Summary

The board voted to approve the consent agenda (claims and minutes), two property rezones (5-acre and 20-acre requests) and the annual workstation rotation purchase totaling $96,066.05.

The Franklin County Board of Commissioners on July 16 approved the consent agenda, granted two rezoning requests and authorized the county's annual workstation rotation purchase.

Consent agenda: The board approved claim vouchers and tax change orders totaling about $795,083.77 and approved the July 2 meeting minutes. A roll-call vote recorded unanimous approval.

Rezoning requests: Pat, a planning staff member, presented two rezoning items. The first (2641 Douglas Road) requests 5 acres of homestead off a 73-acre parcel; staff and the Planning Commission recommended approval. The second request (commonly known as 2440 Riley Road) asked to rezone 20 acres of a 60-acre parcel from A1 to A2, leaving the remaining 40 acres in A1; staff and the Planning Commission recommended approval. Commissioners said the 20-acre split reflected the owner's intent to sell a portion to cover financial obligations. Both rezones were approved on voice/roll-call votes.

Workstation rotation: County IT presented the annual workstation rotation (replacement/refresh) with an increased per-system cost; the board approved the quote in the amount of $96,066.05.
