Our View notes voter choice in Finney County's upcoming race for county treasurer. The position opens with retiring Raylene Dick, who has served as county treasurer since 1988, leaving room for a new officeholder despite fewer contests in sheriff, county attorney, county commission, county clerk, and county register of deeds.
The race features Kendra Birkholz, Kelly Drees, and Josh Urteaga. Drees, a CPA with audit-firm experience and ties to local firms, is favored for her ethics and up-to-date expertise. Urteaga has been an in-office accountant since 2014, and Birkholz brings 15 years in the treasurer’s office, including five as deputy. The primary focuses on real estate and personal property taxes, motor vehicle taxes, and public understanding of taxes and fees.
