The Wayne County Board met for its regular monthly meeting Thursday evening in the upstairs courtroom, with 13 members present.<\/p>\n
Board Chairman Daryl Hargrave appointed Nate Burgess to fill a vacancy on the Wayne County 911 Authority Board, following a recommendation from 911 Board Chairman Scott Clark.<\/p>\n
The board also heard from Dave Shipley of Midwest Telecom, who discussed the outdated internet infrastructure at both the Wayne County Jail and the courthouse. After a detailed discussion, board members voted unanimously to approve a complete system upgrade at a cost of $28,823.13. The expense will be covered using funds already allocated for courthouse repairs and improvements.<\/p>\n
A light agenda followed, which included routine office reports from Sheriff Chris Otey, County Clerk Liz Ann Woodrow, and Coroner Shari Winter.<\/p>\n
In committee reports, Building and Grounds Chairman Quinton Greenwalt informed the board that Phase 8 of the new heating and air conditioning system installation had begun at the courthouse. He presented a contractor\u2019s bill for $29,500, which the board approved without opposition.<\/p>\n
With no further business to discuss, the meeting was adjourned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Wayne County Board met for its regular monthly meeting Thursday evening in the upstairs courtroom, with 13…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":66257,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[85,123,46,125],"class_list":{"0":"post-66256","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-internet","8":"tag-il","9":"tag-internet","10":"tag-israel","11":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66256","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=66256"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66256\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/66257"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=66256"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=66256"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=66256"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
