The Greene County Board of Supervisors met Monday in regular session.

During open forum, County Engineer Wade Weiss told the Board about Alan Jensen’s resignation, effective this Friday. Jensen has been a county employee since 1981 when he started in the auditor’s office, then switched over to the engineer’s office in 1997. 

The Board approved the next step in issuing general obligation bonds from the wind turbines through tax increment financing for the new career academy project.
