Staff said they included Easton Valley schools on the closure notifications and that detour signage and a temporary hand-painted sign were deployed to provide advanced notice. The office also said it uses text and email alerts and can notify fire, ambulance and school systems when closures occur; supervisors discussed using mass alerts or radio to reach county employees and partners.

The board received an update on Moorhead Ridge bridge: staff said final plans are complete, a contractor has been authorized to proceed, and the repair is expected this fall with a cost estimate between $30,000 and $45,000. Staff noted the repair addresses the truss but does not replace the deck or substructure; because the substructure and deck retain poor condition ratings, the bridge’s official score (for future grant rounds) would not change. Staff said the bridge will retain a 15-ton weight limit.

Staff also reported annual pavement markings have started earlier than normal so the county can benefit from new striping over the summer; the county plans similar safety improvements (paved shoulders, rumble strips, wider markings) for an overlay on Bernard Road next summer. County staff said they will submit a recently completed paving project for a smoothness incentive through the Asphalt Paving Association of Iowa; the smoothness incentive is a bid item that pays contractors, and selection for an award carries recognition but not additional payment beyond the contract incentive.

On equipment and operations, staff reported reclaiming work is ahead of schedule, ditch-cleaning continues, and a tracked excavator (“track hoe”) was arriving in June. Supervisors noted ongoing coordination with a safety committee meeting and urged timely public notifications for closures. The board did not take formal action on these operational updates.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Jackson County Iowa Board of Supervisors Meeting 6-10-2025","oneSentenceSummary","County staff briefed supervisors on an upcoming concrete repair closure, a planned fall repair for Moorhead Ridge bridge with a $30,000–$45,000 estimate and other paving and reclaiming activities.","taxTitle","taxId",38127,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_47":80,"_49":81,"_51":82,"_53":83,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":84,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":85,"_67":56,"_68":69,"_70":56,"_71":72,"_73":72},6203809,"Jackson County adopts policy to record subscription-based IT agreements for audits",356,876000,1232000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3781418-ed158f7a1f01ff77e3b32837ce86d49b&start=876&end=1232","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3781418-ed158f7a1f01ff77e3b32837ce86d49b/thumbnail_876000.jpg","/articles/6203809/Jackson-County/Iowa/Jackson-County-adopts-policy-to-record-subscription-based-IT-agreements-for-audits","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6203809-f0c5ae59cdfc9b977fe96f2473a5c2f0/orig.mp4?Expires=1771143833&Signature=Q6CAOIR9B4okJl9vVx4rC3xFrL1vscr38elg5E1IJTR8R~p6tFlNSOsv0nG41zi6EkfnWV29ed38AqDDDxhxzLMisowY~RkYDnPG7wE3hTAhTBDn31V1tV263HRM9eYjHSS2595wGXGXtzFz7c8FQZ-qbQyT4PZ2jINCk9O~sx9yV0zv5gnM461KnIvKa9fOd4oVYWjw35NrpL67tsaPYg0~AohsL~q0WW7sLZrX8hkurBrMAQcIXdFGGcr-N44nGHfaaBPWpBTCMcMJ04SrbOeHI0V-8-O4GSah3z9qfEdfLLuk-LRMU02y20KYVMWuzitKYji8Wkzb8BCi~6w6Zw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Jackson County Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday to adopt a Subscription-Based Information Technology Agreements policy (CBITA), effective July 1, to comply with requirements from the state auditors to report outstanding lease and subscription values as of June 30 each year.

Auditor Lisa Smith and staff member Shelly told the board the policy requires the county to record the remaining value of leases and subscription agreements — including intangible subscriptions such as software licenses — as of June 30 for the auditor's report. Smith said the intent is to capture outstanding value on multi-year leases or subscriptions (for example, a five-year lease for a postage machine) and to treat subscription arrangements as intangible assets for reporting.

Board members asked several clarifying questions: how to calculate remaining value (Smith described prorating contract totals over term), whether the policy affects procurement rules (it does not), and whether intangible items used by outside offices (for example, attorney software) would be included (Smith said yes, if an agreement exists). Smith and Shelly said the auditor's office will email departments asking them to report agreements and that claims will also flag items that should be captured. The county will exclude payroll still not processed into the system as of the report date.

Supervisor Nen Fuego moved to adopt the CBITA policy; Supervisor Mike Steinas seconded. The board approved the motion by voice vote.

The meeting record does not include a department-level inventory; Auditor Smith said she will notify departments to report agreements going forward. The board set the policy effective July 1 and did not attach additional procurement changes during the meeting.","The board adopted a subscription-based information technology agreements (CBITA) policy, requiring departments to report the outstanding value of leases and subscriptions as of June 30 for audit reporting.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_47":92,"_49":93,"_51":94,"_53":95,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":96,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":97,"_67":56,"_68":69,"_70":56,"_71":72,"_73":72},6203814,"Jackson County board approves FY2026 RCTP awards for four cities",134,31000,165000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3781418-ed158f7a1f01ff77e3b32837ce86d49b&start=31&end=165","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3781418-ed158f7a1f01ff77e3b32837ce86d49b/thumbnail_31000.jpg","/articles/6203814/Jackson-County/Iowa/Jackson-County-board-approves-FY2026-RCTP-awards-for-four-cities","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6203814-430c403c11a3d2bdde23942a89040754/orig.mp4?Expires=1771143833&Signature=ZieGOYVvVq9lajYmN7s-CIPzcd~3jP~9k4ISLgP9ewDlWo3nL2YsS7vKUCg3cYjfZyBTQiRMDQrHvhj6lywXGV5XvNNKk7Leq1a1C~B~YetBxJyZpTsL9XOse6k3SM3wAmcQtbTjxxtQU5sE2iQuBw-gBwwNeLLB7D5C-EvUDCBlEKt29Won89IAexX~aVr-HRZprej6RTCjF4rvAp4Y3Nh7m7kPHAVAWtyBAUKHGpFQPEB1RIwRRgfbRkuzsUfExlu2LWKzdgi-RcDcI~kMEr1m8t9kvZjh5JzuqHC8PyjfwtOZhFzXBbcnRrFOGlKTncPWW~do8Ol6b82BIVQRvg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Jackson County Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday to approve Fiscal Year 2026 RCTP awards for four cities, allocating $25,000 to Miles for street resurfacing, $7,380 to Baldwin for street repairs, $25,000 to Monmouth for Division Street resurfacing and $12,620 to Bellevue for Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) improvements.

County staff told the board that city applications were sent to ECIA for review and scoring and that ECIA recommended the four projects. County staff and supervisors said each city must provide a local match — roughly 20 percent, though the exact match varies by project — and that the ECIA scoring and project pictures were provided to the board for review.

During discussion, board members pressed for confirmation that matches exist and that ECIA had graded and ranked the submissions; staff confirmed both. Supervisor Nen Fuego moved to approve the FY2026 RCTP funding as recommended; Supervisor Mike Steinas seconded. The board approved the motion by voice vote.

The authorization instructs staff to proceed with distributing the awards and documenting local matches as required by the RCTP process. The board did not set additional conditions on the awards during the meeting.

Action details and next steps were not expanded beyond the approval vote; the board recorded the motion and carried it by voice vote.","The Jackson County Board of Supervisors approved Rural County Transfer Program (RCTP) awards for Miles, Baldwin, Monmouth and Bellevue after county staff said ECIA ranked city applications and local matches apply.","actionData","errors"]
