The Stephenson County Finance Committee opened its Feb. 13, 2026 session with a call to order and an invocation. The committee approved the meeting agenda and the Jan. 12, 2026 meeting minutes by voice vote.
The chair read claims summaries and the committee approved general claims as presented; an additional claims line for the zoning committee (Committee 10) of $1,764.66 was discussed and the transcript records the phrase 'Motion vacated' for that line — the outcome is unclear in the transcript and requires review of official minutes for confirmation.
Staff gave a number of administrative updates, including a new shredding service transition, an upcoming employee health‑screening schedule, and a ribbon cutting at Savencia. The committee received an audit update and was told auditors will return for follow‑up field work on April 27.
The meeting closed with routine chair remarks and a motion to adjourn that carried by voice vote.
