Auditor Mandy Berg told the Adair County Board of Supervisors on Nov. 5 that the ISAC unemployment pool will be terminated effective Jan. 1, 2026, requiring counties to choose how to handle unemployment claims going forward. Berg outlined two options: a reimbursable account in which the state initially pays claims and invoices counties quarterly, or a contributory account in which the state pays claims from a pooled fund and counties pay a percentage of taxable wages (the transcript notes the state contributory rate would start at 0.1%). Berg said the county currently pays 0.3% to the ISAC unemployment pool.
