Page County board votes not to levy Johnson Run drainage district for 2627
Summary
Supervisors voted to set the Johnson Run drainage district levy at zero for 2627 after staff reported a fund balance ($68,286.78) and recommended against levying; the motion was made, seconded and approved with separate actions by individual boards as advised by counsel.
County staff reported that the Johnson Run drainage district holds $68,286.78 and suggested that no levy would be necessary this year if the board would not pay a particular pending bill. The board discussed the research findings and agreed that, with the existing balance, levying for the district in 2627 could be avoided.
Supervisor Todd moved that the board not levy for Johnson Run for the year 2627; the motion was seconded and handled as separate motions for each board per the county attorney’s advice. Supervisors voted in favor and confirmed the levy would be set at zero for the year. The board also directed staff to update permanent documentation and clarify process steps with the drainage district and the city so responsibilities are clear in the future.
The board recorded no roll‑call vote totals in the transcript beyond affirmations of support. County staff said Peter (county attorney) will follow up with Rich (former drain supervisor) to confirm records and produce updated documentation for both boards and city counterparts.
