CONSTRUCTION EVALUATION RESOLUTION

      WHEREAS, Iowa Code section 459.304(3) sets out the procedure if a board of supervisors wishes to adopt a “construction evaluation resolution” relating to the construction of a confinement feeding operation structure; and

      WHEREAS, only counties that have adopted a construction evaluation resolution can submit to the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) an adopted recommendation to approve or disapprove a construction permit application regarding a proposed confinement feeding operation structure; and

      WHEREAS, only counties that have adopted a construction evaluation resolution and submitted an adopted recommendation may contest the DNR’s decision regarding a specific application; and

      WHEREAS, by adopting a construction evaluation resolution the board of supervisors agrees to evaluate every construction permit application for a proposed confinement feeding operation structure received by the board of supervisors between February 1, 2009 and January 31, 2010 and submit an adopted recommendation regarding that application to the DNR; and

      WHEREAS, the board of supervisors must conduct an evaluation of every construction permit application using the master matrix created in Iowa Code section 459.305, but the board’s recommendation to the DNR may be based on the final score on the master matrix or may be based on reasons other than the final score on the master matrix;

      NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF DICKINSON COUNTY that the Board of Supervisors hereby adopts this construction evaluation resolution pursuant to Iowa Code section 459.304 (3).  Passed, approve, and adopted this second day of January, 2009.  All voted aye.

 

      Moved by Allen, seconded by Johnson to approve the letter of support for the grant application for the building material reuse and recycling program being proposed by the Lakes Community Land Trust and to authorize the vice-chair to sign.  All voted aye.

 

      The Board conducted a cash count, as recommended by the State Auditor’s office, in the Treasurer’s office.  No discrepancies were found.

 

      Board informally discussed an upcoming budget preparation timeline.

 

      There being no further business presented before the Board, it was moved by Jordan, seconded by Johnson to adjourn.  All voted aye.
