Budget money has plummeted over the years, from over $103,000 to just $53,000.Fortunately, the two-person staff in the Ponca City location will not lose their positions. They will be relocated back to the Newkirk office.Thornton believes this is the best move for the county as a whole. The last day of business will be June 23rd.
