Summary
The Pratt County board approved a new sheriff's office retention hire, signed a lease for the old EMS building, approved amendments and agreements for a thermal project's road use, authorized multiple road crossings, approved an IT laptop purchase (ARPA funds), changed a building lock, approved vouchers and adjourned.
Unidentified Speaker 1 led a series of routine motions that the board approved during the meeting, including a personnel hire, a lease of county space, contract amendments and infrastructure authorizations.
The board approved hiring Mark Smith as a sheriff's office retention officer at $17.25 per hour; the motion was voiced and the board said "Aye." Unidentified Speaker 1 moved to approve minutes from the prior meeting and the motion carried.
The board entered a short executive session for attorney-client matters and later exited with a motion recording that no action had been taken.
The board authorized a lease agreement with KHP to use offices in the old EMS building and approved a first amendment to correct a date on a guarantee within a road-use agreement. The board also authorized a road use and maintenance agreement tied to a thermal project and approved multiple road crossings (Lake Road; Southeast 10th Ave and 20th Ave; Northwest 90th Ave along Sections 7 and 8; 50th Ave and 70th Street; 30th Ave and Southwest 60th Street).

The meeting adjourned after scheduling the next meeting for Tuesday the 18th at 9:00 a.m.
