The Morrow County Commissioners on June 3 approved a slate of routine items including the minutes of May 29, bills for payment, a transfer for the engineer's fund, and several agreements and resolutions.
The board voted unanimously to approve the minutes of the regular session of May 29, 2024, following a motion and second.
