(Atlantic) The Cass County Board of Supervisors held the third public hearing on the sale of the county-owned farm this morning. There were no comments from the public.
Following the hearing, the Board tabled action on bids submitted for real estate services relating to the sale of the county-owned farm to the November 9th meeting so they have some more time to review the proposals. The Board also plans to hold closed interviews with the realtors and auctioneers on November 9th.

The county-owned farm includes the old Willow Heights building, approximately 115 acres of row crop ground and approximately 35 acres of pasture ground.
In other action, the Supervisors approved a resolution allocating American Rescue Plan Act Funds for a Retention Stipend to be paid out in a range of $85,000 to $95,000. Steve Baier said this retention stipend is only for employees, not elected officials.
The Supervisors also approved a request by Cass County Attorney Vanessa Strazdas and Sheriff Darby McLaren to transition employee Steph Witzman from part-time to full-time in the County Attorney’s and Sheriff’s departments.
