Clay County commission approves consent agenda, several resolutions; prosecutor invoices approved with one recusal
Summary
The Clay County Commission approved its agenda and a six-item consent package including invoice payments totaling $1,407,030.14 and several resolutions. A separate roll call approved six prosecutor invoices totaling $1,193.94 with one commissioner recusing.
The Clay County Commission approved the meeting agenda and a six-item consent agenda, including routine payments and contracts, and separately approved invoice payments for the county prosecutor’s office after a commissioner recused.
The consent agenda passed unanimously in a single roll call vote after Administrator summarized the six items and the total amounts. The regular-agenda item — invoice payments for the Clay County Prosecutor’s Office — passed on a separate roll call with five votes in favor and one recusal.
The consent package included approval of the commission minutes from March 6 (Resolution 2025-83); county invoice payments from March 8–14 covering 419 invoices and totaling $1,407,030.14 (Resolution 2025-86); acceptance of the annual settlement of the county collector for the fiscal year ending Feb. 28, 2025 (Resolution 2025-86); the county’s 2025 payment to University of Missouri Extension (Resolution 2025-85); approval of the regional multi-hazard mitigation plan with the Mid-America Regional Council (Resolution 2025-89); and authorization of RFP 91-24 and a professional services contract for video production services with MacDaniels Marketing (Resolution 2025-88). Each of those items was approved as part of the consent agenda vote.
On the regular agenda, Resolution 2025-84, approving six invoices for the Clay County Prosecutor’s Office for the period March 8–14 totaling $1,193.94, was moved by Commissioner Johnson and approved with five affirmative votes. Commissioner Thompson recused himself from that vote; the minutes record the motion passing “5 in favor, 1 recusal.”
