Board approves $1 transfer for animal shelter property and authorizes signers
Summary
Commissioners authorized purchase of property for an animal control shelter at a cost not to exceed $1 and designated the county chairman or county administrator as authorized signers; members described the transfer as a cooperative intergovernmental arrangement with the city.
The Sanilac County Board of Commissioners approved the purchase of property at 65 South Campbell Road in Sebewaing for the county's animal control shelter, authorizing the county chairman and/or county administrator to sign documents for a purchase "at a cost not to exceed $1."
A commissioner explained the $1 transaction was an intergovernmental accommodation: the city of Sandusky offered the property to the county for $1 so the city could regain its former animal-shelter site. The board approved the motion by voice vote and described the transfer as a positive example of intergovernmental cooperation.
County staff and commissioners encouraged members of the public to tour the new Animal Control building as construction nears completion.
