Summary

Supervisors approved the final portion of a contract with MSA Professional Services Inc. to revise the county’s zoning and subdivision ordinances; the work is distinct from an earlier comprehensive plan item.

Wapello County supervisors approved a contract amendment with MSA Professional Services Inc. for revisions to the county’s zoning ordinance and subdivision ordinance.

County staff explained the contract is the remaining portion of an original $103,000 contract; one earlier portion had funded the comprehensive plan at roughly $67,001.97, and the zoning/subdivision work is billed separately from a construction-related portion handled by a different staff member.

A supervisor asked whether the contract included construction work that another staff member, Jeff, had been working on; a staff member confirmed it did not. A motion to approve the final portion of the contract was made, seconded and approved with verbal “Aye” votes recorded.

Why it matters: The revisions are part of the county’s land-use regulatory update. The motion recorded the financial split between the comprehensive plan portion and the zoning/subdivision portion, but the transcript did not state the dollar amount specifically allocated to the zoning/subdivision revisions in the meeting excerpt.

Implementation steps, contract duration and the timetable for public review of ordinance revisions were not specified in the transcript excerpt.
