The Toole County Commission approved several board reappointments and appointments and adopted a resolution changing a local voting precinct during a brief meeting in which commissioners also discussed road equipment needs and gravel-pit arrangements.
Commissioners voted to approve the Jan. 9 meeting minutes and then approved reappointments and appointments including: reappointments of Bonnie Wigan and Rosalie Manley to the Shelby Senior Center board with terms expiring Dec. 31, 2027; reappointment of Chuck Keller to the airport board with a term expiring Dec. 31, 2029; and reappointments of Billyette Coolidge, Sophie Godfrey and Leonora McKeown to the Sunburst Senior Center board with terms expiring Dec. 31, 2027. The commission also approved appointments to the fair board, naming Nicole (last name not specified) to replace Janet Hawkes, with a term ending Dec. 31, 2025, and Bailey (last name not specified) to replace Miranda Dupree, with a term ending Dec. 31, 2026.
The commission considered filling the remaining term of Tina Rourke on a senior center board. The transcript records both “Tim Hoffman” and “Kim Hoffman” in connection with that appointment; the record is inconsistent on the appointee’s given name. The commission moved and seconded the appointment during the meeting.
In other business, commissioners discussed several road-related items listed on the agenda: the possible purchase of two John Deere tractors, consideration of two graders to replace older machines in the next fiscal year, discussion of dual-county gravel pits, and a proposed clothing allowance for road department employees. The transcript records these topics as agenda items and discussion points; no formal motions or votes on equipment purchases, clothing allowances or gravel-pit contracts were recorded in the transcript.
The commission also considered and approved Resolution 5 20 25, described in the meeting as changing the voting precinct for property at City Shop Road in Shelby “from Shelby bridal to City of Shelby voting precinct.” The resolution packet was said to include the legal land description.
