Summary

The Board ratified administrative letters, approved the Halloweentown permit and was briefed about a treasurer vacancy while the chief deputy serves as acting treasurer.

The board ratified administrative correspondence including a notice of intent to dismiss dated in August 2025 after a staff motion and vote.

Staff presented the city permit for the Halloweentown event (permit C124-2025) with an earlier start date than previously shown; the permit includes a provision that allows placement of porta-potties on county property subject to approval of locations, and the board authorized the chair to sign the permit.

On staffing, the board was briefed that the elected county treasurer is no longer a county employee and that the chief deputy treasurer, Annie Jurkowitz, has been appointed by the elected official to perform treasurer duties and already has electronic signature authority in the system. Staff and the board discussed next steps for appointing an interim treasurer or waiting for a formal resignation and appointment process.

No votes were taken on appointments at this meeting; staff said they will notify the board when a resignation is received or a formal appointment is required.
