(Harlan) The Shelby County Board of Supervisors will hold farmland rent auctions during their meeting Tuesday.
The auctions are for the Shelby County farm south of Harlan and the Shelby County Solid Waste Agency. The auction begins at 9:00 a.m. at the Therkildsen Center in Harlan. Attendance is limited to 15 people. If more than 15 people are present for the land auction, the auctions will be conducted outside. The meeting will then commence limiting attendance to 15 people. If there are too many guests present, then the meeting will have to recess and be conducted electronically the next day or a date to be decided.
Those who attend the meeting should consider maximum social distancing. The farm ground rent auctions will be the very first item on the Supervisors agenda. After the auctions, the Supervisors will recess and let any crowd disperse and then begin their regular meeting. The Supervisors will later recess again and prepare for any department budgets that may be available for consideration.
Items on the agenda following the auction include Wendy Mueller with West Central Community Action, Brent Scheve with a County Insurance Update, Todd Valline with Shelby County Chamber of Commerce, Brandon Burmeister with a Secondary Roads Report, Taryn Knapp with Shelby County Financial Software Upgrade, Supervisor Committee Reports and County Handbook Revisions.
