Johnson County Allocates One-Percent Funds

Johnson County’s Commissioners voted to make some changes to the recommendations from the One-Percent Committee before allocating those funds at their Tuesday meeting.

They discussed the changes they made and why.

Commissioner Bob Perry reiterated that he feels the commissioners have made a commitment to the college to help them so they can continue to provide education and training for students that will eventually become employed at the skilled nursing facility, the hospital and other care facilities in the county.

The commissioners approved the modified allocation of the one-percent funds.

Full allocations for the county’s $100,000 one-percent allotment:

Compass Center for Families-$11,000.

Family Crisis Center-$15,000.

Hoofprints of the Past Museum-$7,500.

Kaycee Health Forum-$20,000.

Sheridan College in Johnson County-$19,000.
