The board voted to approve two indigent cremation assistance applications (case numbers 20250027 and 20250028) and to release an associated lien after a nursing‑home bill in one case was paid. Commissioners also approved a federal reimbursement request for the Lava Ranches fuel‑reduction project and accepted a master service agreement signature for Clean Harbors, which county staff said lowers hazardous‑waste disposal rates and caps future annual increases.

The board approved a resolution authorizing spring breakup weight limits for county roads, with exemptions for emergency vehicles and critical services; county staff said enforcement will be coordinated with the Idaho State Police and the Bannock County Sheriff's Office. Commissioners authorized a contract with the sheriff's office to provide law enforcement at Pocatello Downs for the racing season, approved facility‑use agreements for community events including the Field of Heroes display, and adopted procurement guidance allowing departments to use preapproved rental vendors for emergencies.

The board also accepted indirect administrative funds from a domestic violence grant and approved using $3,285 to send a domestic violence coordinator to the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts conference; the motion included signing the grant Memorandum of Understanding that dated to the 2023 award. Commissioners approved two resolutions (2025-22, tax cancellations; and 2025-23, disposal of surplus property) and adopted the consent agenda, which included routine invoices, licenses and salary approvals.

On the FY2026 budget calendar, county staff proposed distributing budget worksheets April 18, department meetings in mid‑June, a clerk's recommendation to the commission on July 21 and a tentative budget hearing on Aug. 26 at 11 a.m.; the board agreed to publish the hearing notice subject to final room availability.

Commissioners recessed the meeting for 10 a.m.; staff later announced upcoming amphitheater events.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","03/18/2025 Bannock County Commissioners Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","Bannock County commissioners met Tuesday, March 18, and unanimously approved a range of routine administrative items, contracts and reimbursements while setting a proposed timeline for the FY2026 budget process.","taxTitle","Bannock County, Idaho","taxId",5618,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":79,"_47":80,"_49":81,"_51":82,"_53":83,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":84,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":85,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6632610,"County facilities director reports progress on annex, fairgrounds and security upgrades",0,318000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2671453-545a28e874fb1031cd94e2be24c214d6&start=318&end=318","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2671453-545a28e874fb1031cd94e2be24c214d6/thumbnail_318000.jpg","/articles/6632610/Bannock-County/Idaho/County-facilities-director-reports-progress-on-annex-fairgrounds-and-security-upgrades","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6632610-e9ce2f6d8858cbcf4d5a4232158bdb39/orig.mp4?Expires=1771137986&Signature=NlG0e05xZiumpBfEVowvKS0ADxrou6A2MEY1JdPJPLdqsRbpVjTLVPz-ZHXl37tlBiCZQ-BMiwWk58B1NlJDXWVZyDdjixIwpZaYYW975q8AYIcQo0UCVihri6dwAr8bJTWljU7hK3XjA1BTBcauGafrOxpZh3KiNcwGXnk1eJUwpaeAJZ5yNe-7MGLpWqFEF9M0BMOl2v7gY2I42Bvb74Tc7L9Kik0xVj99Vph6tGomdivVhlPZ3lXRPjrndaK~6Rur2316mdttU~hmp9w7sow2-0qtffPmaU6H1dQSKrtKpiFYv25G~x8LBMVGXXGWyUs0nxCau5sner7LNHhxzg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Dan Kendall, Bannock County facilities director, gave a monthly update on March 18 covering progress at several county properties. He reported the annex is expected to be completed in April after HVAC work finishes; courtroom and arraignment relocations to the second and third floors are done. Kendall said demolition of judge chambers has begun and audio‑visual equipment has been ordered.

At the fairgrounds, Kendall said underground utilities at the new YDC building are complete and crews planned to pour concrete once the frost is removed; he credited Road and Bridge for hauling rock fill. New boilers for the complex are in Pocatello and are scheduled for installation when the existing boilers are taken offline.

Kendall addressed security upgrades: metal detector installation at an entry will be coordinated with ADA access requirements and locksmith work to integrate remotes and maglocks. He said the detector fits the intended entrance and staff will use hand‑wands and alternate routes for oversized wheelchairs if necessary. Landscaping and signage timelines were also discussed; sod and final planting are expected in April.","Facilities Director Dan Kendall briefed commissioners on multiple county building projects including annex HVAC completion, courtroom moves, fairgrounds YDC building progress, new boilers and planned metal detector installation.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":78,"_43":89,"_45":89,"_47":90,"_49":91,"_51":92,"_53":93,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":94,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":95,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6632615,"Bannock County Juvenile Justice to apply for Idaho Office of Drug Policy grant for prevention programs",201000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2671453-545a28e874fb1031cd94e2be24c214d6&start=201&end=201","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2671453-545a28e874fb1031cd94e2be24c214d6/thumbnail_201000.jpg","/articles/6632615/Bannock-County/Idaho/Bannock-County-Juvenile-Justice-to-apply-for-Idaho-Office-of-Drug-Policy-grant-for-prevention-programs","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6632615-83923e42a6b65b469e320d16c3fe301c/orig.mp4?Expires=1771137986&Signature=MOZe-5WN8TMksOi3lx5mOwKlh9kX9JF~J4oOD6RDv6jIFgCS3w-GXsBEiJXcLx06XaeHm3XAT3dvjwJ-TfL5DrDnQDOTx~sxzYMu7rZ2wDmFd0M7HGRmGfAuyfGEt8V~YyCXfFDJZNI4e-Hucw61YRe4KoAMpLcQCYXGC989yyjPimgtHtEth5xpQ-1YjeOpIxB6tpgeGiAW3Jl7vP8gwl4j2PR4csZgcC0mHZl5iwBpwDrjSP6wnCFo4DYAt0bNtkoEEqajXq-oy7S6J3YMS-Fq4cNoNzO23hilEz~GBdzSO1~U7aXBYc5n7ZXGmGRG86P~1E08mqN8m3-KvD5hzw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Todd Manger, representing Bannock County Juvenile Justice, told commissioners on March 18 that staff will apply for the Idaho Office of Drug Policy state fiscal year 2026 substance use prevention, treatment and recovery services block grant. The request totals $7,326.26 and would fund Families in Action cohorts and support Teens in Action classes at Marsh Valley.

Manger said the county requested a smaller total than in prior years because remaining program materials (books) and available interns will reduce costs for Teens in Action; the application will focus funding on Families in Action cohorts. Commissioners unanimously approved submitting the grant application.

If awarded, county staff said the funds would support prevention programming led by Juvenile Justice staff and interns; no further allocation decisions were made at the meeting.","Bannock County Juvenile Justice sought and received commission approval to apply for a 2026 Idaho Office of Drug Policy block grant to support Families in Action and Teens in Action programming, requesting $7,326.26.","actionData","errors"]
