County Supervisors to Consider Gravel Lease and Marina Transfer
Buena Vista County Supervisors will hold a special session Tuesday at 8:30 a.m. to consider a gravel stockpile lease, a management and title transfer agreement for Storm Lake Marina, and a minor subdivision request, among other routine approvals. These agenda items could affect road maintenance, recreational assets, land use and county finances, and the meeting includes a possible closed session on pending litigation.
The Buena Vista County Board of Supervisors will convene a special session Tuesday at 8:30 a.m. in the boardroom with remote participation available via GoToMeeting. The session opens with a secondary roads report from Engineer Bret Wilkinson and discussion of a proposed gravel stockpile lease that could influence road repair capacity and ongoing maintenance budgets.
Following the engineer update, the board will open time to hear the public before County Attorney Paul Allen leads two segments at 9:00 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. that are listed as possible closed sessions under Chapter 21.5(1)(c) for strategy with counsel related to pending or imminent litigation. The presence of these items signals potential legal exposure or disputes that supervisors say require confidential attorney consultation.
After a short break, Environmental Health and Zoning Director Ben Mueggenberg will present a minor subdivision application for Mark and Pamela Caboth for property described as NE NE 26 91 38. If approved under Resolution 2025 12 09 A, the subdivision will alter parcel boundaries with implications for property taxation, zoning oversight and local land use planning.
Action items scheduled for the meeting include approving minutes from the December 2, 2025 session, accepting several submitted reports, and voting on a Management and Title Transfer Agreement for Storm Lake Marina. Approval of the marina agreement could change operational responsibility and legal title for a key recreational asset, with potential effects on local tourism, liability and municipal oversight.
Reports submitted for review and acceptance include December 2025 safety meeting minutes, September and November 2025 Board of Health minutes, and the November 2025 sheriff report. Acceptance of these materials is routine, but they inform public safety, health policy and administrative accountability.
The special session is set to adjourn to the board s regular meeting on Tuesday December 16 at 8:30 a.m. Residents who wish to follow or participate remotely should use the meeting s provided GoToMeeting dial in information. The agenda lists further officer and committee assignments for supervisors and outlines the specific resolutions to be considered.
