Summary

Nick Gilman recommended postponing consideration of participation in a WDNR municipal dam grant because final numbers were not available; the board voted to postpone the resolution until the October meeting.

The Vernon County Board on Sept. 18 postponed consideration of Resolution 2025-52, which would commit the county to participate in the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) municipal dam grant program, because staff did not have final cost numbers. Presenter Nick Gilman asked the board to delay action until the October meeting so the figures can be finalized.

Gilman told the board, "The final numbers are not available, and I am recommending the resolution be postponed and brought back to the Board next month." A motion by Supervisor Lawler, seconded by Supervisor Slack, to postpone the resolution was adopted by voice vote. The postponement leaves open county participation pending receipt of final budget and grant-match details.

The board did not adopt a substantive grant commitment at the Sept. 18 meeting; staff will return with completed numbers and recommendations in October.
