Commission approves amended parking-lease with First Presbyterian Church in Liberty
Summary
The Clay County Commission approved a five-year amendment to a parking lease with First Presbyterian Church of Liberty that provides county funding for parking-lot repairs and allows weekday employee parking; the packet cited about $16,000 in county contributions.
The Clay County Commission approved an amendment to a lease agreement with First Presbyterian Church of Liberty to continue weekday employee parking and provide county funding for parking-lot repairs under a new five-year term.
Administrator said the county has used church parking for employees during weekday work hours and that the amended agreement would provide funding for maintenance and allow the church to contract directly with a vendor (packet cites Mack and Associates). Commissioner Carpenter and others called the arrangement "an exceedingly fair and good deal" and thanked the church for its long-term cooperation.
During the discussion commissioners referenced a county cost amount cited in the packet (the transcript notes about $16,000 and characterized that roughly as $12.65 per day per employee). Steve Hawkins, representing the church, confirmed the church's cooperation and the county's role in maintenance and snow removal.
The motion to approve item 2026-172 passed during the roll call recorded in the meeting transcript; the record includes a line reading 'Motion passes 40' (see audit notes regarding an apparent discrepancy in the roll-call phrasing).
