Board approves appointments to local drainage districts
The board approved two appointments to local levy/drainage districts.

The Chair read a resolution appointing Joe Snyder to a drainage-district commissioner post (meeting text referenced "Red Creek Levy in Drainage District"). "Joe Snyder is appointed as as a commissioner" was read into the record, a motion was offered and seconded, and members approved the resolution by voice vote.

The board also approved a resolution appointing Kent Therese to the Preston levy district. The Chair read: "Kent Therese is appointed to commissioner of the Preston Levy District for a term beginning the September '26 and expiring on the September '29." A motion was seconded and approved by voice vote.

The meeting record contains slightly inconsistent naming (the transcript references "Red Creek" and, later, "Clear Creek"); the board did not provide further detail at the meeting. Staff will supply the official district names and confirm the exact term start and end dates in the minutes and the appointment paperwork.
