Des Moines County supervisors on March 17 approved routine financial and personnel business and announced a countywide rural cleanup program.
The board approved accounts payable claims totaling $671,335.95 (checks of $580,515.21 and wire/transfer payments of $90,820.74) after a motion, second and voice/roll-call approval. Payroll reimbursement claims of $461.91 were also approved.

Rural cleanup announcement
Supervisors announced and approved the Des Moines County–sponsored countywide rural cleanup to run Monday, April 6 through Saturday, June 6, or until county credits are depleted. The recycling center will accept refrigerators, freezers, washers, dryers, air conditioners and stoves; accepted items also include metal fencing, bed springs, mattresses and household items not suitable for donation. Proof of residence is required to participate.
Roll-call and votes
Board minutes show motions were moved, seconded and approved during the meeting; the transcript records the board moving and approving the listed items but does not provide a detailed signed roll-call tally for each item in the public transcript. Where specific votes were read aloud, the board signaled approval and the chair declared motions approved.
What’s next: administrative follow-up
Staff will process payroll and claims per normal procedure and the county will publish details and requirements for the rural cleanup, including accepted items, required proof of residency and recycling-center instructions.
