Board tables proposal to use SAHA funds for homeless shelter after brief exchange
Summary
Following an update on the Minnesota City School property, the Winona County Board on March 10 heard a motion to apply $15,000 from 2025 SAHA funds toward the county's 2026 homeless shelter contribution; the motion was withdrawn, and the discussion was tabled until March 24, 2026.
Auditor-Treasurer Chelsi Wilbright updated the Winona County Board on the Minnesota City School property during the March 10 meeting. After the update, Commissioner Dwayne Voegeli moved, and Commissioner Chris M. Meyer seconded, a proposal to use $15,000 from 2025 SAHA funds to increase the county’s 2026 contribution to a homeless shelter; Commissioner Voegeli subsequently withdrew that motion and then moved to table the discussion. The board voted to table the item until the March 24, 2026 County Board meeting (Yes–4).
The transcript records the proposed dollar figure ($15,000) and the procedural outcome (motion withdrawn; tabling motion approved) but does not include further discussion of the substance of the funding proposal in this segment. The tabling decision means a future meeting agenda will revisit the potential SAHA contribution on March 24, 2026.
