Jasper County waiting on state to act on adult-business measure Jim Honey, Eastern District associate commissioner, said he had been meeting with officials of Sarcoxie, Asbury and La Russell on road and bridge issues.
Darieus Adams, Western District commissioner, said work crews are completing the installation of a new video-camera system in the county juvenile detention center. He said old cameras will be moved to the Jasper County Courts Building in Joplin. Adams reported that applications for federal emergency shelter grants are under review. If the county gets the maximum grant, $65,000 would be shared by Lafayette House, Children’s Haven, the Carthage Crisis Center, Economic Security Corp. and the Salvation Army of Joplin. The commissioners approved contracts allowing the county clerk’s office to prepare tax books for La Russell, Waco and Carterville. Going up? Commissioner Darieus Adams said the elevator in the Jasper County Courthouse is out of service until repairs can be made to the emergency braking system. That work could take two weeks or longer, he said. Adams said the county has made arrangements to provide service to disabled residents. He said the county has set up a telephone at the end of the ramp entrance in the courthouse basement. Disabled residents can use the phone to call the county office they want to reach, and a worker will come to them.
