MASON CITY — The Cerro Gordo County Board of Supervisors approved major budget transfers, fiscal year 2027 appropriations, a bridge contract, airport road closures and a bid schedule for a planned Rockwell Secondary Roads building during its regular meeting on June 22, 2026.
Chairman Casey Callanan convened the meeting at 10:00 AM. Supervisor Chris Watts was present, while Vice Chairman Carl Ginapp participated by phone. Members of the public also attended.
The board first approved the day’s agenda and the minutes from the June 15 regular session. A public comment session was held, and supervisors approved county claims totaling $582,670.46.
Supervisors also approved the payroll register for the period ending June 13, 2026.
A major financial item was Resolution 2026-44, which approved operating transfers between county funds. The board ordered $3,043,914 transferred from the General Supplemental Fund to the General Fund, effective June 22, 2026. Supervisors also approved transferring $2,288,140 from the General Fund to the Capital Projects Fund.
The board then approved Resolution 2026-45, setting fiscal year 2027 supplemental appropriations totaling $45,916,290. The appropriations authorize departments and county officers to spend from their assigned funds beginning July 1, 2026.
