Court Rules E911 Didn’t Have Authority To Enter Into Agreement
Court case between Mahaska County Board of Supervisors and Mahaska County E911 Service Board and Mahaska County Emergency Management.
Mahaska County District Court Judge Crystal Cronk made a ruling in regard to the ongoing battle between the Mahaska County Board of Supervisors and the E911 Service Board and Mahaska County Emergency Management.
At the center of the argument is the E911 Service Board’s ability to enter into 28E agreements.
Cronk wrote, “The Court’s analysis begins with the issue of whether an entity, created by a 28E agreement, may then enter into 28E agreement. The parties agree that the matter should be heard by the Court, as there are no material facts in dispute. The Court, finding the issue is one solely of law, concurs that summary judgment is proper.”
E911 And Emergency Management Discuss Lawsuit And Console
In the opening comments for the E911 Service Board Meeting, Supervisor Mark Groenendyk said he believed a letter sent from the Mahaska County Supervisors to the E911 Service Board was misrepresented. The board has agreed to fund the agency according to the 1991 28E agreement.
According to that document, Groenendyk said he expects the entities involved in the 1991 Agreement to contribute their agreed amount. “The Board of Supervisors will not, however, continue to participate in an illegal funding mechanism. We expected the other member political subdivisions will contribute their fair share as well.”
