October 7, 2025 Wells County Commissioners Part 1 of 4

Public Comment: See 4.0 Mark on part 1 - The Board was asked about holding two positions. Dan and the board stated that Dan DID NOT HOLD two positions. This is not true. He is the Auditor and the County Superintendent. Dan has stated in other meeting that he could be made the recorder also. That would be three positions and salaries.

The question was about how many positions salary is one person getting. This was a fair question. The Commissioners need to readdress the question with an apology and an explanation of Dan salary from these two positions.

Chris Kluth - WC Sheriff
Oliver Bromke- States Attorney
Jason Mayfield - Wold Engineering

Lydia Gessele - Patron on Taxes & Gossip
The Chairman Dennis gives warning to Lydia for making them look bad. Demanding respect. Patron may not agree with them, but they should be able to bring ANY CONCERNS as long as there is no yelling and sticking to the topic. Neither should the Board at Senior Citizen tablet be gossiping about Lydia or anyone. All business discussions should be in public view not outside of the meetings. This is violation of the Open meeting laws.
