Feeling it better to have an entire commission vote on a contract for a county counselor, a short-handed Barton County Commission tabled the important action until its next meeting a week from Tuesday. On the agenda this week was the option to pick from two proposals for the position, created a year ago after the resignation of long-time County Administrator Richard Boeckman who had filled this role. Proposals came from current Counselor Carey Hipp of Ellsworth and Allen Glendenning of Great Bend.
