Purpose

Amend Rule II.C. (Regular Meeting Agenda)

Background

Sauk County Board Rule II.C. sets forth the agenda format for regular meetings of the Sauk County Board of Supervisors. Agenda item 10 currently contains five independent items under one agenda listing: appointments, bills, referrals, claims and elections. In addition, the current agenda format does not include an agenda item informing or reminding supervisors of the opportunity to submit proposed business items to the Administrative Coordinator’s Office pursuant to Sauk County Board Rule III.A for committee referral or addition to the county board agenda. The amendments to Rule II.C. authorized by this resolution create separate agenda items for the five categories currently included in agenda item 10 and create a new non-discussion agenda item that informs or reminds supervisors of the first step for initiating county board consideration of a new proposed business item under the current rules.
