The Lincoln County Board of Commissioners met for their regular meeting through a combination of in-person and teleconference attendance. Board Chair Joe Drietz was absent. Because the meeting included teleconference members, all votes were conducted by roll call vote.
According to Lincoln County Auditor-Treasurer Deb Vierhuf, the county is required to identify the parcels where those taxes cover the bond payment, which is referred to as a property tax abatement. A public hearing regarding the property tax abatement was held at 9:05 a.m., during the regular meeting. According to Vierhuf, “We plan to use the additional wind tower production tax money to pay for the bond but we still have to identify those parcels just in case the wind tax money is not sufficient to cover. Our expectation is that the additional wind money will cover the payments.” There were no members of the public attending the public hearing for approving the property tax abatement.
