The Ellis County Commission approved its consent agenda and appointed two township trustees during the meeting.

The commission voted to approve the consent agenda items a through g after a motion and second; the chair announced, "Motion carries." The transcript does not record a roll-call tally; commissioners indicated the motion passed by voice vote.

On township appointments, County Clerk and Election Official Bobby Dremling said Herzog Township recommended Tammy Domi and the Freedom Township treasurer asked that Nathan be reappointed. The commission then moved to appoint Tammy Domi as Herzog Township trustee and Nathan Rowe as Freedom Township trustee for four-year terms. A motion and second were recorded and commissioners voted in favor; the chair called for the ayes and the motion carried.

Later the commission recessed to an executive session under the Kansas Open Meetings Act exception for non-elected personnel matters. The commission recessed for five minutes with County Administrator Darren Myers and others present. When the meeting resumed the chair said no decisions were reached during the executive session and the meeting was adjourned.
