Adair County Fiscal Court, in its regular monthly meeting August 9, 2005, got good news from the jail operation, good news on economic development progress, and heard the news that the Sheriff's cruisers will be in this month. The court expanded areas with speed limits. Members of the Court learned of a disagreement with the City of Columbia over a recruiting raid on the sheriff's department. And, already, the busy court heard from Judge Vaughan that a special called meeting is needed to deal with the tax rate, a new transfer station contract, and the animal shelter.

County Judge Jerry Vaughan presided, with all magistrates and most county officials present on a night when the Courthose Square was filled with cars staying late for District Court and coming early to "The Dukes of Hazzard," at the Columbian Theatre.

And the Sheriff became one of the first county officials to officially state that he is a candidate for re-election.
