Ward County revises Public Comment Policy and approves routine administrative requests
Commissioner Olson submitted edits to the county’s Public Comment Policy, and the commission approved the changes by roll-call vote Sept. 2. The minutes do not detail the specific edits; the motion passed with Commissioners Rostad, Merritt, Olson, Schuler and Chair Fjeldahl voting yes.

Auditor/Treasurer Marisa Haman presented a pay amendment for D. Moss from the Detention Center; the commission approved the pay amendment in a subsequent motion. The minutes record the motion and vote but do not specify the adjustment amount.

Other administrative matters approved during the meeting included accepting correspondence (several reports and affidavits), approving duplicate warrants for J. Thull and Erickson Diamond T Ranch and cancelling two previously issued warrants, and granting a raffle permit to St. Mary’s Catholic Church. Department head evaluations were scheduled to follow regular meetings on Nov. 4 and Nov. 18.

During the public-comment period at the end of the meeting, the floor was opened and no one spoke. The meeting adjourned at 10:01 a.m.

Where recorded, motions were adopted by unanimous roll-call votes; several items were routine ministerial approvals and do not change county policy beyond adoption of the Public Comment Policy edits.
