Crawford County Commission records motions for bids, housing study and tax-sale work; HHW improvements discussed
Summary
The Crawford County Commission recorded several administrative motions and heard updates from staff on procurement, a housing needs study and the county tax-sale process at a September meeting.
The Crawford County Commission recorded several administrative motions and received status updates on county projects at a September meeting.
Early in the meeting the commission read four agenda motions: motion 25-373 to approve the consent agenda; motion 25-374 to approve going out for bid for two boilers for the Pittsburg Judicial Center; motion 25-375 to approve an agreement with Novogradick for a housing needs analysis and authorize the chair to sign; and motion 25-376 to hold an executive session to discuss legal advice. The transcript records the motions by number and text but does not record roll-call vote tallies or a formal outcome for each motion in the provided excerpt.
County staff and commissioners also discussed the county tax-sale process. Officials said a law firm that represents roughly 30 counties has been engaged to assist with the tax sale; the firm has requested spreadsheets in a specific format and staff said they have begun preparing the data. The commission was told the firm will start new-case work and later return to finish an older case, with an overall aim to complete work before 2026.
Solid-waste and household hazardous-waste (HHW) matters were discussed. Commissioners said they had a detailed HHW discussion earlier in the day and will work with Triad (Dennis Meyer) and county staff to upgrade an FOP document prepared in 2010; staff and consultants discussed options intended to reduce the program’s net cost. A county official named Lindsay Peters (KVG) was cited as providing useful information during the review.
Other administrative notes included procurement status on the two boilers (one bidder inquiry reported), plans to sell or repurpose older county mowers and equipment pending an updated inventory, and a mid-month bills and payroll schedule and upcoming work sessions (Sept. 12, Sept. 16 and Sept. 19 were listed in the meeting notes).
Commissioners discussed scheduling for a comprehensive-plan survey presentation on Sept. 19 from Joshua Allen and a workers’ compensation discussion with Colin Halthus of Kegwork on Sept. 16. No formal votes on the tax-sale vendor selection, boiler contract, or housing-analysis agreement are recorded in the excerpt provided.
The meeting closed with a motion to adjourn. The transcript provided does not include detailed vote records for the motions read at the start of the meeting.
