The Carroll County Board of Supervisors convened on October 6, 2025, to discuss several key issues, including the annual urban renewal report and updates on manure management.

The meeting began with a discussion led by Courtney regarding the Iowa Corn Processors Urban Renewal area. Although the area is currently inactive, the board is still required to file an annual report. Courtney noted that the urban renewal plan has a 20-year duration, and despite the current zeros in the report, it is essential to maintain the filing for potential future developments. The board unanimously approved the fiscal year 2025 urban renewal annual report.

Next, Jesse Baum provided updates on manure management across various sections of Maple River and Wheatland Townships, reporting no changes in the management practices for the sites reviewed.

In committee reports, one supervisor mentioned a complaint from a Mount Carmel resident about racing on local streets, indicating ongoing community concerns. Additionally, there was positive news regarding interest in board positions, with three individuals expressing a desire to fill a vacancy left by Dr. Hein.

The meeting also highlighted various community events attended by board members, including a cancer meeting and a pitch event for small businesses, where several grants were awarded. Upcoming meetings were scheduled, including discussions on opioid fund applications and economic development initiatives.

Overall, the meeting underscored the board's commitment to community engagement and ongoing management of local resources, while addressing both administrative requirements and resident concerns.
