The Page County board scheduled a public hearing on the proposed tax notice for Tuesday, April 1 at 4:15 p.m., approved February meeting minutes and granted use of the courthouse grounds for a Cowboy Church event on June 22 at 2 p.m.
Board members discussed the county budget timeline, noting a submission deadline related to House File 718 and that staff would be working with the Department of Management file upload process. Kristen (staff member) said she would handle House File 718 submissions the next day and that municipalities and a school had been contacted about the budget deadline. The board discussed finalizing equipment purchases, including a truck tied to a state contract, and said they would confirm funding transfers and amounts with Lisa and Michelle before finalizing the budget.
The board heard that earlier issues with assessor publication had been resolved and that a different mailing company will be used this year; staff said they hoped the vendor’s systems were stable. The board also noted that Kristen will confirm transfer amounts so that rural/basic line items are correct before completing the budget.
