Nobles County approves mutual aid agreement with Pipestone County for highway accounting support
Summary
The board approved a mutual aid agreement with Pipestone County to provide interim cost-accounting support while Nobles County hires a new Cost Accountant; Pipestone uses compatible accounting software, easing assistance.
Nobles County commissioners voted March 24 to approve a mutual aid agreement with Pipestone County to provide interim assistance from an experienced cost accountant while Nobles County recruits a new permanent hire. County staff told the board that Pipestone County currently has capacity and uses the same highway accounting software, which is important for continuity and training.
Commissioner Justin Ahlers moved to approve the mutual aid agreement; Commissioner Gene Metz seconded the motion and it was recorded as passed. The agreement is intended to bridge staffing gaps and support training for the incoming cost accountant; financial terms and the duration of assistance were not detailed in the public meeting record.
The county will proceed with the mutual-aid arrangement under standard intergovernmental agreement procedures.
