Warren County's Board of Commissioners met July 15 to consider a text amendment to the Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance (SALDO), Act 13 funding requests for two municipalities, and a contract award for the Spring Creek Bike-Hike Trail. Official minutes from that meeting have not yet been published, so outcomes are not yet available.
County Commissioners — July 15
The Commissioners held a public hearing to receive public comment on a proposed text amendment to Ordinance 2, the Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance (SALDO). No other business was scheduled for the hearing portion.
The regular commissioners meeting included several new business items:

- **Notice to Award — Spring Creek Bike-Hike Trail (EADS)** — a proposed contract award for the trail project.
- **CYS System Software Upgrade 2026** — a proposed software upgrade for Children and Youth Services.
- **Reassessment Appeals Settlement Offers** — proposed settlements on property reassessment appeals.
The agenda also listed a consent agenda with routine reports, minutes, and a proclamation, plus a bonus policy and an IT consulting agreement. Minutes have not been published, so vote tallies and final actions are not yet confirmed.
