The body also adopted a resolution allocating ARPA funds for highway department improvements (Item 6).

Several surplus-property sales were approved: sale of a 2013 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 crew cab (Item 9) and authorization to sell multiple pieces of equipment at auction (Item 10), including five Ford F-350s, one international dump truck, one international heavy-duty truck, one GMC pickup, one CAT backhoe, one forklift and one Komatsu excavator (Item 10).
