Adopt Resolution 26-51, to Accept Disabled American Veterans Auxiliary Donation." The Resolution 26-51 text: "DAV Auxiliary Unit 37 has offered to donate $500.00 to be used for Veterans' Services; and WHEREAS The stipulation of the gift are that it be used to assist Wright County Veterans and not supplement or otherwise replace other funds supplied to the department; and WHEREAS No goods or services were provided in exchange for said donation; and WHEREAS The County Board finds it appropriate to accept the donation offered." Operation Green Light. The October 21, 2025 agenda packet carries the NACo and NACVSO invitation "to join Operation Green Light and show support for veterans by lighting our buildings green from November 4 to November 11", and the minutes record: "2. Adopt Resolution 25-62, Declaring Wright County's Participation in Operation Green Light. At 9:26 a.m. Assistant Veteran Services Officer Elissa Selleck spoke on Resolution 25-62 ... Motion by Moynagh and seconded by Diedrick, Aye: 5." The board's year also carries the routine: the community health advisory council's amended by-laws add a "Veteran Services" sector seat (February 17, 2026 packet), and the September 15, 2026 budget workshop heard "Veterans Services - Director of Veterans Services, Greg Pickard presented", with "Moynagh question[ing] the number of veterans that the office serves".
