Commissioners approve several legal bills, including $20,535 for Jackson Murdo
Summary
The Lincoln County Board approved three legal/payable claims presented at the meeting: $20,535 for Jackson Murdo (selenium matter), $7,514 for Garlington, Lohn & Robinson (planning/lakeshore work), and a Freyer Associates bill related to land acquisition (amount transcribed in the packet as '6,70.50').
Lincoln County commissioners moved to approve three payable legal claims presented in the meeting packet.
The board approved payment of $20,535 to the law firm Jackson Murdo for work tied to a selenium issue; the packet shows the total aggregated from invoices dating back to June and October and included a spreadsheet and attached billing. A motion to pay the Jackson Murdo bill passed by voice vote; one commissioner recorded an opposed voice.
The board also approved a $7,514 claim from Garlington, Lohn & Robinson for planning and lakeshore work; one commissioner said the invoice arrived after packet printing and asked colleagues to review the back-up materials before final payment processing.
A third legal bill, from Freyer Associates, was presented for land-acquisition work tied to projects including a shooting range, Troy airport and a community center. The amount in the meeting packet as read into the record appears in the transcript as “6,70.50”; the board moved to approve payment as presented and took a voice vote.
The motions were carried by voice votes with no recorded public comment on the claims. Staff will process payments according to county finance procedures.
Notes on amounts: $20,535 and $7,514 are recorded in the meeting packet as cited; the Freyer Associates figure was transcribed inconsistently in the spoken record and should be verified against the written invoice for exact payment amount.
