Council requests audit of hours and notifies Western Plains board about reimbursements after executive session
Summary
After two executive sessions on non-elected personnel, the council approved a motion to notify Western Plains regarding lack of reimbursement for employee wages and requested an audit of Larry Pennington’s hours; council also discussed vehicle maintenance and future patrol vehicle purchases.
Officer Niles provided the Police Department update, reporting maintenance activity on three police Chargers and that the department will consider purchasing a new police vehicle in 2027 and 2028. The department’s maintenance needs led to further personnel discussion in executive session.
