The Cass County Commission met Dec. 17, 2025, and unanimously adopted Resolution 25 1 26 approving the county's 2026 budget, followed by approval of appropriation order number 2502.

During the meeting chair (unnamed in the transcript) thanked staff for their work on the budget, saying, "Thank you, Jack, for doing the work on the budget." The commission cast a 3-0 vote in favor of the budget resolution and again 3-0 to approve the appropriation order.

Commissioners also approved multiple reappointments and appointments to the Cass County Board of Services during the same session, including the reappointment of Miss Brown and appointments of Jack Bonden Sr. and Nancy Cartmell.

The commission recessed to executive session after the business listed on the agenda.
