(KLZA)--Richardson County Commissioners awarded a bid in an amount of nearly $267-thousand dollars for the county general liability, errors and omissions, workers comp, motor vehicle and property insurance when they met Tuesday.

The bid, which is more than $10-thousand less than last years amount, was awarded to Miller-Monroe Insurance Company in Falls City, serving as an agent for Berkshire Hathaway Homestate Companies.

In other action, Board members reviewed emergency and security procedures for the Courthouse from Sheriff Don Pounds.  

Pounds request to establish on-call time pay at $7.50 per day for deputies was approved and will go into effect June 17.   

A driveway/access policy, rules and permit form that has been under review was also approved.
