Summary

The solid-waste board approved claims totaling $140,424.87 and voted to forward a reduced 2027 budget (5% increase) to County Council for consideration; member Sarah abstained under the board's electronic-meeting participation resolution.

The board approved claims and moved to forward its draft 2027 budget to the County Council on the motion taken during the meeting.

A staff member told the board that $700,000 had been transferred from Lynnville National to Boonville Federal in the operating balance to cover a bond payment and a recently purchased baler, and that the current claims total was $140,424.87. A board motion to approve the claims was made, seconded and the chair announced the motion carried unanimously.

The staff member reported a May month-end balance of $3,430,252.55 and said the draft 2027 budget had been trimmed from an earlier 6.85% figure to a 5% increase after adjustments. The board moved to approve forwarding the budget so it could be placed before Crystal and then taken to County Council; the motion was seconded and carried, with Sarah abstaining "based upon the electronic meeting participation resolution," the board recorded.

The meeting minutes show no roll-call names associated with the claims vote; the chair summarized the result as unanimous. The budget action will proceed to the County Council for its review and any further action.
