Mills County supervisors approve several administrative purchases and a tax-payment correction resolution
Summary
The board approved a resolution correcting an erroneous tax payment (resolution 26-26), purchased a new copier ($4,300) and a Cisco-compatible in-ceiling microphone system ($5,176.04) for the boardroom, and authorized an Amazon government account with a $20,000 credit limit monitored by the auditor.
The Mills County Board of Supervisors approved a series of administrative items on July 8, including a resolution to correct an erroneous tax payment and multiple equipment and procurement actions.
Treasurer Melissa Loggarty requested authority to correct a tax payment that had been posted to the wrong parcel after an online payment error. The taxpayer had paid $1,376 against a parcel for which the correct amount was $995; the payment had been applied to a different parcel that later went to tax sale. Loggarty said she had consulted the county attorney and requested the board's permission to cancel the tax-sale certificate and correct the payment. The board moved and approved resolution 26-26 to cancel the partial tax sale and proceed with correction; the transcript shows the board approved the action.
The board approved purchasing a replacement office copier from VisualEdge IT for $4,300 (purchase option) with an associated maintenance arrangement discussed in alternatives. The motion to purchase carried by voice vote.
IT staff discussed options to improve in-room and remote audio. The board approved purchasing an in-ceiling Cisco-compatible microphone system for the boardroom at $5,176.04 to improve recordings and in-room audibility; installation can be performed by county staff.
Staff also explained that an Amazon government account with invoicing would simplify department purchases and carry a $20,000 credit/invoice limit; the board approved setting the $20,000 limit with oversight by the auditor's office.
All three procurement and administrative items were approved by motions recorded in the meeting; the transcript records affirmative votes for each motion.
