Summary
Supervisors approved claims and payroll items including a payroll change for the Ferris office and acknowledged building projects (foundations, vault door, shop steel) and maintenance issues (ice dams, a damaged door) and scheduled follow-up repairs.
The board approved routine financial items by voice vote, including claims/works and payroll. Speaker 3 moved to approve claims and Speaker 1 and Speaker 3 led payroll motions; members said "aye" and carried the measures.
Speaker 1 introduced a payroll change for the Ferris office (Barry Olsen was referenced); Speaker 3 moved to approve the change and the board voted in favor. The board also "acknowledged the change payroll" for a county associate as recorded during the meeting.
On facilities, Speaker 6 reported conservation work nearly finished, foundations and slabs completed for multiple buildings, and delivery of steel for the big shop. The office building's vault area remains pending a delivery for the vault door, and members instructed that a damaged back door be locked and repaired (Joe Perova identified as the person to fix it). The board discussed ice-dam mitigation and the tradeoffs of using heated gutter systems versus unplugging during very cold weather and using sand for traction in parking areas.
These were procedural approvals and informational updates; no substantial contracts or new capital authorizations were approved at the meeting.
