Heidi E. Winter, Murray County Auditor-Treasurer, presented the proposed 2026 county budget and levy and the results of the county's 2025 Performance Measures Program at a special meeting of the Murray County Board of Commissioners on Nov. 25, 2025, at the Murray County Government Center in Slayton.
The meeting was convened under Minnesota Statutes section 275.065 to provide information to taxpayers about the budget and levy. Winter outlined the proposed budget, the proposed levy, and findings from the 2025 Performance Measures Program; the transcript of the meeting does not specify proposed dollar amounts, the levy rate, or line-item changes.
Present at the informational session were Commissioners Loy Woelber, Mark Carlson, Dennis Welgraven, Jackie Meier and Roger Zins; County Attorney Travis Smith; County Assessor Chad Benda; and Deputy County Administrator Sharon Giese. The meeting record notes eight Murray County taxpayers were present.
The minutes state that no board action was taken at the special meeting. The written record includes an attestation line reading "Sheron Giese, Murray County Auditor-Treasurer" that appears to conflict with the earlier listing of Heidi E. Winter as Auditor-Treasurer in the same record; the transcript does not clarify the discrepancy.
The meeting adjourned after the informational presentation. There were no recorded motions, seconds or votes on the budget or levy during this session.
