Webster County supervisors approve election canvas, accept urban renewal report and authorize Fort Dodge support letter
Summary
At a short special meeting, the Webster County Board of Supervisors approved the official canvas of the 12/09/2025 special election, accepted the annual urban renewal report for fiscal year 2024–2025, and authorized the chair to sign a letter of support for the City of Fort Dodge. All votes were taken by voice; numeric tallies were not provided.
The Webster County Board of Supervisors met in a brief special session and approved several routine items, including the official canvas of the special election held on 12/09/2025, the county's annual urban renewal report for fiscal year 2024—62025 and a letter of support for the City of Fort Dodge.
Unidentified Speaker, the meeting's presiding officer, opened the session and guided the board through procedural business. On approving the agenda, the presiding officer asked, "All those in favor, say aye," and recorded the result, saying, "The motion carries." The transcript records motions and second for each substantive item but does not identify who moved or seconded the motions.
For Item 4, the presiding officer introduced a motion to "approve the official canvas of the Webster County special election held on 12/09/2025." The board approved the canvas by voice vote; the transcript records verbal "Aye" responses but does not include a roll-call or numeric tally. For Item 5, the board moved and seconded approval of the annual urban renewal report for fiscal year 2024—62025 and approved it by voice vote; no further discussion or detail about the report contents was recorded in the transcript.
On Item 6, the board reviewed a letter of support intended for the City of Fort Dodge and voted to allow the chair to sign the letter on the county's behalf. The transcript says only that the motion was moved, seconded, and approved by voice; the content of the letter and the mover/second are not specified.
The meeting concluded after the board recorded a motion to adjourn and the presiding officer declared the meeting adjourned. The transcript does not provide roll-call vote counts, names of movers and seconders, nor the meeting location or the name of the presiding officer.
Next steps: none were specified in the transcript; the actions recorded were approvals by voice vote and the authorization for the chair to sign the Fort Dodge letter.
