Monday Morning the Osage County Board of County Commissioners met for their weekly meeting. On the schedule was several property auctions, the continued discussion regarding providing funding for County Corner Fire Department and Ambulance Service, and a Public Hearing regarding opening a section line.

District #2 Commissioner Darren McKinney,opened the floor for discussion during the public hearing, however the only comments were for the line opening. The approval of the section line was more of a formality, the roadway was originally established more than 40 years ago by then District #1 Commissioner L.B. May. The roadway however has never been the County's responsibility to maintain. The approval of the section line will allow the county to begin maintaining the roadway for Osage County Residents.

The Commissioners also approved a rate increase for the rental of the Osage County Fairgrounds Arenas and Buildings, the updated pricing will soon be posted at the Fairgrounds for all interested parties.

The Osage County Board of County Commissioners will meet again next Monday October 31 for their regular scheduled meeting.
