At the Franklin County drainage board meeting, members voted to approve prior drainage minutes and claims and approved drainage permit 2025-7, which staff described as related to electrical upgrades. The approvals were moved, seconded and passed by voice vote.
During the item on permit 2025-7, staff said the project involves electrical upgrades and will not cross any county drainage tiles. "They're not crossing any drainage," a staff member said, and a $150 fee check was recorded as received.
Motions to approve the minutes and claims were each moved and seconded; the board voted "aye" on each voice vote. On the permit, a board member said, "K. I'll move to approve," another seconded, and the permit passed by voice vote.
The board noted it would recess its session to join a separate joint drainage meeting with Hancock and a neighboring county listed in the agenda. The chair or staff advised that the joint meeting details were posted in the agenda for those who wished to attend.
The approvals were procedural and did not include a recorded roll-call tally in the minutes beyond unanimous voice assent during the meeting.
