Bay County commissioners approve slate of routine resolutions, set library millage for November ballot

The Bay County Board of Commissioners met May 19, 2026, and approved a series of resolutions that the board described as routine business. Among the votes, the board moved to place a millage renewal for the Bay County Library System on the November 2026 ballot.

Other unanimous approvals included a revenue-sharing agreement with Monitor Township and the Monitor Downtown Development Authority (Resolution 2026-99), a Crime Victim Rights grant agreement for 2026–2027 (Resolution 2026-100), and a conversion of county BS&A financial software to a cloud-hosted environment (Resolution 2026-101). The board also approved agreements for Summit Fire Protection (2026-104), a Zybex console reconfiguration (2026-103), and multiple administrative items such as a Debt Book software agreement (2026-113) and an emergency management performance grant program award (2026-117).

Several procurement and capital items cleared the board. The commissioners awarded a pool locker-room remodel contract to Spence Brothers (RFP 2026-03, Resolution 2026-107) and accepted a bid to Gabridge and Company for a juvenile home financial assessment (RFP 2026-07, Resolution 2026-106). The board also approved bid awards and a budget adjustment for Bay County Golf Course bunker restoration (Resolutions 2026-111 and 2026-112) and a range of smaller administrative resolutions related to personnel appointments and routine fiduciary filings.

All motions recorded in the meeting were moved, supported and carried by voice vote with no recorded opposing votes. The meeting concluded with announcements about upcoming Memorial Day services and project updates on county capital improvements.
