Summary
The Dawson County Board of Equalization unanimously approved minutes, an additional 1% increase to the budget base and Resolution #2013-30 (County Levy Authority) at its Aug. 30, 2013 meeting in Lexington. The meeting opened at 8:00 a.m. and adjourned at 8:10 a.m.
The Dawson County Board of Equalization met at 8:00 a.m. on Aug. 30, 2013, in the Commissioners Meeting Room at the County Courthouse in Lexington and unanimously approved three routine actions: the minutes from Aug. 1, an additional 1% increase to the budget base and Resolution #2013-30 concerning county levy authority. County Clerk Karla Zlatkovsky called the roll and confirmed Commissioners PJ Jacobson, Dennis Rickertsen, Bill Stewart, Butch Hagan and E. Dean Kugler were present. The clerk also noted that notice of the meeting had been published in the Lexington Clipper-Herald and that the Open Meetings Act poster was on display.
The first motion, to approve the minutes of the Aug. 1, 2013 regular meeting, was moved by Commissioner Bill Stewart and seconded by Commissioner Butch Hagan. The board voted unanimously in favor (Aye: Stewart, Hagan, Kugler, Rickertsen, Jacobson).
The second motion, moved by Commissioner E. Dean Kugler and seconded by Commissioner Dennis Rickertsen, approved an additional 1% increase to the budget base. The motion passed unanimously (Aye: Hagan, Rickertsen, Kugler, Stewart, Jacobson). The transcript records the percentage increase but does not specify dollar amounts or which budget lines, so financial details are not specified in this record.
The board then considered and adopted Resolution #2013-30, described in the minutes as the County Levy Authority. Commissioner Bill Stewart moved the resolution and Commissioner Butch Hagan seconded. The resolution passed by a unanimous vote (Aye: Kugler, Rickertsen, Hagan, Stewart, Jacobson).
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:10 a.m. County Clerk Karla Zlatkovsky certified that the subjects were included on the posted agenda, that proof of publication was on file, and that the minutes would be available for public inspection within ten working days.
