Board reallocates $150,000 in CIP funds from proposed Moville shop purchase to Little Sioux Park Road
Summary
The supervisors approved moving $150,000 of FY26 CIP funds originally allocated toward real estate for a Moville shop to the Little Sioux Park Road project to avoid triggering a public election threshold; vote 4-0.
WOODBURY COUNTY — The Board of Supervisors voted to reallocate $150,000 in fiscal-year 2026 capital improvement funds from a proposed real-estate purchase (Moville shop) to the Little Sioux Park Road project.
Ryan Erickson, the county's budget and finance director, told the board that if the overall Moville project exceeded $1.5 million it would require a public election; moving the $150,000 now would preserve lost funds and avoid an unintended election trigger while allowing the Little Sioux Park Road project to advance. “I'm suggesting we move that $150,000 to the Little Sioux Park Road, which then will free up LOST funds if the real estate is purchased as desired,” Erickson said.
The supervisors voted 4-0 to approve the reallocation. No additional public hearing was recorded on the item during the meeting; staff will update budgets accordingly.
What happened next: The board instructed staff to reallocate the CIP funds; the measure passed unanimously.
