Bourbon County will host the Spring 2013 County Officials meeting, commissioners announced at the county commission meeting on Friday.

Eighty to 100 officials from 17 Kansas counties are expected to be in attendance at that March gathering. The meetings are held twice a year in different counties throughout the state.

They allow county employees to get together with their peers.

County Commissioner Allen Warren said he’d like to see the departments that will be involved in the meeting start preparing for it by thinking about a venue and accommodations.

“I want us to start that planning process of where we’re going to hold it and what meals we’ll serve, all those things,” Warren said.

Departments that participate in the meeting are the county clerk’s office, county treasurer’s office, county commissioners and the road and bridge supervisor.

Warren said he’d like to schedule and hold the first planning meeting within about a month.

The spring 2012 meeting was held in Iola last week and will be held in Anderson County in the fall.
