Tribune editorial: Burleigh County continues to be a soap opera

​

Mar 23, 2025

Drama continues to swirl in Burleigh County government. Public hearings continue on a controversial proposal to make the auditor/treasurer position appointed rather than elected. That stems from discord between the County Commission and Auditor/Treasurer Mark Splonskowski. The latest developments there include disagreement over why it took about half a year for the county's 2025 budget to be posted online, and either confusion or incompetence that led to the county not sending income tax forms to 2024 election workers on time.
