Commissioners approve minutes, authorize mileage payments and lease signing
Summary
At its meeting the Kennebec County Commissioners approved minutes from May 20 and June 3 (as amended), authorized commissioner mileage payments and voted to authorize a county representative to sign a lease agreement.
The Kennebec County Commissioners approved meeting minutes and took three formal votes during their meeting.
The commissioners approved the May 20 minutes and approved the June 3 minutes "as amended," following a motion and second. Commissioners then unanimously authorized payment of mileage for commissioners for county-related travel. Later in the meeting commissioners voted to authorize a county representative to sign a lease agreement on the county's behalf.
Why it matters: those votes complete routine procedural business that the county requires to maintain records and authorize reimbursements and contracts. The mileage vote formalizes reimbursement for commissioner travel. The lease authorization gives an identified county representative authority to complete an agreement at the staff level.
Details of the formal actions voted on: the transcript records motions, seconds and voice approval for each item but does not provide roll-call tallies or named yes/no votes. The motions recorded in the meeting minutes are summarized below.
