Dr. Natalie Tucker from Marian University at Plymouth will provide an update to the council.
EMA Director Jack Garner will request permission to apply for the 2026 Emergency Management Performance Grant, a federal grant that reimburses the county for 50% of the EMA director's salary.
Greg Hildebrand, Executive Director of the Marshall County Economic Development Commission, will deliver his quarterly update.
Marshall County Recorder Janet Howard will present the council with an ordinance that would support a portion of the Recorder's office operating expenses for 2027 using the Recorder's Perpetuation Fund.
