Ohio County Fiscal Court renews treasurer's bond and updates check signers
Summary
The court renewed the treasurer's bond through June 30 and authorized adding a backup check signer for bank accounts; members discussed the brief lapse and signatory arrangements.
The Ohio County Fiscal Court voted to renew the treasurer's bond through June 30 and to update check-signature authorization for county bank accounts.
Court members discussed that the current bond had a short effective window and that the renewal would cover the period until June 30. Court member Jason moved to renew the treasurer's bond; the motion was seconded by Court member Dale and the court approved the rebonding on a voice vote. "She's rebonded," the judge announced after the vote.
The court also approved adding Cassidy Stevens as an authorized check signer for the county account to sign checks in the treasurer's absence and to make Candace (listed in the record as "Candy") an authorized signer effective July 1. The clerk's financial report and receipt of the treasurer's 2025 financial statement were acknowledged on the record before the signatory motion.
Members raised a procedural question about why the bond had a 30-day coverage window; staff explained the bond had expired May 5 and the renewal covers May to June. No further details on the bond carrier, premium amount, or long-term bond term were provided during the meeting.
