Chickasaw County supervisors approve routine agenda items, minor subdivision and two resolutions

The Chickasaw County Board of Supervisors on Jan. 12 approved routine business and several formal actions, including a minor subdivision and the acceptance of a donation to the conservation department.

The board voted to adopt Resolution 1122604, a minor subdivision for Kirkenbach that consolidates farmstead buildings onto a single parcel and transfers crop ground to the adjacent parcel. The motion passed on roll call with five ayes and no dissenters (motion recorded and resolution adopted 5–0).

The board also approved a motion to accept a gift from Deborah (Resolution 0112-26-03), accepting $8,000 for conservation-related uses; the resolution passed on a roll-call vote with all members voting aye. The conservation director said the funds would be held in an appropriate reserve account for the department’s land-acquisition/capital projects.

Fiscal items approved included the treasurer’s semi‑annual report for the period ending Dec. 31, 2025; routine payroll claims dated Jan. 9, 2026 (motion by Scott); and claims totaling $282,184.25 (motion recorded, voice votes carried). The board also approved quarterly departmental reports for sheriff, EMS, recorder, veteran services and auditor for the quarter ending 12/31/2025.

Several items related to the FY26–27 budget were postponed until the full five‑member board could be present. The board set department head and safety meeting dates for 2026 (second Monday at the quarter end: March 9, June 8, Sept. 14 and Dec. 14).

The meeting adjourned at 11:22 a.m.
