CASEY COUNTY FISCAL COURT REPORT

 

The Casey County fiscal Court met in regular session Monday.

 

The magistrates voted to approve a partial payment on a baler and a shredder for the recycling center, thanks to a grant of nearly $28,000. They approved transfer fees on three new dump trucks the county recently purchased thanks to another grant of around $105,000.

 

The court approved a first reading of a budget amendment to reflect those two grants. Judge Executive Randy Dial says there may be more amendments coming to the budget due to COVID-19.

 

The court also approved a motion to once again seek a private audit firm for the yearly audit, which translates to a big savings to the county over having it done through the state.

 

Judge Dial recommended reappointing current members of the ethics board for another term, including Philip Godbey, Ricky Carmen, Ashley Lynn, and Dwight Coffman. He also recommended David Bennett to fill a fifth position. Those motions were approved.

 

The magistrates also voted to retain Kay-Co insurance for county employees.

 

The fiscal court went into executive session for about 20 minutes to discuss acquisition of real property. No action was taken.

 

Judge Dial expressed appreciation to everyone who pitched in recently to prepare the Ag Center for horse show activities. Since current state guidelines do not allow the use of inmate labor, the fiscal court is canceling all horse shows schedule at the Ag Center for the month of August. 

Gateway Park also remains closed.

 

Casey County Sheriff Chad Weddle gave his monthly activity report for the month of June.

 

The next regular meeting of the Casey County Fiscal Court is scheduled for Aug. 3rd.
