The agenda for the legislative session includes the election of officers and board reorganization. Key items for consideration involve approving claims for the period of December 16, 2025, to January 6, 2026, and a legal settlement regarding M Perkins V Allen County Jail et al. The board will also consider several agreements, including those with ForeSight Consulting LLC for section corner perpetuation services, Burke consulting for MS4 on-call support, and Christopher B. Burke Engineering LLC for floodplain management consulting. Furthermore, a supplemental agreement increasing funding for the Engineering Resources Inc. contract for Huntertown Stormwater Relief and an inter-agency agreement with Allen County Community Corrections for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Atlas Virtual Academy programs using opioid settlement funds are on the agenda. The session also includes consideration of citizen and commissioner appointments to Allen County boards and commissions, and a motion to waive the second reading on necessary matters.
The meeting agenda included consideration of Resolution 2026-01-07-01 to approve a Statement of Benefits (SB-1) for BF Goodrich Tire Manufacturing, along with financial discussions including total appropriations requested in the General Fund and other funds, and a financial report from the Auditor. Several departments requested appropriations: the Sheriff's Department regarding the Jail Commissary Fund uses, the Prosecutor's Office for adjustments within the High-Tech Crimes Grant Fund, the Building Department for new/reclassified salaries, the IT Department for temporary training salaries, the Department of Environmental Management for a Hazardous Waste Technician position, and the Community Corrections for various supplies and equipment.
