The Union County Board of Commissioners approved payroll and a broad set of claims during its Aug. 20 meeting.
A motion by Tom Kimmel, second by Michael Dailey, carried to approve claims and draw warrants. The minutes list payroll (BW Payroll 8/23/2024) at $90,254.74 and include numerous departmental claims. Notable items listed in the approved claims register include Knife River Midwest ($183,572.12) for hot mix, Ulteig Engineers ($76,604.50) for engineering fees, and DPAA (insurance) at $161,328.88. Other department and vendor claims were recorded for public safety, maintenance, utilities and professional services.
Why it matters: Approving these warrants releases funds for county operations including highway work, engineering services and county insurance obligations. The board recorded the approvals as carried; the register contains detailed vendor entries that county staff will process for payment.
