County board authorizes purchase of property for highway facility (Resolution 40-25)
Summary
Marathon County supervisors approved a budget amendment to authorize purchase of property for a Highway Department facility (Resolution 40-25); the motion required and received a two-thirds majority, and the vote carried but was not unanimous.
Marathon County supervisors voted June 24 to authorize the purchase of property for a Marathon County Highway Department facility by approving Resolution 40-25, a budget amendment that required a two-thirds majority.
The motion, made by Supervisor Dreyback and seconded by Supervisor Robinson, passed with the clerk noting the vote carried but was not unanimous. The transcript does not specify the property's address or purchase price.
Because the item is a budget amendment, the resolution required a two-thirds majority; the board recorded the motion and the outcome but the roll-call tally beyond a recorded “aye” from Supervisor Opel was not transcribed in full.
County staff will proceed with the purchase process per the resolution; further administrative details, including closing timelines, funding source, and any required environmental or title reviews, were not included in the public transcript.
