Presiding Commissioner Jim Wheatley has provided Mid America Live with the following documents indicating all ARPA funds allocated have been accounted for.
During our phone conversation late yesterday when asked if he believed there was danger that Bates county would have to repay any portion of the $3.14 million he stated "I'm confident we will not".
As concerns mount that the county will indeed be 'on the hook' to repay a large portion of the funds, a public meeting has been scheduled for this morning, 10 am in the basement of the county offices on the southwest corner of the Butler square.
