The Poweshiek County Board of Supervisors on July 16 approved Resolution #2027-2 adopting an amended Chapter 28E intergovernmental agreement between Poweshiek County and the Central Iowa Juvenile Detention Center (CIJDC).
The resolution, as approved by the board, authorizes the county's appointed CIJDC representative to execute the amended agreement on behalf of Poweshiek County and directs CIJDC to file the fully executed document with the Iowa Secretary of State as required by Iowa Code Section 28E.8. The resolution text references the original agreement filing number M505282, recorded June 27, 2012.
Why it matters: Chapter 28E agreements set terms for intergovernmental cooperation between local governments and service providers; updating such an agreement can change responsibilities, cost-sharing, or administrative procedures for participating counties and the detention center.
What happened at the meeting: Supervisor Jeff Tindle moved to approve Resolution #2027-2 and Supervisor Jacki Bolen seconded. The meeting minutes record the motion as carrying with "3 ayes." The resolution text included in the meeting packet contains a roll-call-style passage that lists Supervisor Bolen as "Aye," Supervisor Jason Roudabush as "Aye," and Supervisor Tindle as "Absent." The minutes and the resolution text therefore present inconsistent vote records; the board minutes record three ayes while the resolution text's roll call lists Tindle absent. The minutes were attested by County Auditor Melissa Eilander.
The resolution directs the county's CIJDC representative to execute the amended intergovernmental agreement; the resolution does not name that representative in the transcript. The amended agreement itself is on file with the county auditor, according to the board's statement.
Next steps: The resolution requires CIJDC to file the fully executed amended agreement with the Iowa Secretary of State after all parties sign it. The meeting adjourned at 9:03 a.m.
