Grant County Quorum Court approves minutes and financials, hears updates on road, armory and library
Summary
At a May 19, 2025 meeting, the Grant County Quorum Court approved April minutes and its financial statement by 8-0 votes, and received updates on a 10-mile road chip-seal, progress at the Armory building, upcoming library planning, and lightning-related impacts to two local water companies.
Grant County Judge Randy Pruitt called the Quorum Court to order on May 19, 2025, at the Grant County Courthouse. Eight justices were present. Justice Mike Nevens moved to approve the April 21, 2025 minutes and Justice Mark Allen seconded; the court voted 8 for, 0 against and the motion passed. The court then accepted the financial statement on a motion by Justice Mike Nevens, seconded by Justice Jason Roshto; that motion also passed 8 for, 0 against.
The court received several administrative and operational updates. Judge Randy Pruitt reported an upcoming road project covering a ten (10) mile stretch and said crews expect to return in about six (6) weeks to perform chip seal work. Brad McGinley reported that work has begun on the Armory Building and that county staff expect to move into the facility within sixty (60) to ninety (90) days.
Judge Pruitt also said an architect is working on a library project and that the library will need to begin assuming expenses for the building; he noted a library meeting was scheduled for the following day. The judge reported that a lightning strike had affected Little Creek and South Sheridan water companies; the minutes record the impact but do not detail operational status or response actions.
A sales tax report was submitted to the court; the minutes record no discussion of its contents. The minutes end with a recorded motion to adjourn; the document does not record a mover, seconder, or vote for that motion. The minutes are signed/recorded with a line that reads, verbatim, "Geral D. Harrison Jr., County and Randy Circuit Clerk Pruit Randy Pruitt, County Judge Date: 4/16/28," a formatting and date string that appears inconsistent with the meeting header. The clerk is identified in the minutes as Geral D. Harrison Jr., County and Circuit Clerk.
The court recorded roll call attendance of Justices Mark Allen, Tony Carder, Marylin Demoss, Paul Drake, Jimmy Easley, Mike Nevens, Jason Roshto and Scott Wells. No ordinances, resolutions, contracts, or public-comment controversies are recorded in these minutes, and no vote on other business items is shown beyond the two approvals noted above. The minutes indicate routine administrative follow-up: chip-seal scheduling, Armory occupancy timelines, and library planning; the record does not supply budgets, funding sources, or detailed mitigation steps for the water-company impacts.
