Dickinson County board approves $1.27 million in checks, ARPA payment to Norway and $20,000 health payment
Summary
The Dickinson County Board of Commissioners on July 22 approved a $1,271,484.71 check register, authorized a $60,566 ARPA payment to the City of Norway for water controls, and approved a $20,000 payment to the Medical Care Access Coalition; all motions passed unanimously.
The Dickinson County Board of Commissioners approved several finance motions during its July 22 meeting, including a $1,271,484.71 check register, an ARPA-funded payment for water controls in the City of Norway and a $20,000 payment to the Medical Care Access Coalition.
Vice Chair Barbara Kramer moved to approve the check register covering July 6–18, 2024; Commissioner Joe Stevens seconded the motion, which passed on a roll-call vote with all five commissioners voting yes. Kramer also moved to pay the county’s annual Michigan Association of Counties dues of $6,723.84; that motion was seconded by Stevens and approved unanimously.
The board approved an ARPA-funded payment of $60,566 to the City of Norway for water system controls replacement after a motion by Kramer and a second from Commissioner John Degenaer. The board separately approved a $20,000 payment from fund 279-000700.221 to the Medical Care Access Coalition (MCAC) on a motion by Kramer, seconded by Commissioner Ann Martin; that motion also passed unanimously.
County leaders did not identify any roll-call dissent; meeting minutes record each motion as carried with “All Ayes.” The Finance Committee chair, Kramer, led the finance agenda and the board placed the approved items on file. The board’s routine approvals clear payments and membership dues and allocate ARPA funds for the Norway water-controls project.
Actions at the meeting were procedural approvals of payments and dues; no additional conditions or amendments were recorded. The board indicated further discussion of opioid-settlement spending will take place at an upcoming Finance Committee meeting.
