Summary

The Page County Board of Supervisors approved Resolution 2925 appointing Michelle Foss as assistant Page County attorney; County Attorney Farley confirmed she was sworn in by the Iowa Supreme Court.

The Page County Board of Supervisors approved Resolution 2925 appointing Michelle Foss as assistant Page County attorney.

County Attorney Farley updated the board that Foss “was sworn in by the Supreme Court today,” making her an Iowa attorney and eligible to begin county employment after completing a county physical. Farley said Foss planned to complete her physical next week, after which she could begin working in the county office.

Board action: A supervisor moved to approve Resolution 2925; another supervisor seconded and the board voted “Aye.” The transcript records the motion, a second and an affirmative voice vote. No roll-call names or vote tallies were recorded in the transcript.

Why it matters: The appointment restores capacity in the county attorney’s office by adding an assistant attorney. Farley said the hire will result in a full staff once Foss starts work.

Implementation: Farley noted the remaining administrative step is a county-required physical exam. The start date is contingent on completion of that physical and on standard onboarding steps.

Ending: Supervisors approved the resolution by voice vote; no additional board direction or conditions were recorded.
