Wymore council approves minutes and multiple payroll claims; several individual checks approved with abstentions
Summary
At its May 1 meeting the Wymore City Council approved the prior meeting minutes, authorized general claims and payroll (excluding several checks), and approved four individual check motions that recorded single-member abstentions; vote tallies were reported as counts rather than by individual votes.
The Wymore City Council on May 1 approved its April minutes and several claims- and payroll-related motions, recording a mix of unanimous tallies and individual abstentions. The meeting opened at 7:03 p.m. and adjourned at 7:31 p.m.
Councilor Max Allen moved and Curt Oblinger seconded approval of the prior meeting minutes; the motion carried, recorded as 4–0. The council then approved claims and payroll broadly — excluding checks #28222, #28227, #28232 and #28251 — on a motion by Max Allen seconded by Sue Sapp; that motion was recorded as carried 4–0. The minutes do not list individual yes/no votes for the 4–0 tallies.
The council took separate votes on the excluded checks. Councilor Sue Sapp moved, seconded by Curt Oblinger, to approve check #28222; the motion carried 3–0 with Max Allen recorded as abstaining. Councilor Sue Sapp moved, seconded by Max Allen, to approve check #28227; the motion carried 3–0 with Neil Van Boening recorded as abstaining. Councilor Max Allen moved, seconded by Sue Sapp, to approve checks #28232 and #28251; the motion carried 3–0 with Curt Oblinger recorded as abstaining. The minutes report the tallies and which member abstained but do not attribute individual yes votes for the motions recorded as 3–0 or 4–0.
The council record shows Mayor Collin Meints and Clerk Janet Riensche present; City Attorney Andy Carothers was not in attendance but provided an email update on other agenda items. The meeting notice locations were recorded as the Wymore Post Office, Arbor State Pharmacy and the City Office.
The meeting minutes reflect formal action on these claims and checks; the minutes do not include roll-call lists tying each yes vote to a named council member for the motions recorded only by tally.
