Summary

The sheriff presented $5,400 from recent firearm sales and the court approved accepting and placing the funds into the sheriff's capital outlay account for equipment purchase.

Ohio County Fiscal Court accepted $5,400 from recent gun sales and approved placing the funds into the sheriff’s capital outlay account to purchase equipment, the sheriff told the court.

The sheriff said the department sold some firearms and is still awaiting the return of other items from Kentucky State Police; the $5,400 was in hand and he requested the court accept it into capital outlay. "I don't like cash laying around my office. I want to be put somewhere," the sheriff said.

A magistrate made a motion to accept the funds and the court approved the request by voice vote. The sheriff said additional sales remain pending and he will return with further revenue when available.
