Supervisors report about $25,000 spent on CO2 pipeline litigation; will await ISAC convention

During the Aug. 11 meeting the supervisors discussed legal expenses related to the proposed CO2 pipeline and noted that "the county has spent just over $25,000" on litigation so far. After brief discussion the Board agreed to hold off on further action until after the Iowa State Association of Counties (ISAC) convention next week to see whether additional guidance or information becomes available.

The minutes do not record additional detail about specific bills or invoices; the discussion was recorded as direction to await possible new information from ISAC before spending more or changing the county's approach.
