Kalkaska board adopts 2026 by‑laws with wording change to align with MCL 46‑412
Summary
The Board adopted Policy #145 (By‑laws for 2026) after agreeing to a wording correction in Article II, Section C to accommodate MCL 46‑412; the motion passed unanimously by roll call.
The Kalkaska County Board of Commissioners reviewed and adopted its 2026 by‑laws (Policy #145) during the Jan. 2 organizational meeting, approving a correction to Article II, Section C to accommodate MCL 46‑412.
Chair Fisher called for review of the draft and discussion identified the need to adjust verbiage in Article II, Section C to align the by‑laws with the cited Michigan statute. Commissioner David Comai moved to adopt the by‑laws with that correction; the motion passed by roll call with Comai, Baldwin, Bicum, Matley, Persons, Sieting and Fisher recorded as yes (7 yeas, 0 nays).
The minutes record the specific statutory citation — MCL 46‑412 — as the reason for the amendment to the by‑laws' language. The board did not record further legal analysis in the minutes; implementation and any additional legal review will follow through regular staff channels.
