Osage County adopts UMB credit-card resolution, approves $225,943 in bills amid voucher backlog
Summary
The board adopted an organization resolution for a UMB credit card program naming administrators and signers, discussed bank signature forms and missing voucher reports, and approved $225,943.53 in bills while staff continues reconciling old reports.
On May 19, 2026, the Osage County Board of County Commissioners adopted an organization resolution and agreement for the UMB credit card program, naming administrators and authorized signers, and approved paying $225,943.53 in bills for the selected batch dated May 18.
County Controller Tony Parish and Treasurer Becky Holberg led discussion about bank signature templates, copies of social-security cards and driver’s licenses some banks requested, and whether to leave a clerk line blank temporarily on account forms. Commissioners agreed to keep two administrators on certain accounts as backups and to coordinate paperwork submitted to banks.
Treasurer and clerk staff said voucher approvals had not been completed since April 29 and that missing system reports and archival “envelopes” were delaying balancing and wire transfers. Staff said they needed time to pull older reports and reconcile a payment that could not be located in the records before distributions would be finalized.
The board approved the UMB resolution and authorized the designated administrators to sign. Commissioners approved the bills motion by voice vote and scheduled a follow-up meeting for Friday, May 22 at noon to handle urgent bills if needed.
