Treasurer relays citizen praise for motor-vehicle staff; board approves step increase

County Treasurer Cassie Anderson read a letter from a citizen (Scott Grapp) recognizing two motor-vehicle staff members, identified in the letter as Kylie and Julie, for spending extra time to resolve a complicated vehicle-registration transaction while following the rules. "They did all this while staying squarely inside the rules," Anderson read aloud to the commissioners and asked that the recognition be placed in the employees' professional files and passed up through the chain to the Kansas Department of Revenue Division of Vehicles.

Separately, Anderson presented a Personnel Change Notice for a step increase for Jennifer Allison. Commissioner 3 moved to approve the PCN effective Sept. 27, 2026; the motion was seconded and the board voted in favor. Commissioners thanked Anderson and congratulated staff.
