Board approves second reading of ordinance on adult dependent facilities, pauses third reading for further legal contact
Summary
The board approved the second reading of Ordinance 26-01 to create a Mills County ordinance chapter covering adult dependent facilities and decided to delay formal adoption until staff consults with Mike Galloway and completes follow-up work before a third reading.
The Mills County Board conducted and approved the second reading of Ordinance 26-01, which would create a chapter in the county code focused on adult dependent facilities.
The Chair said a state official who oversees aspects of Medicaid and Medicare raised questions and suggested the county contact Mike Galloway before the third reading. "She had some questions... so John, Greg, and I all decided it's probably best to get in contact with Mike Galloway before we did the third reading," the Chair said, and the board approved the second reading while tabling formal adoption until that follow-up occurs.
Committee member (S4) moved and the board seconded approval of the second reading; members answered "aye" on a voice vote. The board agreed to pause the third reading and schedule a follow-up after staff makes contact and addresses the state official's questions.
No substantive amendments were recorded at the second reading; the third reading and adoption were left for a subsequent meeting after consultation with legal and state oversight personnel.
