Updates regarding various boards, commissions, and activities since the last meeting: Campbell attended
the FMC Landfill meeting. Carr attended her final County Social Services meeting, as well as a Decat meeting, an
employee handbook committee meeting, a CIJDC subcommittee meeting, the CIJDC board meeting, spoke with
John Robbins about future ordinances.
Annette Dean (Charles City), Elaine Ott (Marble Rock), and Renee Bartling (Nora Springs) presented the
Floyd County Library Association’s budget request, thanking the Supervisors for their continued support. They
noted increasing program and daily attendance and requested a 3% funding increase for FY27 to help offset
inflation, especially as libraries losing the 27‑cent levy face significant financial adjustments. They emphasized the
importance of county support in maintaining essential services.
Andrea Evelsizer, Healthy Harvest North Iowa Executive Director, requested a $3,200 contribution to
support local food and farm education in Floyd County, noting that county funds also serve as valuable matching

dollars for grants. She highlighted 2025 activities including food education at the Charles City Farmers Market, a
Field Day at Cedar River Pizza Company, and support for eight local food businesses featured in their regional
guides. Andrea also described growing collaboration with Charles City FFA through a Farm to School grant effort
and local food sourcing for school events, and emphasized that continued county support strengthens their ability to
grow the local food system.
Rottinghaus/Campbell moved to approve the appropriation of $75,000 from General Basic Fund to
Emergency Management Fund. Motion carried 3-0.
Duane Folz, Engineer’s Assistant, presented research on bollard requirements for wellhead protection and
referenced the county’s current resolution, which specifies three bollards spaced five feet apart for confinement
feeding operation wellheads. He noted that a landowner had suggested spacing two of the three bollards ten feet
apart to allow additional room for well repairs; however, after consulting with a local well company, it was
determined that keeping the three bollards closer together is preferable because it allows service trucks to access the
well more easily while providing stronger protection. Wider spacing could leave enough room for vehicles to back
between the bollards, increasing the risk of damage. The Board discussed adjusting the spacing requirement to a
minimum of three feet and a maximum of four feet.
The Board noted the hiring of Equipment Operator II, Mark Bailey at $24.92 per hour, effective February
2, 2026.
Carr explained that there is a medical leave in the dispatch/communications department and recommended
that the employee who has stepped up receive an additional $2.00 per hour, retroactive to January 12, 2026, when
the duties were assumed. Rottinghaus/Campbell moved to approve a $2.00‑per‑hour increase ($29.75/hour) for Alan
Schwickerath, retroactive to January 12, 2026, until the situation returns to normal. Motion carried 3–0.
The Board noted fees collected from the auditor, recorder, and sheriff for the quarter ending December 31,
2025.
Future agenda items: bollards resolution, the moratorium, the contract for services with NICOG, the
county fee schedule for Planning & Zoning and the Board of Health, and the Nora Springs property.
The Boad recessed from 10:10- 10:15 a.m.
The Board conducted FY27 budget reviews including agency requests, levy rates, and expenses to cut.
Campbell/Rottinghaus moved to adjourn. Motion carried 3-0.
