Council approves new Martinsville City Court account, adds court users amid Odysee transition
Summary
The council approved Resolution 2025-0715 to establish a new Martinsville City Court bank account tied to the Odysee case-management/payment system and Resolution 2025-0716 to add authorized users to both the existing KeyCorp account (9481) and the new account. The measures passed by voice vote.
The Martinsville Common Council on Oct. 14 approved two related resolutions to facilitate the City Court's transition from KeyCorp to the Odysee system.
Staff explained that Citicorp (KeyCorp) is being replaced by the Odysee program and that establishing a new account with a zero starting balance tied to Odysee would simplify reconciliation. Resolution 2025-0715 establishes the new Martinsville City Court account for use with Odysee; Resolution 2025-0716 adds authorized users (Judge Grace Terrell and two court clerks) to both the existing KeyCorp account and the new Odysee account so court staff can access records and move funds case by case during the transition.
Mr. Meredith (city staff) described the operational reasons for a fresh account and noted the existing KeyCorp account still holds funds. Judge Grace Terrell confirmed she and the clerks require access during the transfer process. Council members moved and seconded each resolution and approved both by voice vote.
City staff said the KeyCorp account (account 9481) will remain open while funds are migrated and that the KeyCorp account is expected to be closed once the transition to Odysee is complete; staff estimated the transition would conclude by December. The resolutions formalize account establishment and the list of authorized users so bank records match court operations.
