The Louisa County Board of Supervisors recently approved a resolution requesting $139,901 in available funding through the federal CARES Act to purchase personal protective equipment (PPE), temperature sensors and other emergency equipment, according to the Muscatine Journal.
The action was approved at the board meeting on Aug. 25. Louisa County Emergency Management Service Director Brian Hall previously reported the possible funding to the board and provided a table showing that nine incorporated communities in the county could also tap into the funding.
The board also amended a drainage tax abatement resolution for Two River Drainage District. The original resolution abated drainage taxes that the district would have been assessing on itself because of a software glitch that officials thought had been fixed, but had to be amended because the original resolution mistakenly included an incorrect parcel number.
For the final action issue of the meeting, the board approved a $2,048 payout for unused vacation time accrued by naturalist Bobbie Donovan, who resigned from the conservation board earlier this year.
