5

RESOLUTION #2014-17

WHEREAS, Burt County needs to close a fund already in the Treasurer’s and County Clerk’s records as well as in the County budget document.

WHEREAS Burt County no longer has a need to have a separate account for the CDBG Project Fund because all of the funds for this project have been spent and the fund now has a zero balance, and there is no expectation of any further revenue coming into it.

NOW BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the Burt County Board of Supervisors that the Treasurer close the CDBG Project Fund, and said fund will be removed from the budget process.

DATED this 30th day of July, 2014, at Tekamah, Nebraska.

SUPERVISORS

Board Member Newill seconded the motion, and the Chairman declared it adopted, with roll call vote as follows: Ayes – Newill, Schold, Rogers, Connealy and Brummond. Nays – none.

Chairman Morrow signed a lot split application for Randall Moeller located in the West 1⁄2 of the NW 1⁄4 of Section 4, Township 23 North, Range 8 East of the 6th P.M., Burt County, Nebraska.

Highway Superintendent Smith talked to the Board about grading and paving 0.293 miles of County Road V. They are presently working on County Road O. Connealy moved to proceed under the current bid and do the work on County Road V. Brummond seconded the motion, with roll call vote as follows: Ayes – Newill, Schold, Rogers, Connealy and Brummond. Nays – none.

Highway Superintendent Peggy Smith presented the following two bids for a new pickup for the Road Department:

Gene Steffy $27,026.00 Woodhouse $30,646.00

Upon motion by Connealy, seconded by Schold, the Board accepted the low bid from Gene Steffy in the amount of $27,026.00, with roll call vote as follows: Ayes – Newill, Schold, Rogers, Connealy and Brummond. Nays – none.

Scott Olson came before the Board to make them aware of what the Corps of Engineers is doing on the river and the resulting lateral flooding.

Gina Uhing visited the Board to talk about a new interlocal agreement between Burt County and the Elkhorn Logan Valley Public Health Department regarding terms of service. She also informed the Board that they are looking into opening a satellite office in Burt County and employing someone from Burt County.

Fred Mytty met with the Board to discuss the 2014-2015 budget. The Board decided to finance $300,000.00 of the purchase of new trucks, only allowing for $100,000.00 in the new budget. They also decided to take $300,000.00 from the Inheritance Fund in an effort to keep taxes at the same level and avoid any increases. Mytty will get new figures reflecting these changes to the Board at their August 28 meeting. The date for the final hearing of the budget was set for September 9, 2014, at their regular meeting.

After reading the two agreements with Applied Connective Technologies, County Attorney Dan Smith advised the Board not to sign them as written. He will contact the service provider to alter or remove a paragraph in both agreements.

Since Applied Connective Technologies will become the County’s new technology service provider on August 1, Connealy moved to authorize Chairman Morrow to sign the new agreements as soon as the clause is removed or fixed and Dan is satisfied. Brummond seconded the motion, with roll call vote as follows: Ayes – Newill, Schold, Rogers, Connealy and Brummond. Nays – none.

The Board reviewed a list of the offices in the Courthouse who have cell phones billed to the County and require them for their jobs. They also discussed the employees who use their own personal cell phones when needed for county business. The issue will be put on the August 12 agenda to determine a policy.

Motion was made by Schold, seconded by Newill, to accept the 2014 inventories, with roll call vote as follows: Ayes – Newill, Schold, Rogers, Connealy and Brummond. Nays – none.

At 12:25 P.M. Chairman Morrow declared the Board of Equalization in session. County Assessor Joni Renshaw read the following tax list correction:

Barry G. Madsen $43.50 tax accelerated (mobile home being moved)

At 12:27 P.M. the Board went back into regular session. Upon motion by Rogers, seconded by Brummond, the tax list correction was approved, with roll call vote as follows: Newill, Schold, Rogers, Connealy and Brummond. Nays – none.

There being no further business to come before the Board at this time, the Board adjourned at 12:27 P.M. until 9:00 A.M. August 12, 2014.
