SB 1366

SB 1366 - This act provides that the county treasurer's signature shall be the only signature authorized or permitted on any bank signature card, deposit agreement, or other authorization document for any account maintained in a county depositary for county funds under the treasurer's custody. No other county official or employee shall be authorized or required to be listed as a signer on any such account. This act is identical to HB 3120 (2026), and is similar to SB 810 (2025).

Bill Summary · SB 1366

Legislative bill overview

SB 1366 modifies provisions governing county treasurers in Missouri, though specific modifications are not detailed in the available information. The bill was prefiled in December 2025 and received its first reading in early January 2026. Without access to the bill's text or detailed amendments, the precise nature of these modifications cannot be determined.

Why is this important

County treasurers manage public funds, handle tax collections, and maintain financial records for county governments. Any modifications to their duties, powers, or operational requirements could affect how counties manage taxpayer money and local government finances. Changes to treasurer provisions can impact transparency, accountability, and administrative efficiency at the county level.

Potential points of contention

  • Scope unclear - Without the bill text, it's impossible to identify whether changes expand treasurer powers, restrict them, or alter financial responsibilities in ways that might face local opposition
  • County autonomy - Treasurers operate across Missouri's 114 counties with varying sizes and needs; statewide modifications may not suit all county contexts equally
  • Implementation costs - Depending on modifications, counties may face unfunded mandates to restructure offices, update systems, or change procedures
