Clerk reports personnel changes, indigent defense agreements and VOCA grant cash-match correction

Clerk Laura Butler presented routine administrative items during her report. She asked the board to approve travel and training reimbursements, including $20 for Dee Dunaway to attend training in Hamilton on Dec. 20, 2016 and $20 for Jay Chestnut to attend a meeting in Columbus on Dec. 9, 2016. Butler also asked the board to approve payment of accrued compensatory time and reported hiring a part-time collection processor at $12.58 per hour effective Dec. 12, 2016, while accepting a resignation effective Dec. 16, 2016.

On grants and legal services, Butler said the prosecutor's office amended resolution 16 11 0 4 0 0 6 for the 2017 VOCA grant to reflect a corrected cash match of $32,849.15. She also described agreements to provide representation to indigent defendants in municipal courts, noting approximate city payments: Oxford ~$3,306.30; Hamilton $96,127.25; Fairfield $58,460.09 for 2017 attorney costs.

The board approved the clerk's report items by voice vote. These personnel and contract figures were presented as estimates or program charges; Butler framed them as the expected payments for attorney services during calendar year 2017.
