Steve Roberts has been re-appointed as chairman of the Brown County Commission for 2012.
Roberts was re-appointed during the commission’s annual organizational meeting today ( Monday ).
The Horton Headlight was designated as the official county paper for 2012.
The commission accepted the low bid from the Horton Headlight for $1.60 per column inch to publish official notices for the county. The Hiawatha World had submitted a bid for $2.50 per column inch.
County Clerk Debbie Parker said many of the same publications will also continue to be published in the Hiawatha World.
The commission approved a resolution designating the official 2012 Brown County Banks: for checking and investments—Citizens State Bank & Trust Company and Morrill & Janes State Bank; and for investments—Community National Bank, Farmers State Bank, Hiawatha National Bank, Union State Bank, and the Pony Express Bank.
Following discussion with auctioneer Bill Howard, a tentative date was set for March 10th at 1 p.m. to conduct an auction of items remaining in the old county jail.
The commission plans to demolish the old facility. Commissioner Warren Ploeger said so far no one has stepped forward interested in purchasing the building.
