## Resource

County officials announce a major shift in services, partnering with Meridian Behavioral Health to manage detox and withdrawal care at the University Avenue East facility — a move expected to save $2 million annually and adopt a community-based model like other counties. Meanwhile, board members will see a 3.5% salary increase in 2027, and the annual performance report — covering everything from recycling to veteran services — is approved for state audit.
