(Greenfield, Iowa) – The Adair County Board of Supervisors met in a regular session this (Wednesday) morning. During their session, the Board acknowledged receipt of a Manure Management Plan Update from Martin Pork Production out of Afton, to spread manure in the southeast portion of Adair County. They also accepted “with regret,” the resignation of the current Harrison Township Clerk, and they appointed Molly Dolch to take over the position.

In other business, the Adair County Supervisors heard from Bryan Belden and Ashraf “Ash” Ashour – Administrator, with the City of Stuart, with regard to a Local Option Sales Tax (LOST) TIF (Tax Increment Financing) Extension. Belden explained the “geography” and the “boundaries” stay the same, it’s just a renewal (of the LOST/TIF).

The current agreement is in effect until June 30, 2023. Any improvements have to stay within the TIF area. Supervisor John Twombly and Board Chair Steve Shelley said while they have no issue with extending the agreement, both would like to have the County Attorney look it over, to make sure “the wording is satisfactory,” according the Shelley. The rest of the Board agreed.

And, County Engineer Nick Kauffman reported on Secondary Roads Department activities. He mentioned Gus Construction is working on the Lake Road project.
