Board opens and closes public comment during Dec. 5 special meeting
Summary
During a Dec. 5 special session, Nobles County commissioners approved motions to open and then close public comment as part of a discussion on the 2026 budget process. The motions were moved by Commissioner Bob Paplow and recorded as passed.
At the Dec. 5 special session the Board formally opened the meeting for public comment and later voted to close public comment; both procedural motions were recorded as passed in the minutes.
The minutes record the motions as: "It was duly passed to approve opening the meeting for public comment." (moved by Bob Paplow; seconded by Robert S. Demuth) and later, "It was duly passed to approve closing the meeting for public comment." (moved by Bob Paplow; seconded by Chris Dybevick). The record does not include the content of any public comments or a tally breaking out individual votes.
