The Johnson County Board of Supervisors convened for a work session on January 2, 2025, at 9:39 AM. The meeting began with a roll call, confirming the presence of five supervisors, establishing a quorum. The agenda was approved unanimously following a motion by Supervisor Fixborough Reis and a second by Supervisor Remington.
The session included a public comment period, but no comments were made. The board then moved on to discuss state and federal legislative issues, focusing on updates related to the Urban County Coalition and pending legislation that may impact Johnson County. Supervisor Sullivan inquired about changes to specific legislative items, which were addressed by staff member Aaron.
Next, the board discussed operational issues, specifically the designation of an annual floating holiday. Supervisor Sullivan proposed adopting Christmas Eve as the floating holiday instead of December 26, citing a lack of opposition and support for the change. The board reached a consensus to formalize this amendment for the next meeting.
Further operational discussions included the assignment of department head liaisons. Supervisor Sullivan sought clarification on the intent to assign Mandy as the liaison for departments previously overseen by Royceann. The board agreed to update the liaison list accordingly.
The meeting concluded with no additional operational issues raised. The next scheduled meeting of the Board of Supervisors will be a budget work session on January 6 at 9 AM. The session was adjourned shortly thereafter.
