Dodge County approves noise ordinance edit, appoints community member to aging advisory committee and clears $751,770.78 in bills
Summary
At its July 21 meeting, the Dodge County Board approved a noise ordinance edit (adding 'calibrated' before 'decibel meter'), appointed John Battle to the HOGARC Aging Advisory Committee by acclamation, and approved accounts payable totaling $751,770.78.
The Dodge County Board of Commissioners on July 21 approved several routine but consequential items: a revised noise ordinance, an advisory‑committee appointment, and the accounts payable report.
Commissioner Leigh Ann Greene moved to approve the county’s noise ordinance with the edit to add the word "calibrated" before "decibel meter" in the ordinance’s measurement provision. Commissioner Sharon Cobb Flanagan seconded; the motion carried with all present voting in favor.
On appointments, Commissioner Flanagan nominated John Battle to serve on the HOGARC Aging Advisory Committee. With no other nominations, Commissioner Brian Watkins moved to close nominations; Commissioner Greene seconded and the board appointed John Battle by acclamation.
The board also approved the accounts payable report totaling $751,770.78 after a motion from Commissioner Watkins and a second from Commissioner Greene; minutes record unanimous approval.
During citizen concerns, Chuck Parkerson raised questions about increases in 2024 tax assessment values. In public comments later in the meeting, Adam Dixon and Tiffany Brantley discussed HB 581. The minutes do not record detailed responses to those comments.
The board recessed into executive session at 7:28 p.m. to discuss property matters and returned to open session at 8:24 p.m.; the meeting adjourned at 8:25 p.m.
