Clay County Commission approves agenda, consent items and prosecutor invoices; Thompson recuses from prosecutor payment
The Clay County Commission unanimously approved the evening agenda and a multi-item consent agenda, and later approved payment of prosecutor office invoices after one commissioner recused.

The meeting began with a motion by Commissioner Jay Johnson to adopt the agenda. After a brief roll call the motion carried 5–0.

The consent agenda consolidated several routine items and passed in a single vote. The county administrator summarized items on the consent agenda, including: meeting minutes for June 5 and June 12; Resolution 2025-198 approving invoice payments for Clay County from June 7 to June 20 (the accounts-payable report listed about 728 invoices totaling $4,844,240.14); Resolution 2025-197 designating authority for UMB Bank as presented by the auditor’s office; Resolution 2025-201 authorizing a cooperative purchasing service agreement with McConnell and Associates for pavement and related services; IFB 22To25 award to HHF Vending LLC (vending machines for parks); and Resolution 2025-195 approving a professional service agreement with the Clay County Soil and Water Conservation Commission. Commissioner Jay Johnson moved to approve the consent agenda; the roll call vote was 5–0 in favor.

The commission then considered regular agenda item 2025-199, approval of invoice payments for the Clay County Prosecutor’s Office for the period 06/07/2025 to 06/20/2025. The county administrator said there were “about 16 invoices totaling $4,052.28.” Commissioner Johnson moved to approve 2025-199. The roll call recorded Commissioner Thompson as recused; the measure passed with four votes in favor and one recusal.

The commission recorded the recusal on the prosecutor invoice item but did not otherwise take any separate action on recusals or conflicts during the meeting.

Provenance
The agenda approvals, consent package summary and vote tallies were recorded in the meeting transcript during the roll calls and the administrator’s summaries at the start of the meeting.
