Summary

The Bourbon County Commission approved an edited agenda, tax corrections, accounts payable, authorization to list surplus items on GovDeals, appointed a Homeland Security board replacement and authorized an EMS signature; the board tabled the mill-levy notification vote for a full commission review.

At the July meeting the Bourbon County Commission recorded these formal actions and outcomes.

- Agenda approval: The commission approved an edited agenda that moved the budget presentation upward and added auction discussion under old business (motion and voice vote).

- Tax corrections: A motion to approve tax corrections passed by voice vote.

- Accounts payable: The commission approved the accounts-payable item as read during the meeting (chair read amount in the packet aloud; the board approved by voice vote).

- Auction listing authorization: Commissioners authorized Commissioner Allen to list surplus county property on GovDeals and to organize saleable items into lots; the motion carried.

- Appointment to Homeland Security board: The commission approved the sheriff's request to appoint 'Lou' as the sheriff's replacement on the Homeland Security board; the motion passed by voice vote.

- EMS signature authorization: The board authorized the chair to sign a Kansas Division of Emergency Management document stating the county expends less than $1,000,000 in federally awarded funds annually and is not subject to a single-program audit; the chair signed the document immediately after the vote.

Where the meeting recorded only a voice vote, the chair announced approval and no roll-call tallies were read aloud. A formal, final decision on whether to notify the county clerk under the revenue-neutral/mill-levy process was tabled until the next meeting so absent commissioners can review additional budget detail.
