No one was present for public input,
County Treasurer Dan Knox was present to discuss the county's finances. Please see attached documentation. Knox addressed the fact that Video Gaming Tax for the county had not been received. This is due to the fact that a business was annexed into the city, therefore the county will not receive any more tax from that business. We were not notified of this change as payments were being withheld.
County Clerk Connie Simmons addressed the committee regarding the previously discussed change in payroll dates. She recommended that the payroll dates not be changed but rather the paid through date. This will begin on January 1, 2018. Motion by Jeff Williams and seconded by Cliff Lindemann to recommend to the Full Board to accept the payroll schedule as recommended by the County Clerk.
