The Cass County Board of Supervisors will hold their regular weekly meeting beginning at 8:30-a.m. Tuesday, this week, instead of Wednesday. On their agenda is continued discussion with regard to the operation of All-Terrain Vehicles (ATV’s) and Utility Terrain Vehicles (UTV’s) on county roadways and trails. Last week, the Board heard from representatives with Nishna Valley Cycle, in Atlantic, with regard to ordinances other counties have enacted for use of ATV’s and UTV’s on their county roads and trails. Their main concern was making sure those machines are registered and operated in a safe manner, and make it easier for law enforcement to intervene when they aren’t being operated safely. As it currently stands, ATV’s and UTV’s can only be operated for farm purposes, and may only cross highways at a certain angle. They are not allowed travel on the roads.

In other business, the Board of Supervisors will hear from Mitch Holmes, who will present his quarterly Veterans Affairs Department report. They’ll also act on approving applications for partial payment to two construction companies working on segments of the Elite Octane, LLC ethanol plant. Other, regularly scheduled reports, as available, may be presented by the County Attorney, Engineer, and Mental Health/General Assistance Departments.
