There is a 10% increase on the insurance rate for Wilson County upon renewal.

 

The county's partnership with EMC Insurance was renewed for a nearly 10% increase to last year's total. The reason for this is the increased evaluation rates across the region, leading to higher costs in insurance.

 

Additionally, the county renewed a Postage Meter Lease with Quadient for the price of $50,219. Maintenance Supervisor Nick Lewis says that the county has worked with Quadient in the past, and they are reliable.

 

Also discussed at this week's Wilson County Commission meeting was a formal request for allocation of liquor tax funds for Four County Mental Health, courtesy of Executive Director Greg Hennen.

 

There will be no meeting next week. The commissioners will meet next on June 21st at 9 a.m. in Room 101 of the Wilson County Courthouse.
