What happens next

The Franklin County Board of Commissioners agenda lists the travel expense reimbursement policy for its October 5, 2026 meeting.

The story

The Franklin County Board of Commissioners' minutes from September 29, 2026 record a proposed travel expense reimbursement policy with a daily meal and incidental rate of $68. The minutes list $16 for breakfast, $19 for lunch, $28 for dinner and $5 for incidentals. The minutes do not record a vote on the proposal.

The board's agenda for October 5, 2026 lists a "Travel Expense Reimbursement Policy" as an item. An agenda shows what is scheduled, not what was decided, so the record does not yet show whether the board adopted the policy or the rate.
