County treasurer warns auditor finding could force special meeting, threaten JDC and court-clerk payroll
Summary
Comanche County Treasurer Rhonda Brantley told the Excise Board a likely State Auditor finding about monthly apportionment may require a special meeting and could create a tight timeline to secure payroll funds for the Juvenile Detention Center and the Court Clerk's office.
Comanche County Treasurer Rhonda Brantley told the Excise Board at its March 2 meeting that a likely finding from State Auditors concerning the monthly apportionment process may force a special meeting and complicate payroll timing for state-funded offices.
Brantley said a special meeting would be required only if the last working day of the month falls on a Friday and that any special meeting would first need approval by the Board of County Commissioners before the Excise Board could act. She warned this sequence could “create a tight timeline to get funds for payroll in time,” and said the schedules for bank statement delivery and apportionment balancing worsened the risk for the Juvenile Detention Center (JDC) and the Court Clerk’s office.
The matter was raised during public comment and recorded under the agenda item addressing the Treasurer’s monthly apportionment process. The board did not take additional formal action on the apportionment at this meeting; Brantley’s comments were entered into the record for follow-up with the County Commissioners and for potential scheduling of a special meeting if the auditor’s finding is confirmed.
