Daviess County commissioners approve highway vouchers, meet minutes and courthouse parking‑lot quote
Summary
The commission approved two LPA highway vouchers, accepted meeting minutes, authorized a courthouse parking‑lot contract and approved payroll claims; motions were typically moved by Commissioner Cook and seconded by Commissioner Gavart.
The Daviess County Board of Commissioners approved several routine items during the meeting, including two Local Public Agency (LPA) vouchers for preliminary engineering, the prior meeting minutes and a contractor estimate for the courthouse north‑side parking lot.
Highway department staff reported recent paving work and asked the board to approve two LPA vouchers: one for a countywide bridge inspection and another for preliminary engineering on an Old 50 roundabout. Commissioner Cook moved to pay the vouchers; Commissioner Gavart seconded and the motion passed.
The board approved the minutes from the April 28, 2026 meeting by motion and vote.
Scott presented a contractor estimate to redo and widen parking spaces along the north side of the courthouse and to move the sidewalk slightly closer to the building. The board approved Hard Rocks Concrete’s estimate by motion; the transcript shows the quoted monetary amount in garbled form in the meeting packet, so reporters should verify the exact contract figure with county finance staff before publication.
The commission also moved to approve payroll claims and to adjourn the meeting.
