Spurgeon sat in as the clerk on Monday. The commissioners approved a resolution for a turnover audit. This is standard protocol for when an officer leaves and is replaced.

The board opted to table an item regarding the sales tax plan for the 2020-2021 fiscal year. The commissioners wanted to see all county officers present before making a decision. In previous years, this plan has been discussed over multiple meetings. An item regarding a detention services contract with Craig County was also tabled.
