Board of Commissioners to Hold Four Public Hearings at Business Meeting

The Josephine County Board of Commissioners is scheduled to hold four public hearings during its weekly business session this morning.

The public hearings are on the first reading of ordinances related to the payment of attorney fees, utility consumer choice, sanitary landfills and designation of certain county lands for sanitary landfills. Second readings are set for September 4th.

Under Administrative Actions, the Board will consider an order outlining general fund appropriations in the general fund departments. Appropriations of general fund money within departments would be treated as a not-to-exceed appropriation. General fund departments would watch both their spending appropriation as well as their revenues in the same fashion that all other county departments operate.

During Requests and Comments from Citizens, members of the public are given three minutes to address the Board on virtually any topic pertaining to Josephine County.

The Board will open the session with a Chamber of Commerce presentation on the 2024 Lemonade Day event.

Today's public meeting begins at 9 a.m. in the Anne G. Basker Auditorium.
