The Bay County Board of Commissioners voted May 19 to award a juvenile home financial assessment contract to Gabridge and Company (RFP 2026-07, Resolution 2026-106). A commissioner asked staff for more detail about what the assessment will examine and how results will be used.
Bonnie, a county staff member, described the assessment as "in the simplest terms, just [a] cost analysis based on, you know, current expenses, revenue coming in from current Bay County residents and residents from outside of Bay County," and said the review is intended to ensure resources are being used efficiently. The board approved the award by voice vote with no recorded opposition.
The assessment will be administered by the county's juvenile services and finance staff and is expected to produce a report to the board; the exact timeline and total contract amount were not specified in the discussion and were recorded as "not specified" in meeting materials.
