Bannock County approves indigent cremation aid for case 20250051
Summary
Commissioners approved a $1,200 cremation-assistance application for case 20250051 and accepted a $25-per-month repayment plan from the applicant.
Shantel Laulu, indigent services specialist, presented application case number 20250051 on Sept. 30, asking the board to approve $1,200 to cover cremation expenses for a deceased Bennett County resident.
The applicant, a 69-year-old woman, is not a Bannock County resident but is seeking assistance for her son; Laulu said the deceased "meets criteria to be eligible for assistance through the indigent program," and the applicant agreed to a $25-per-month repayment plan if approved.
Commission discussion was brief. A commissioner moved to approve the case and the board voted by voice, with the chair calling for “aye.” The motion passed by voice vote; the meeting transcript does not record a roll-call tally.
The decision authorizes payment of $1,200 for cremation expenses and records an applicant repayment plan of $25 per month.
