Renville County agrees to pay half of $18,972.38 levee inspection fee with Water Resource Board
Summary
After the Renville County Water Resource Board said paying the full levee inspection fee would severely deplete its funds, commissioners voted to split the $18,972.38 bill with the Water Resource Board, with each paying half.
Peter Gates, a member of the Renville County Water Resource Board, reported to the commissioners that the Souris River Joint Board billed $18,972.38 for levee inspection fees. Gates told the board the Water Board has funds but that paying the full amount would severely deplete its available funds.
At the Oct. 15 meeting, the board voted to have the county pay half of the fee and the Water Resource Board pay the remaining half. The motion carried by unanimous vote. The minutes record that Peter Gates had discussed the billing with Dan Steinberger, who said he would look into the billing and report back; the Oct. 15 action resolved immediate payment but notes Dan Steinberger would follow up on billing details.
The minutes do not specify payment timing or accounting entries; the board's action authorized the split payment to cover the inspection fee.
