The Leelanau County Board of Commissioners approved a relatively small number of items under their consent agenda at their March 19 meeting.
These included:
• The sheriff’s office’s application for a Revitalization and Placemaking Grant through the Michigan Municipal Risk Management Authority for a partial reimbursement of a recently purchased safety restraint chair. If approved, the grant would reimburse 50% of the cost up to $1,000.
• A contract amendment with the Traverse City-based computer consultant Safety Net increasing monthly costs by $2,200 due to changes in Information Technology infrastructure, retroactive through Jan. 1, 2024.
• A quote from BIS Digital to replace the nine microphones at the commissioner’s table with nine new boundary microphones and 10 new speakers to replace the existing soft mounted speakers, at a contracted amount of $11,747.
• The bylaws of the Leelanau County 9-1-1 Advisory Board, as revised on Nov. 30, 2023.
• Waived bid requirements and entering into an agreement with Machin Engineering to write the specifications and scope of work for the upgrade, maintenance of, and redesign of the hydraulic system for the Leland Dam, not to exceed $7,000.
