Kent County board receives mobility task force report, extends Zoo Museum millage subcommittee term and praises administrator
Summary
The Kent County Board of Commissioners received and filed the mobility task force's final report recommending its work move to the Grand Valley Metro Council, extended the Zoo Museum Millage Subcommittee's term to the end of May, and reported a positive administrator evaluation for 'Al'.
Chair Green opened the meeting after closed session by announcing the board was "receiving and filing the final report of the mobility task force," which recommended that its work move to the Grand Valley Metro Council.
The chair also told commissioners there is a memo in the packet about item 13B and said the board is extending the Zoo Museum Millage Subcommittee's term. "We had by our own rule had that set to expire end of April. It will now expire end of May," Chair Green said.
On the administrator evaluation, Chair Green said the board conducted surveys with 21 participants and noted staff participation as well. "Excellent ... marks for Al's performance. It's doing a very good job leading our county and our 2,000 employees," the chair said, calling follow-up conversations "very good" and praising Al's openness to the process.
The announcements were procedural: Chair Green said the mobility task force report was received and filed and that the subcommittee extension is reflected in the meeting packet memo. No formal roll-call votes or motions related to these items are recorded in the transcript.
What happens next: Chair Green said the Grand Valley Metro Council will take up the mobility work, and the Zoo Museum Millage Subcommittee's extended term runs to the end of May as noted in the packet. The administrator evaluation will remain part of the board's personnel record and follow-up items were discussed internally.
