Commission approves corrected $80,000 bonding authorization for library treasurer
Summary
Ellis County commissioners revoked a prior motion and approved a corrected bonding authorization allowing the Ellis County Library Board to obtain $80,000 in bond insurance for two board positions (president and treasurer); county counselor confirmed no county expense.
Jennifer Tiget, treasurer with the Dallas County Library Board, told the commission that the board’s bond insurance total is $80,000 (not the previously recorded larger figure) and that the policy covers two board positions: president and treasurer.
The county counselor and staff reviewed and clarified motion language. Commissioner Nathan Leiker moved to revoke the prior motion concerning library board bonding and to approve the library board’s request to obtain bonding insurance in the amount of $80,000 for the treasurer position; another commissioner seconded the motion and the commission approved it. Tiget said there is no expense to the county for the bonding.
County staff said the motion language was reworked to be clearer and that the correction places the library board’s bonding in order without impacting county finances.
