Supervisors discussed assessor workload and options for property programs before moving to eliminate a county program that had created additional assessor workload. The supervisors referenced HF2351 during the discussion and as part of the motion.

County participants described verification work required when property owners apply for certain classification programs. An assessor’s-office representative (identified as Andrea) told supervisors she spends about a week processing these applications, while a colleague (identified as Judy) spends "2 to 3 weeks" verifying similar files. Supervisors raised concerns about unequal participation and the administrative burden of ensuring properties are placed in the correct program or not "double dipping" between programs.

During discussion one supervisor said a change would reduce assessor workload; another described alternatives, including one-time forced-reserve signups and DNR-certified conservation options. A supervisor proposed a motion "to eliminate the... school board program," and another supervisor mentioned "HF2351" while seconding the motion.

The board voted by voice. The clerk called for those in favor; several supervisors answered "aye," and the motion carried. The transcript does not record individual roll-call votes or the full formal title of the eliminated program. Supervisors agreed to rely on county staff and legal review if further steps were required.

Clarifying details discussed during the item include the relative staff time required to verify program applications (Andrea: about one week; Judy: two to three weeks), the existence of alternative programs (including one-time forced-reserve signups and DNR conservation forms), and the suggestion that eliminating the program could reduce annual assessor workload. The transcript records the vote as a voice vote with multiple "ayes" and no recorded nays or abstentions.
