Eau Claire County Board unanimously backs state funding for local public health; forwards resolution to WCA
Summary
The Eau Claire County Board adopted Resolution 26-27/020 supporting state funding for local public health departments and amended a separate resolution to request its consideration at the 2026 Wisconsin Counties Association annual business meeting; both measures passed unanimously.
The Eau Claire County Board of Supervisors on June 16 unanimously adopted Resolution 26-27/020, a formal statement supporting state funding for local public health departments.
The resolution was moved by Supervisor Brett Geboy and seconded by Supervisor Tami Schraufnagel; the board approved it via roll call vote. Separately, the board considered Resolution 26-27/003, which directs the submission of county resolutions to the 2026 Wisconsin Counties Association (WCA) annual business meeting. Supervisors David Hirsch and Ray French moved an amendment to add Resolution 26-27/020 to the list of items to be considered at the WCA meeting. The amendment was approved (motion by Schraufnagel, seconded by Nick Smiar), and the amended resolution was then adopted unanimously.
The actions send the county’s support for state-level funding for local public health programs to the WCA for consideration at its annual business meeting. No vote tallies beyond "unanimous" were recorded in the meeting minutes for these items.
