Boswell council unanimously accepts Benton County mitigation plan resolution
Summary
The Boswell Town Council voted to adopt Resolution 2025-0114 after a presentation from Benton County Emergency Services on the county mitigation plan, which the presenter said would help qualify the county for catastrophe grant funding.
Jason Fisher of Benton County Emergency Services presented the Benton County Mitigation Plan to the Boswell Town Council on Jan. 14, saying the plan would help the county qualify for grants after catastrophes.
After the presentation, Councilman Jake Foster moved to accept Resolution 2025-0114; Council President Mike Brody seconded. The minutes record the motion as accepted "with all in favor." The minutes do not include a roll-call vote or a numeric tally; all three council members listed as present are recorded elsewhere in the minutes (Jake Foster, Kylee Senesac and Mike Brody).
The resolution adoption was recorded as a formal action in the meeting minutes; the minutes do not list implementation steps or an effective date for local application. The presenter framed the plan as a county-level document that would make the county eligible for post-disaster grant programs.
The council also approved routine items during the meeting, including prior meeting minutes and accounts payable, and set the next regular meeting for Feb. 11, 2025.
