Public Safety Committee forwards appellate prosecutor resolution to executive committee; motion carried
Summary
The committee voted to send a budgeted resolution appointing the appellate prosecutor's office to the executive committee for placement on the October County Board agenda; the motion carried by voice vote.
The Lee County Public Safety Committee voted to forward a resolution authorizing continued use of the Appellate Prosecutor’s Office to the county executive committee for inclusion on the October County Board agenda.
Charlie, the committee chair, asked for a motion to move the item to the executive committee. The committee then approved the motion by voice vote; the meeting record shows members signaled “aye” and the chair declared the motion carried.
Charlie noted that the appellate prosecutor resolution "mirrors the resolutions that have been done in the past" and that the expense is a budgeted item. Charlie said the resolution is intended to authorize the Appellate Prosecutor’s Office to handle appeals, conflicts or appellate legal assistance as needed. The county’s state’s attorney, Mister Boenstra, told the committee the resolution is already accounted for in the budget.
No roll-call vote or named vote tallies were recorded in the committee discussion; the committee used a voice vote to carry the motion. The committee did not make changes to the substance of the draft resolution during the discussion and did not take additional formal action beyond forwarding the item to the executive committee.
