The Nowata County Commissioners discussed multiple items at Monday's meeting, starting with the sales tax budget for the upcoming fiscal year.
The biggest point of discussion in that was the budget for the Nowata Public Library because they are set to hire an entirely new staff on July 1st. The sales tax payout is divided between three entities including the library, the fair building, and the extension building. Nowata County Clerk Kay Spurgeon says commissioners have some options.
The motion was accepted by the Commissioners. Next, they also agreed to continue the county’s participation in a workman’s compensation program for another year.
The commissioners will meet again next Monday at 9 am at the Nowata County Courthouse Annex and the meeting is open to the public.
