Commissioners also approved the resignation of longtime Court Clerk Melba Hall effective June 31 and appointed Mindy White as interim court clerk effective July 1.

Also approved were a $10,341 pay estimate from Robinson Construction for work on the Conser Road project and a resolution approving maximum monthly road expenditures for June.
