October 1st, 2011 by admin

The Atlantic School District will pay $300,000 to the families of three students who were stripped search by a school employee in 2009. The settlement was first reported by the Omaha World-Herald.

As part of the settlement, each family of the three students will receive $100,000.

The lawsuit, alleged that former Atlantic High School Assistant principal Paul Croghan ordered a strip search of five female students when another student reported they were missing $100. No money was found after the searches. Croghan resigned in 2009.

The plaintiffs in the lawsuit allege the school violated the girls state and federal rights against unreasonable searches.

Atlantic Schools admitted earlier this fall that the searches were against school policy and state law. They also said the girls did not do anything wrong.

Guthrie County Board of Supervisors Meeting

News

September 30th, 2011 by admin

Banks in Guthrie County made a presentation to the Guthrie County Board of Supervisors Tuesday saying they are not interested in holding the county’s estimated $12 million in revenue.

The banks say they would prefer not to hold the money until the revenue is divvied out to local schools and cities later in October. That presentation was made by Guthrie County Treasurer Marcia Kindred and Guthrie County State Bank President Barry Monaghan.

Monaghan says because there are currently very few construction projects taking place, the area banks already have money on hand, but no one to lend it to. She says that they only have two construction loans out this year, when in a normal year they usually see about 15.

The Supervisors eventually voted unanimously to deposit the tax revenues with the Iowa Public Agency Investment Trust.
