At its May 26 meeting the Cedar County Board of Supervisors approved a slate of routine administrative and financial items, including claim disbursements, vendor agreements, and an authorization for access to Iowa DOT motor vehicle records.
The board approved Claim Disbursements #445679–445787 (motion by Supervisor Bixler, seconded by Supervisor Barnhart). The Auditor noted a handwritten disbursement (#144874) to the Cedar County Treasurer for Benefits, Inc. for $2,043.43 covering self‑funded medical claims.
