The Darke County Board of Commissioners met on Thursday afternoon to discuss transfers of appropriations, a change order, the 2023 Tuberculosis Grant, and more.
Commissioners Matt Aultman, Marshall Combs, and Larry Holmes were present.
The board approved Resolution (R-400-2023). This is a series transfer of Appropriations. The first are two $500 transfers for the Darke County Airport for various bills.

The last is $6,000 for the Darke County Engineer to replenish the vehicle maintenance line.
The board then approved a change order between the Darke County Commissioner for the Village of New Madison and Contractor FinFrock Construction.
“This is a reduction in the contract of $23,514.40 as they wrapped up Washington Street in New Madison,” Commissioner Matt Aultman said. “As they wrap that up, they’re just trying to finalize some of the documents.”
