Staff reported Benson’s animal shelter is closed “temporarily until further notice” for cleanup, and the county may bill partner jurisdictions where services are provided. Miss Gilman and other staff said Lieutenant Chantau of the Cochise County Sheriff’s Office will be part of the multi-agency group addressing regional animal-control issues. The board was told a formal animal-shelter work session is planned for later in August to update the board and public on actions and options.

Staff said public engagement will be necessary as part of any long-term response because volunteers and community groups are active and passionate; the board asked staff to continue coordinating with municipal partners and the sheriff’s office and to return with a fuller plan at the August work session.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","20250731 Work Session Agenda Preview","oneSentenceSummary","County staff said they are working on animal-control and shelter issues, coordinating with the sheriff's office and the City of Douglas on intergovernmental agreements, and that an animal-shelter work session is planned for later in August.","taxTitle","Cochise County, Arizona","taxId",27859,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_46":80,"_48":81,"_50":82,"_52":83,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":84,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":85,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6147069,"Board to review fee schedule for manufactured-home inspections; fees will cover plan review and field inspections",68,828000,896000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5522362-2827729ac44ee49f45fbdd2879a9e680&start=828&end=896","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5522362-2827729ac44ee49f45fbdd2879a9e680/thumbnail_828000.jpg","/articles/6147069/Cochise-County/Arizona/Board-to-review-fee-schedule-for-manufactured-home-inspections-fees-will-cover-plan-review-and-field-inspections","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6147069-d3a22a1d759d244313d96a77727f4dab/orig.mp4?Expires=1771051867&Signature=TUoOxikVQDL~bbp51sYDPoRE7DAwqV3BXwgve4xlmVxzHTy~RpTd-ZepmEG3Q8akJEMG~54LMxI1Wgmkw6UFSvRJMPHzAzIqTgaXQ1XUzHoWEqNf~97ljGUA6IHaCdbsANq1uTFW0uDrlVgxuH6scW-Dk0zwaTb2WeODhovFmmcah3HLoygLRNNgHTRmXR0Jc~A9LCWQPKizr8z0lAsCgLF0FnP2g3zjz830unxXxe9ShxQ8mfaWq~duBQAiC6P2Nw3k0EjS2XjvC6IU8fgLtRq1LI83jABCCIYJX~3Hl4IJkvT111YNQzEKdlpn1pXf7X4eV5E0pKbXYI7c7GnFig__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Cochise County staff told supervisors July 31 they will present a resolution and an attached fee schedule for inspections of manufactured homes, mobile homes and factory-built buildings. Miss Gilman said the public hearing and a separate resolution adopting the fee schedule are on the agenda so the full schedule is available to the public.

Development services staff explained the fee applies to plan review and to inspections performed when the unit is installed: inspectors will review submitted plans, then visit the site after the unit is set on blocks, tied down and connected to utilities to verify the installation matches the plans. Staff said the proposed fees are intended to cover the county’s review and inspection effort.

The item will be presented at a public hearing where residents may comment and the board will consider adopting the fee schedule by resolution.","The county will present a resolution to adopt a development-services fee schedule specific to manufactured, mobile and factory-built building inspections; staff said fees cover plan review and on-site inspections after installation.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_46":92,"_48":93,"_50":94,"_52":95,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":96,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":97,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6147073,"Elections staff welcome voluntary Election Assistance Commission review of voting system and procedures",415,1096130,1511575,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5522362-2827729ac44ee49f45fbdd2879a9e680&start=1096&end=1511","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5522362-2827729ac44ee49f45fbdd2879a9e680/thumbnail_1096130.jpg","/articles/6147073/Cochise-County/Arizona/Elections-staff-welcome-voluntary-Election-Assistance-Commission-review-of-voting-system-and-procedures","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6147073-44d0c0068ce990a194a0a012b6265e01/orig.mp4?Expires=1771051867&Signature=VzTzXsoPKTSSX-WijmE2Ob9nZNpy0LKVCLhlrRWG26swMipZyeSzQv57yIh~4MNOw5XIfrgmmmpS44C7yZfmtTto28pZJ0bEAHPBqOl7EBDZ5hxIkR4J8LArV8oyRsShGeHy34KZqUp7tlXgkKDKWEs8HG-fCBE5LnNjvVZdCSmWz8vlrwxTyujWxavugk3I9bKUvBI4YUt4hlAy7N4nN0RPrrJtSHlQ8iRh8haEpe0xBZmFmYC5XmYlikYXws4g46r8j2wHtsLQlTJm0s0ejDNv57W6jPCnBULylE2J6F1QLNukSNIFmYAlCEG8x1V6A1dSgdv0NnT4bFpA0VolDA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Cochise County elections staff told supervisors July 31 they plan to invite the federal Election Assistance Commission (EAC) to perform a voluntary review of the county’s voting system configuration and facility procedures. Mary Antinari, representing elections, said the review team will confirm that certified software is installed and running, inspect physical and data security, and assess manufactured audit procedures and other processes.

Antinari described the visit as voluntary and without cost to the county; the EAC will produce a report of its findings and will follow a timeline once the county agrees to the review. Miss Gilman referred to the review as a useful step in giving the board additional information about the accreditation status and legal compliance of the county’s voting system.

Supervisor Gomez asked whether the county can clear debris or build channels on private property if residents give permission; staff replied the county generally cannot use public funds to alter drainage on private property or concentrate flows across an individual’s land.

Miss Gilman, County Administrator, and county flood-control staff explained that in many locations “the water is flowing exactly how he says” and that roads and roadside ditches are not designed as permanent drainage channels. County staff said they provide sandbags to residents for temporary protection but cannot spend public funds to construct channels across private land; long-term projects to capture or recharge runoff are possible but costly. Staff said such flood-control projects can be “a million dollar project” while the county has “about a million a year to spend,” limiting how many major projects the county can undertake.

Supervisors also discussed county-maintained roads versus private roads and planned public outreach. Staff noted county GIS maps list the roughly 1,400 miles the county maintains and that more than 3,000 miles are not maintained by the county; an interactive map also shows FEMA-mapped floodplains. The board directed staff to prepare information and to schedule a work session to present roads that could be added to or dropped from the county-maintained list and then to host a public meeting for residents to comment.

Staff emphasized options for residents who want road maintenance: form a road maintenance agreement with neighbors, hire private contractors, or establish a road district that levies local taxes. The board discussed putting clearer disclosure language in real-estate transactions and working with local real-estate stakeholders so prospective buyers understand when a road is not county maintained.","The board discussed repeated constituent calls about flooding on private-property-adjacent roads, county limitations on working on private property, sandbag distribution, and a planned road work session and public meeting to review which roads are maintained by the county.",{"_33":111,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":112,"_41":113,"_43":114,"_45":115,"_46":116,"_48":117,"_50":118,"_52":119,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":120,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":121,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6147083,"Supervisors schedule vote on up to $130 million jail project; MOU with Arizona Complete Health to coordinate post-release care",103,408000,511000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5522362-2827729ac44ee49f45fbdd2879a9e680&start=408&end=511","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5522362-2827729ac44ee49f45fbdd2879a9e680/thumbnail_408000.jpg","/articles/6147083/Cochise-County/Arizona/Supervisors-schedule-vote-on-up-to-130-million-jail-project-MOU-with-Arizona-Complete-Health-to-coordinate-post-release-care","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6147083-fafd288f2e3fd8ee9b9983f9220d76d0/orig.mp4?Expires=1771051867&Signature=HaOHJXaWtxRR5AmOcHL8tuk7HGgbdKRtzPkrY2og3C~5--zJDbnFAnSNUu0YeKWfXLNjQ1da8nN5wEGESm9cOtI~NPgyLaBc4H9Bc9SS0ruy0YhRm0QxFNL~7R9NrjhmdXCQqYG2NBxJOAJVhNzyMBqpxttno8uddSyCcDh1HGmErmyO3kkdCW0u3LzrB9EGw4B5c3J3TdxdXMeX~UengNRZPX6vue6AKEACHIJDdA19qzmGuNgLZw6Y5WQRsq7GTagCq8rJfN-GFHLRuROulx46GKiOKyLg2oDOIlHkbGAAyytd~ZYCcmtvBcK9OjKS13s0eb179ZnPF0eJQhNLOQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Cochise County Board of Supervisors was briefed July 31 on a proposed budget and associated actions for a new county jail and on a separate memorandum of understanding to share health-related data to improve continuity of care for people entering and leaving custody. County staff placed a design, engineering and construction budget for the jail on the agenda “in a not to exceed amount of $130,000,000,” and said the board will consider that budget by formal vote before a planned publicity pamphlet is distributed. Miss Gilman, County Administrator, said the board should reach consensus through a vote before the pamphlet is published.

The matter is before the board as part of the jail district agenda. Miss Gilman said terms of the construction contract are still being finalized and expected “by the second meeting in August,” identifying the regular Aug. 19 meeting as the target to present contract terms. The jail district also has public hearings scheduled on the continued establishment of the jail district; staff explained a separate resolution ordering continued establishment will follow that hearing.

Separately, Megan Kennedy, county staff, described a memorandum of understanding with Arizona Complete Health and the Cochise County Sheriff’s Office that the county will ask the board to approve at an upcoming meeting. Kennedy said the MOU would create a data-sharing arrangement “with no cost exchange,” allowing Arizona Complete Health and the sheriff’s office to “jointly establish systems and timely data exchange” to coordinate care when people are booked into the jail and when they are released. Kennedy said the agreement is intended to let health providers know, for example, when a client missed an appointment because they were incarcerated and to restore continuity of care after release.

The board discussed sequencing the items: the budget vote is being placed before publicity for the jail project, and staff said contract terms and the MOU would be presented at upcoming meetings. No formal motions or votes on the budget, contract or MOU were recorded during the work session; staff listed the items for action on the next regular meeting agendas.

Background: staff framed the budget placement as following prior discussions about the jail district and recent litigation and settlement related to the district’s establishment. The public hearing and subsequent resolution on continuing the jail district are being scheduled under legal guidance so the board formally recognizes the district before related mailings or ballots are finalized.

Questions remaining include final contract terms and the timing of formal board action. The board will take formal action on these items at upcoming public meetings where votes will be recorded.","Cochise County staff placed a not-to-exceed $130,000,000 budget for a new jail on the agenda and said the board will consider a memorandum of understanding with Arizona Complete Health to share data for continuity of care for people booked into and released from the county jail.","actionData","errors"]
