Dodge County board approves 50-year style lease with City of Juneau for administration building grounds
Summary
The Dodge County Board approved Resolution 24-35 authorizing a lease with the City of Juneau for land near the county administration building despite at least one supervisor asking to postpone until board members could review the full lease document; the board recorded the vote as 27–1.
The Dodge County Board of Supervisors approved Resolution 24-35 authorizing a lease with the City of Juneau for space on the administration building grounds after a brief debate about available documentation.
Supervisor Bridal said he was uncomfortable voting without seeing the full lease, telling the board, "I would be more in favor of postponing this till October meeting, so we could have some information on it." General discussion noted that the resolution includes "the general terms of the lease," and that a formal lease document would be produced only after board approval. A board member explained the arrangement is expected to carry no direct cost to the county other than snow removal and that the resolution contains a termination provision allowing the county to reclaim the area if needed.
The resolution’s fiscal note states there is no fiscal impact "as Dodge County and the City of Juneau have not agreed on a lease value." After discussion, the board voted in favor of the resolution; the chair announced the measure passed 27 to 1.
The resolution was introduced by the building committee and submitted Sept. 17, 2024. It directs staff to proceed with the lease framework described in the resolution; the transcript does not include the final lease document or an exact lease value.
