Public commenters press for more detailed budgets and call for Commissioner Moreno's removal from committees
Summary
During public comment at the Aug. 19 Isabella County commissioners meeting, residents asked for clearer budget presentations and one commenter presented a photo and requested Commissioner James Moreno be removed from several committee assignments; the board took no immediate action on those requests.
Several residents used the public comment periods at the Aug. 19 Isabella County Board of Commissioners meeting to press for greater budget detail and to call for changes in committee assignments.
Aaron Pestel addressed millage matters and later sought clarification that the board's approvals included funds for a play area, locker area and laundry area. Bree Moeggenberg said she had sent emails that went unanswered and asked for more detailed budget presentations. During the second public comment period Moeggenberg provided a photo showing Commissioner James Moreno at a protest holding a sign and asked that Moreno be removed from several committee assignments; the minutes record the request but show no board action or response to remove him. Brandy Burns thanked the board for approving direct deposit.
The minutes do not record any formal response from the board or any motion to act on the request to remove Commissioner Moreno from committees. The board proceeded to routine announcements and adjourned at 6:00 p.m.
