County Council in Special Session Approves Deficit Funds
Daviess county held a special Thursday session called by County Auditor Thomas Nugent to provide about 2000 dollars to cover deficits in several funds for the year. Four council members attended led by Chairman Yoo J. Oggarnahan with Joan Eads Jeremiah Marden and James Porter. The meeting aimed to save already budgeted money and no other business was discussed. The board will reconvene next week to consider further appropriations and possibly reject bids if they exceed the approved amounts. County Attorney Aikman said new appropriations cannot be legal in a special session. The county commissioners postponed decorating bids until next week and will decide then. The January board session will also appoint the county attorney and health commissioner.
