Summary
At its July 16 meeting in Carson the Grant County Weed Board approved payment of $71,042.57 in bills, reporting a pre-bill fund balance of $193,798.31; the largest invoice was $69,074 to Nutrien Solutions for chemical.
The Grant County Weed Board on July 16 approved payment of $71,042.57 in bills and accepted a treasurer's report showing a fund balance of $193,798.31 as of July 1, before the night's disbursements. The board voted to accept the report and pay bills after a motion by Walker Sabin and a second from Marty Meyer; the motion carried.
The itemized list presented by Weed Officer and Secretary Merlin Leithold included vendor charges for phone service, advertising, fuel, printing and a $69,074.00 invoice from Nutrien Solutions for chemical. Merlin also noted the board received $13,593.80 in income that evening. The board salaries paid that period included small disbursements for Dick Woodbury, Denis Tibor, Walker Sabin, Justin Vetter, Drew and Marty Meyer.
Board members did not provide a detailed line-item explanation for the Nutrien Solutions charge in the meeting minutes; the treasurer's figures and the motion to pay were recorded without further public discussion. Walker Sabin moved to accept the treasurer's report and pay the bills; Marty Meyer seconded and the motion carried.
The meeting also approved per diem, mileage and lodging coverage for Merlin Leithold to attend the Washburn symposium Aug. 20–23; the association will cover registration. Marty Meyer moved to pay per diem and Drew seconded; the motion carried. Merlin said the association has covered registration in prior years and that, two years ago, he attended only partial sessions because sprayers from South Dakota required field work that week.
Merlin told the board he will meet with the county commissioners on budget matters the following day at 11:00 a.m. The board set its next meeting for July 16, 2024, in Carson; the meeting adjourned at 9:00 p.m.
