Mitchell City Council approved several administrative items and motions during the meeting.

Consent agenda: Council initially moved to approve the consent agenda while setting item “g” aside for discussion; after questions and follow‑up, the council moved to approve item g and the motion carried.

Package liquor license bid: Council heard that two bids were submitted for a newly created package liquor license. Westside Sinclair was the high bidder at $20,601 and council moved to approve the high bid; the motion carried.

Liquor and wine license renewals: Council moved to approve applications for renewal of 2026 liquor and wine licenses; the council approved the renewals by voice vote.

James Valley Drug Task Force (JPA): Chief (speaker 5) explained the James Valley Drug Task Force Joint Powers Agreement among Mitchell and several counties is unchanged from prior years; council approved the JPA for the coming year, with a councilmember noting the task force’s regional value in fighting drug activity.

Supplemental appropriations ordinance: Council reviewed and approved the second reading and then adopted Ordinance O 2025‑17 (supplemental appropriations for FY2025). Staff noted one change from the first reading: adding $65,000 for traffic‑light maintenance expected to be reimbursed by liability insurance so the amendment provides budget authority if reimbursement is delayed. A roll‑call vote adopting the ordinance recorded unanimous ayes and the ordinance passed.

These items were carried by motions recorded on the agenda; no further substantive debate was held on most items.
