Commissioners discuss credit cards during meeting

Body
The Rooks County Commission meeting was held on Tuesday, February 20th, and they first met with the register of deeds, April Brown, who asked about a credit card to use for her office to pay bills, etc. The County has a credit card with multiple accounts for use, but having her own would help keep each department’s accounts separate. Also, with the one card the County does have, only the administrator can call in to ask questions.
