(KNZA)--The Brown County Commission has organized for the new year.
During their annual organizational meeting Monday, 3rd District Commissioner Bill Pollock was elected chairman for 2023.
The Commission approved a resolution designating The Horton Headlight as the official county newspaper. That came after the Commission accepted the low bid submitted by the newspaper for the publication of legal notices in the amount of $2.75 a column inch. The Hiawatha World submitted a bid of $6.50 a column inch.
The Commission also approved a resolution designating the Citizens State Bank and Trust Company and Morrill and Janes State Bank—a division of Bank of Blue Valley--as the official 2023 Brown County banks for checking and investments.
Following discussion, the commission decided to table for one week a decision on redistricting. The issue must be revisited every three years in order to maintain as close as possible a balanced population in the commission districts. County Clerk Dawn Boyles will contact an official with the Kansas Association of Counties for input before a decision is made.
