Summary

Kelsey Winsky, District Court Clerk, requested the county pay $7,000 from the general fund for courtroom upgrades with assurance from OJA that the amount would be reimbursed after application; commissioners discussed the request and noted reimbursements should be quick.

District Court Clerk Kelsey Winsky told the Osage County Board of Commissioners on July 7 that the Office of Judicial Administration (OJA) offered bids or grant funding that would reimburse $7,000 if the county paid the amount up front.

Winsky asked the commission to allow the payment to be made from the county general fund rather than the district court fund because the administrative process would be simpler; she said reimbursements should be a quick turnaround. The funds would be used to upgrade both courtrooms. The minutes record discussion of the request but do not record a formal vote to fund the expense from a specific account during the meeting.
