Votes and key actions taken at the Feb. 9 Alger County board meeting
Summary
Board approved a procedural waiver and a purchase of an airboat, reviewed CDBG funding options and deferred final decisions on 911 CAD and courthouse renovation pending further staff work.
At its Feb. 9 meeting the Alger County Board of Commissioners took the following formal actions and directions:
• Procedural waiver: The board voted to waive or bypass a formal policy to allow immediate consideration of the airboat purchase (motion passed by voice vote). • Airboat purchase: The board approved moving forward with a purchase of an airboat from Thousand Island Airboats; roll-call votes recorded "yes" votes by those present. • Direction to staff: Staff was directed to finalize procurement steps, schedule a March demonstration of the airboat, and return with detailed breakdowns for CDBG reallocation and courthouse RFP options. • Deferred/held items: No change was made to the county 911 CAD vendor at this meeting; staff will continue procurement review. The courthouse office reassignment will include the prosecutor's requested options in the RFP so costs can be compared.
Where votes were recorded, the clerk read roll-call names on record; board members asked staff for additional financial detail before authorizing any larger fund reallocations.
