Commissioners approve payment of bills and schedule executive session pending Judge Smith's arrival
Summary
Brown County commissioners moved and seconded to approve bills as presented by the auditor; the chair declared the bills paid after members raised their hands. The board scheduled an executive session awaiting Judge Smith and set a follow-up meeting for the 11th to decide on the electric provider contract.
A member moved to approve the bills as presented by the auditor and another member seconded; the board voted by raised hands and the chair declared the bills paid. The transcript does not record names for the mover or seconder, nor does it give a numerical vote tally.
Later the board discussed an upcoming executive session and said they were waiting for Judge Smith to be available (estimated 9:30 to 9:45). Commissioners scheduled a separate meeting for the 11th to address the electric provider contract, noting that without a signed contract the county may be paying market rates and that a decision next week could secure a lower rate.
The chair said there would be no action taken following the executive session; the meeting recessed until Judge Smith could join. The transcript records routine procedural and scheduling matters but no substantive policy votes beyond approving routine bills.
