Commission to authorize staff to claim Sedgwick County unclaimed property with state treasurer
Summary
County staff proposed a resolution to designate the county manager, CFO or designee to file claims with the Kansas state treasurer to recover unclaimed property for Sedgwick County departments such as EMS and Register of Deeds.
Justin (S2) told commissioners that searches of the state treasurer's unclaimed-property listings show Sedgwick County entities (for example, Sedgwick County EMS and the Register of Deeds) have unclaimed funds. He proposed a simple resolution to authorize the county manager, the county CFO, or their designee to make those claims so recovered funds can be routed to the correct department or fund.
The chair (S1) and others praised ongoing state treasurer outreach; S1 singled out state treasurer Steven Johnson and Sedgwick County Treasurer Brandy Bailey for collaborating on a public outreach tent that helped residents and county entities identify recoverable property. Justin said staff had communicated with the state treasurer’s office and would bring a resolution forward to authorize the signatory authority.
