MINUTES OF THE ALLAMAKEE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
MONDAY, AUGUST 10, 2026
(UNOFFICIAL)
Board members present: Keatley, Byrnes, Clark. All members voting “AYE” unless noted.
Meeting called to order by Clark, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance.

Auditor Beyer and Supervisor Clark reviewed meetings held last week regarding agenda management software options. No action taken today; Beyer will contact some references for one of the vendors and return with a recommendation.
Dave Mooney presented options for Solid Waste contracts. He has talked to Richards Sanitation – they came down to $320 per pull. If the county does rural pickup ourselves, Richards will do recycling at the 3 main rural sites – Lansing, Waterville and Harpers Ferry; Richards cost for main site is $119,000; add $65,150 additional costs – total $184,150 per year for contract after the truck is purchased. About $250,000 with a FT employee with hauling charges and not including truck compared to about $315,000 for Richards to do everything. Having a garbage truck will save the county about $50-60K per year; there is immediate expense of buying the truck now with about a 4 year payback. Truck bids were reviewed. Back-up plan if truck has issues is a trailer at a cost of $25,694. Recycling will be taken to Caledonia. Life span of truck is expected to be 10 years.
26.277-Motion Keatley/Second Byrnes to approve purchase of the Ford garbage truck at $172,900 along with a trailer at $25,694 for Solid Waste and approve contract for Richards for all duties with main site at $119,000. Motion carried.
Department Head updates: Dave Mooney gave update on city use of rural solid waste site and the costs related to removal of the waste; a work session with city was discussed. Sheriff Mellick would like to reserve a parking spot for loading/unloading inmates for court; reviewed weekend incidents; would like to meet with hospital board about securing a location to hold an individual in a medical setting due to mental health. Auditor Beyer gave update on tax statement process and upcoming deadlines for election.
26.278-Motion Keatley/Second Byrnes to adjourn. Motion carried.
