Board finalizes disorganization of Washington Township, attaches territory to neighboring township
Summary
The Saline County Board adopted resolution 26-24-50 to finalize the disorganization of Washington Township and attach its territory to an adjacent township. County staff said the required petition was not filed and the process followed prior public notice and a May 19 hearing; the vote was 4-0.
The Saline County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to adopt resolution 26-24-50, finalizing the disorganization of Washington Township and attaching its territory to a neighboring township.
County staff told the board that on April 7 the commission adopted resolution 26-24-48 calling for the township's disorganization, that the resolution was published on April 12 and April 19, and that a May 19 public hearing was held. Staff reported the county clerk confirmed no petition signed by a majority of Washington Township electors was filed within 30 days after the final publication.
Given that process, staff requested the board adopt resolution 26-24-50 to finalize the disorganization and make the territorial attachment. A commissioner moved for adoption; the motion passed 4-0.
The action finalizes the administrative attachment as described in the resolution; staff offered to answer questions but no substantive public comment or opposition was recorded at the meeting.
