funding. The department plans to post an administrative assistant position for a January start after the County Council approves the salary ordinance. Staff expect to bring fee-related ordinance updates to the board, including food and mobile-permit fees.

The board discussed enforcement at a public school with a continuing hot-water violation while a replacement unit is being shipped. Members agreed the department should notify the school that civil penalties will be assessed, including prior penalties, if the issue is not resolved by December 1; no formal vote was recorded. Staff also reported proposed state septic-code changes that could require demolition permits and inspections for septic-system abandonment, along with training and local implementation work. The board reviewed an updated volunteer management plan, and staff provided public-health updates on measles, flu, vaccination outreach, and related programs. No procurement contract or specific spending allocation was approved at this meeting.
