Board of Supervisors - Open Session - June 2, 2026

The Pottawattamie County Board of Supervisors held an open session meeting on June 2, 2026. Key procurement-related discussions included approval of a final plat for the West Hills Acres subdivision, involving a four-lot minor subdivision north of Council Bluffs, which was approved by roll call vote. The board also approved a fund transfer between capital project funds to comply with state auditor requirements for payment processing related to capital projects. Additionally, the board approved a starting pay increase for a new nurse at the county jail to retain qualified staff, reflecting local market rates. A significant discussion focused on the amortization schedule and cost-sharing options for a $630,000 seal coat road project on 195th Street, with debate over whether to assess property owners evenly or proportionally based on assessed value. The board considered the need to revisit and possibly revise their policy on secondary road assessment districts to clarify cost allocation methods. No final decision was made on the assessment method, with plans for further study and community input. Other agenda items included recognition of scholarship recipients and a proclamation for Elder Abuse Awareness Month, but these did not involve procurement actions.
