County staff presented ratification number 14, a package of 13 emergency procurements the county requests the board ratify. The presenter said the package "includes 13 projects" and initially referenced a total of $706,000 for those projects; later remarks included a larger cumulative figure when discussing the broader set of emergency work completed this year.

Staff highlighted a large Braddock Run Sewer project completed in mid‑September and described environmental and operational impacts the county managed during bypass operations. Staff said they continue to pursue meetings with state officials to secure additional support for large sewer projects and other emergency work.

The board moved, seconded and approved item 8B by voice vote. No roll-call vote totals were provided on the record.

Clarifying detail: the presenter referenced both $706,000 (SEG 350) as the total for the 13 projects in this ratification request and elsewhere discussed larger cumulative emergency-project figures; the transcript records both figures and staff acknowledged some confusion in the running totals.
