Clay County Commission renames courthouse annex for Raymond D. "Dusty" Bassick
Clay County commissioners voted to rename the county courthouse annex the Raymond D. Bassick Annex, with a friendly amendment adding his commonly used nickname, "Dusty." The motion to approve Resolution 2025-42 was moved and seconded, and commissioners adopted the resolution by roll-call vote.

The resolution’s sponsor said Bassick had long advocated for the addition and was instrumental in moving the project forward, noting he had pushed for the work for years and that a dedication plaque already exists inside the building. A commissioner offered a friendly amendment to include the nickname "Dusty," which was accepted during discussion. Commissioners asked logistics questions about sign placement and agreed the sign should face the parking lot where arriving public would see it.

At roll call, all named members present voted in favor and the motion passed. The county will retain the existing interior dedication plaque and add exterior signage to reflect the new name. No further formal actions or funding for signage were approved at the meeting; design details were deferred to staff and will be handled administratively.
