Crystal said there was a “quite a space” in cost between the apparent winner and the second-place bidder and staff wanted the vendor to verify their proposal before the county recommended award. Commissioners agreed to defer discussion to after the 10:00 a.m. bid opening or to the next meeting if verification was not received.

On the claims agenda, staff reported an unexpected invoice from Direct Communications to run fiber and for annual maintenance at the YDC Building totaling $10,380. A county official said that annual maintenance of $5,600 had not been budgeted by the YDC and that the county could code and pay the invoice from PILT funds; commissioners approved adding the invoice to the claims and paying it. County staff said they would seek reimbursement if appropriate and would track remaining ARPA obligations and outstanding invoices for the YDC and Exhibit Hall projects.

A commissioner moved to approve adding the invoice and to approve items on the consent agenda; commissioners voted “aye” and approved the consent agenda and payments reported.

A commissioner moved that the board approve and sign the LT‑2 forms as presented. Commissioners voted “aye” and approved the action. Clasner will obtain the chairman’s signature and proceed with filing as required by county procedure.

Heinez told commissioners two parcels at Lookout Point — and two others now owned by the city — had outstanding back taxes but that ownership had transferred to the city via warranty deed and that nonprofit ownership histories complicated prior exemptions.

Heinez said she had discussed the status with county staff and recommended moving forward with tax cancellations for the years discussed. A commissioner moved to accept the assessor’s recommendation to cancel the taxes (years cited in the meeting included 2022, 2023 and 2024); commissioners voted “aye” and approved the motion.

The board did not discuss parcel numbers or the transaction details in the portion of the meeting provided; a commissioner said parcel numbers would be added to the record in a subsequent motion.

Evans said the county is preparing a hazardous-waste section of the landfill for pesticides and herbicides collected through the county’s program and will participate in an Idaho State Department of Agriculture (ISDA) free collection program. He estimated the avoided cost if the county had contracted private disposal would be “in the ballpark of, like, 8 to $10,000.”

On the Pine Ridge Mall site, Evans said the county’s fee waiver arrangement has yielded about $107,000 in diverted or reduced fees so far and he expects “another load or 2” as contractors complete demolition. He asked the board to define when the demolition phase ends so the county can determine whether incoming material is still part of demolition (eligible under the waiver) or becomes construction-site material that should be charged. Evans said the county limited reuse to a single approved contractor to reduce ambiguity on which loads qualified for the waiver.

Evans described a large inventory of screened compost at the landfill and said the county could optimize turnover by occasionally renting or acquiring additional equipment (screeners or turners) to process material faster. He estimated the pile represents roughly “2 to 3 years worth of sale products” at current sales rates.

On capital projects and revenues, Evans said the county planned a bid opening for the scale house and expects bid results to come in below internal estimates. He also reported that energy-credit markets have softened: “they kind of have fallen out quite a bit,” he said, and noted the county holds roughly 20,000 of one type of credit and 12,000 of another; market prices discussed were roughly $1 to $5 per credit. Evans said the county intends to negotiate to move what it can now rather than hold while prices remain low.

Commissioners asked follow-up questions about contract end dates and timelines; Evans said staff will reach out to contractors and municipal partners to fix a date for demolition completion. No formal board action was recorded on the operational updates; the briefing was informational.","Landfill manager Dylan Evans briefed the board on hazardous-waste disposal via an Idaho State Department of Agriculture program, the Pine Ridge Mall demolition waste accounting, compost volume, bid openings for the scale house, and efforts to sell energy credits and recyclables.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6476848,"Bannock County waives fairground bleacher fees for Marsh Valley events and community nativity program",371,50255,421865,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5716571-627d109e5b47b11d854ff2a248f8ee31&start=50&end=421","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5716571-627d109e5b47b11d854ff2a248f8ee31/thumbnail_50255.jpg","/articles/6476848/Bannock-County/Idaho/Bannock-County-waives-fairground-bleacher-fees-for-Marsh-Valley-events-and-community-nativity-program","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6476848-b13ebeddbdb8933b7345911bc52b2093/orig.mp4?Expires=1770394296&Signature=Huy1z46MDpZL-VbriK7fYTeKvml6g6MoU~~QN8a58f1OB6wMOp1LWcawGeaH83g6~WLj7-QICPUKB2Izm6zVAY0RcI7s7aYtSrCOr-4EF-gRG79Og7xV~Ek3ZuS20N9RIilTyM3F~JiT9kiMmg5C1U~eDxLEvKwzzlao~tJJRMeRGsrM0d20fgcylaqKZCAr913tTeGJQLZWJ0uRvqqfEcmXH1-71F8468hi1oFitpCTtZzKgPHdiBcJoGTi6ngLOg3e22TiVYXWaxhOrxX2JkudpaE-N~ITMLm4FsrBG57tCLFxG8XR1Gpodvn6~pbL2IPMFENvcSu9n7RqwgodTA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Bannock County commissioners approved waivers or reduced rental fees for two users of the county fairgrounds’ portable bleachers: the Marsh Valley School District’s football program and a community nativity program in the city of Irmo.

Jamie Pearson, Fair Work coordinator, introduced the requests and said Marsh Valley High School needs bleachers for six games this season. Kent Hill of Marsh Valley High School said, “They have 6 games this year. So $600 a day would be a waiver of $3,600.” Pearson and Alex Hauser of the fairgrounds described logistics: the fairgrounds will transport and set the bleachers and leave one set in place for the duration of a school series, and two other sets remain available for other events.

The county discussed prior use and community benefit. Bill Johns, who said he serves as chairman of the Marsh Valley School Board, confirmed the district used the bleachers last year and sought expanded use this season for one event. County commissioners asked whether transportation would be provided; Alex Hauser, Fairgrounds staff, said the round trip is “a little under 12 miles” and takes about 45 minutes.

A commissioner moved to approve the reduced/waived fee for the Marsh Valley School District; commissioners voted “aye” and approved the request. The board later moved and approved a similar waiver for the community nativity program in Irmo, with fairgrounds staff handling transport and setup.

The approvals included no recorded conditions for repayment. County staff acknowledged they will coordinate logistics and communications with the school district and community group and requested acknowledgment in event programs when feasible.

Commissioners made no policy change to rental rates; the actions were limited to the specific fee waivers requested for the events presented to the board.","The county approved waivers or reduced fees to let Marsh Valley School and a community nativity program use sets of fairground bleachers, with county staff to transport the equipment; commissioners voted approval after presentations from school and fair officials.","actionData","errors"]
