Votes at a glance: consent agenda, destruction of 2016 election materials, township appointment, administrator contract amendment

At its Dec. 26 meeting the Reno County Commission took several formal actions: it approved the consent agenda (with one item removed) and disclosed vouchers totaling $388,851.62; authorized the county clerk’s office to destroy election materials from the 2016 presidential election with two electors listed as witnesses; appointed Greg Hoskinson as Reno Township clerk; and approved amendments to the professional services contract for county administrator Gary Meager that match a 3% salary increase and a 3% deferred-compensation increase effective Jan. 1, 2019.

Chair (S1) announced the voucher total and commissioners moved and seconded approval of the consent agenda, which was carried on roll call. The commission also approved the county clerk's request to destroy 2016 election materials; electors Brooke Cone Caine and Alicia Johnson were named as witnesses in the agenda item.

Commissioner (S7) moved to appoint Greg Hoskinson as Reno Township clerk over competing applicant Jane Gamber; the motion was seconded and passed by roll call. On the administrator contract, staff said the proposed contract mirrors the 3% increases other county employees received; commissioners discussed the administrator's broad responsibilities overseeing many departments before approving the contract amendment on roll call.

The transcript records affirmative roll-call responses at each vote but does not contain a clear, complete, named tally for every member in machine-readable form. No formal amendments to any of these actions were recorded in the meeting transcript.
