Commissioners approve claims payment subject to verification on eminent‑domain appraisals
Summary
Commissioners voted to approve claims generally but conditioned approval of several claims tied to pending eminent‑domain appraisals on verification of court orders and invoices.
Boone County commissioners approved the claims docket after a commissioner requested verification of several claims tied to ongoing eminent‑domain proceedings.
A commissioner said there were multiple claims related to appraisals and eminent‑domain actions for a roundabout project on 400 East and 100 South and asked that payment approval be conditioned on verification that the invoices matched the claims. The commissioners agreed and approved the claims with the understanding that supporting documentation and court orders would be provided for the appraisals and eminent‑domain invoices.
Highway staff confirmed that for each pending eminent‑domain there are three appraisers ordered by the court and said they would provide court orders and documentation.
Why it matters: Payment of appraisal and eminent‑domain related invoices requires accurate matching to court orders and legal requirements; commissioners sought to ensure proper documentation before finalizing payment.
What’s next: Highway and county clerk staff will supply the court orders and invoice documentation for verification; claims will be processed consistent with that verification.
