They were added on Monday morning. Lancaster stated that the law provides that items can be added to the agenda 24 hours before the meeting. Discussion was held and the time they are added will be noted. COUNTY ATTORNEY - County Attorney Jack Zitterkopf stated that the open meetings law would indicate to him that a person who stops at the clerk's office could see a current agenda and anything that comes up can be added until 9:00 on Monday morning. Mr. Zitterkopf stated he wanted to update the board on the C & I Cattle Company and C & I Cattle Company East owned by Ken Kohlhof and he also talked to Attorney Dave Domina. He did receive a letter but did not bring it because it was after 9:00 on Monday regarding the concerns and that they will come in compliance. There was also concern if the corporations can be considered separate. This is a good start. 8. DISCUSS AND APPROVE JOB DESCRIPTION FOR CORRECTIONS DIRECTOR The corrections steering changed some wording and added "negotiate and administer all contracts and it was also suggested to change union to labor contracts.
