Jackson County Legislature votes to excuse three absent members
Summary
Under unfinished business on May 21 the Jackson County Legislature voted to excuse Legislators Lauer, Anderson and Peyton; the motion passed with a recorded tally of 5 yes, 1 no and 3 absent.
The Jackson County Legislature on May 21 voted to excuse Legislators Lauer, Anderson and Peyton during the meeting's unfinished business segment.
A motion was made to excuse the three members; the clerk then called the roll. After the roll call the clerk announced the result: "5 yes, 1 no, 3 absent. So we're making them excused now. So 3 excused." The motion carried and the three legislators were marked excused for this session.
The nut graf: the action cleared the record for the meeting by formally excusing absences; the transcript does not show a recorded mover or seconder for the motion. The vote was taken by roll call and recorded; no further debate or conditions were entered on the record.
The action occurred during unfinished business and was followed by routine reports from the County Executive's Office and the continuation of meeting business. The next regular legislative session was scheduled for May 22 at 10 a.m. at the Jackson County Courthouse.
