The Stearns County Board of Commissioners met Feb. 17 to conduct routine business, approve several consent items (including opioid-settlement projects), set a public hearing on whether to keep the county a shotgun-only deer zone, advance a large jail/justice center financing and contract package, and approve a Medicaid reentry (11/15) planning grant. Multiple formal votes occurred, including a 3-1 roll call on the pay-equity compliance report.
