Board approves long‑range plan, compensation resolution and several budget amendments
Summary
The Vernon County Board adopted the 2026–2028 long‑range plan, approved supervisor compensation for the next term, passed a WIC budget amendment and approved several routine resolutions including grants, the county forest work plan and a late general‑fund loan for solid waste repairs (amended).
The Vernon County Board voted on a slate of routine and substantive resolutions. On voice votes the board passed resolution 2025‑53 (county long‑range plan for 2026–2028), resolution 2025‑54 setting supervisor compensation for the term beginning April 21, 2026, resolution 2025‑55 to amend the WIC budget (raising the program budget from $171,004.85 by $6,719.20 to $178,205), resolution 2025‑56 authorizing a 2026 WDNR stewardship grant application, and resolution 2025‑57 adopting the county forest annual work plan for 2026.
A late arrival, resolution 2025‑58, requested a general‑fund loan for Solid Waste to cover a catastrophic compactor engine rebuild. The board voted to suspend the rules to consider the late resolution, debated repayment language and approved an amendment requiring the loan be repaid from future department revenues or funds generated during liquidation of assets. The amended resolution passed. Several items were referred for committee follow‑up where additional detail or contract language was requested.
