Clark County Board | August 21, 2026

Article Summary: Three items on the Clark County Board’s Aug. 21, 2026, New Business agenda were tabled without action: a liquor license request tied to the purchase of the CB Shop in Wabash Township, a presentation on Air Medcare, and a resolution on criminal and traffic assessments charged by the circuit clerk.

Tabled Items Key Points:

A liquor license request from Ajy Patel, tied to purchasing the CB Shop and adding gaming and alcohol, was tabled after Patel did not appear.

A presentation by Andy Yenchochic with Air Medcare was tabled because of a scheduling conflict.

A resolution amending a Dec. 17, 2021, resolution on criminal and traffic assessments was tabled, with no reason recorded.

The minutes record no motion or vote for any of the three tablings.

CLARK COUNTY — Three of the seven New Business items before the Clark County Board on Friday, Aug. 21, 2026, were tabled, in each case without a recorded motion or vote.

The most substantive was a request for a liquor license connected to a change of ownership. The posted agenda listed “Discuss and Possible Approval for Liquor License to Ajy Patel – Purchase CB Shop and Add Gaming and Alcohol.” According to the minutes, “Mr. Patel did not show up to present his plan for the building in Wabash Township. This agenda item was tabled.”

The record contains no further detail — no address, no description of the existing business, no indication of what gaming would involve, and no date on which the item is expected to return. Liquor licensing for unincorporated areas falls to the county board, which also acts on one-day permits; the board approved one such permit at the same meeting, for Moe’s Package Liquors for Sept. 5, 2026.

Air Medcare Presentation Postponed

A second item, listed on the agenda as “Andy Yenchochic – Air Medcare,” was tabled “due to a scheduling conflict with Mr. Yenchochic,” the minutes state. No description of the presentation’s subject appears in the record.

Assessments Resolution Tabled Without Explanation

The third tabling was the meeting’s only unexplained one. The agenda item read “Discuss and Possible Approval of Resolution Amending the Amended Resolution Signed December 17, 2021: Establishing Criminal and Traffic Assessments to be Charged by the Clerk of the Circuit Court.” The minutes say only: “This agenda item was tabled.”

No reason is given, no board member is identified as raising a concern, and no revised date is recorded. The resolution would amend an existing county resolution governing what the circuit clerk charges in criminal and traffic cases — a schedule that reaches anyone who passes through the county’s courts — and the amending document itself was not part of the materials reviewed for this report.

Circuit Clerk Ami Shaw is listed in the meeting’s attendance record, as is State’s Attorney Kyle Hutson. Neither is recorded as speaking to the item.

The board took no action on appointments, item 13 on the agenda, where the minutes state there were no appointments. Of the remaining New Business items, the board approved employee health insurance with United Healthcare, the one-day liquor license, and the 2027 holiday schedule, and received an audit presentation from Auditor Carol Holbert on fiscal year 2025.

The board adjourned at 10:35 a.m. until Sept. 17, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. for budget hearings. The minutes do not indicate whether the tabled items will be taken up at that session.
