Pipestone County approves consent agenda, several purchases and a veterans service reappointment
Summary
On April 28 the board approved the consent agenda including warrants and treasurer reports, approved an IT license purchase and office workstation request, and reappointed Veterans Service Officer Renae Schuch to a four‑year term.
The Pipestone County Board approved its consent agenda on April 28, which included approval of the April 14, 2026 minutes, auditor warrants for 4/17/26 and 4/24/26, commissioners warrants totaling $107,965.18, hospital warrants totaling $163,176.51, and the February and March 2026 treasurer reports.
Per Minnesota Statute 375.12 the minutes list warrants and vendors, including payments to the Regents of the University of Minnesota ($36,350.00), Dragstra Auto Body ($12,319.20), National Insurance Services ($11,050.28), Pipestone County Highway Department ($9,350.21), Just FOIA, Inc.

Separately, the board approved an IT licensing upgrade requested by Information Technology Director Bill Folger to remain in compliance with the county's Microsoft Select Agreement. Director Folger recommended purchasing the license through state contract pricing from SHI for $11,160.40; the board approved the purchase by motion (Wildermuth/Nagel).
The board also approved a request from County Assessor Jean Nelson to purchase four new stand‑up work stations for office staff from Business Essentials on the State of Minnesota purchasing contract. The minutes record approval but include a numeric value in the transcription that appears garbled; the county clerk's office should be consulted for the precise dollar figure.
Finally, County Administrator Steve Ewing presented a request to reappoint Veterans Service Officer Renae Schuch for a four‑year term through April 17, 2030; the board approved the reappointment by motion (Wildermuth/Nagel).
