Buffalo County board approves routine motions, contracts and tax measures in March 29 meeting
Summary
A roundup of motions passed March 29: approval of minutes and payroll, vendor claims, interlocal detention agreement, InTech/Modus election software contract, Resolution 2024-09 directing tax sale certificates, tax refund approval, several administrative authorizations, and setting an April 23 bid date.
The Buffalo County Board of Commissioners took several routine but consequential actions during its March 29 meeting, approving minutes and payroll, ratifying vendor claims and authorizing administrative contracts and appointments.
Key actions included approval of the March 12, 2024 minutes and ratification of March 22 payroll claims; authorization for the Register of Deeds to release dormant copy accounts to the General Fund; appointment of Joseph H. Cipov to the Advisory Board of the Park and Recreation Commission; and authorization for Chairperson Klein to sign a Holiday Inn contract for the county employee holiday party.
The board approved an interlocal Lancaster County Juvenile Detention services agreement and authorized signature on an InTech Software Solutions ("Modus") election software agreement following discussion with Election Commissioner Lisa Poff. The board adopted Resolution 2024-09 directing the County Treasurer to issue Tax Sale Certificates in the county’s name for delinquent taxes under Nebraska Revised Statutes Sec. 77-1809 and 77-1918, and approved a tax refund for parcel 310002037 (Tillotson Enterprises).
Facilities staff opened bids for several projects and the board set a bid date of April 23, 2024, for the Courthouse Addition and Extension Building Addition; Commissioner Maendele was recorded as absent for that vote. Most motions passed by unanimous roll-call 'Aye' where votes were recorded; the meeting contained a small number of abstentions on specific items.
