The Casey County Fiscal Court met in regular session Monday.
Meagan Klee with Casey County 4H, brought several members of the 4H club to observe the meeting.
Judge Executive, Randy Dial, discussed recent improvements to Gateway Park. The siding and windows of the Community Center have been redone, and painting and pressure washing operations are underway on the building, decks, and concession stand.
New swings & toys have been added.
Judge Dial told the court there is still some work to be done, including Safety Mulch to be added around the swings and play area to meet safety compliance standards. A motion was made and carried to add the mulch.
In other business, Judge Dial told the court he recently received the Consumer Price Index of 2.1% and recommended a county employee cost of living adjustment of 2% to take effect March 2nd. The motion carried.
The meeting was officially adjourned, but the court took time to answer questions from the 4H students. They asked several questions of the Judge and Magistrates concerning the operations and functions of the court in relation to county government. Klee said she wanted the students to see processes of local government in action, and is also planning a visit to observe the Liberty City Council.
