Summary

After a closed session on the Veterans Memorial, Sawyer County authorized staff to start the purchase process for property at 15785 U.S. Highway 63 for construction of a veteran tribute, authorizing up to $105,000 for acquisition and construction-related costs.

Following a closed-session discussion about the Veterans Memorial, Sawyer County—s finance committee voted to authorize county staff to begin the purchase process for property at 15785 U.S. Highway 63 and to limit acquisition and related construction costs to not more than $105,000.

The motion to begin the purchase process was made by Mark Helwig and seconded by Jeff Haney; the committee voted in favor and the motion passed. The action followed a closed session called to discuss the Veterans Memorial; the committee returned to open session and moved forward with the action.

Meeting minutes show the motion language: "Make a motion to have Mike Markran start the purchase process of the property at 15785 US Highway 63 for the cost of not to exceed 105,000 for construction of the veteran tribute." The motion carried after discussion and the committee directed staff to proceed with the purchase process under that limit.

The transcript does not specify further contractual terms, closing timeline, or funding source for the purchase; the committee did not record a roll-call tally in the publicly available transcript.
