Board authorizes settlement in DSS Uniter LLC tax valuation appeal
Summary
Following legal advice in executive session, the board unanimously authorized county legal counsel to enter into a settlement in a tax valuation appeal involving DSS Uniter LLC (case TX2025‑000177).
After returning from executive session the Coconino County Board of Supervisors on Aug. 19 authorized county legal counsel to enter into a settlement in an active tax valuation appeal brought by DSS Uniter LLC.
The board heard legal advice in executive session on item 1 (DSS Uniter LLC, case TX2025‑000177). In open session the chair asked for a motion to authorize counsel to sign the settlement agreement. A motion and second were made and the board voted unanimously to give legal counsel authority to enter the settlement.
Why this matters: The action resolves county exposure in a pending valuation appeal and allows counsel to finalize settlement terms; the board did not discuss specific financial terms in open session.
What happened at the meeting: The board moved into executive session for legal advice on the case under Arizona law. After the executive session the board conducted a brief open‑session action on the matter and voted to authorize counsel to execute the settlement. The motion carried by unanimous voice vote.
Officials and attribution: Chair Patrice Horstman introduced the action and asked for the motion. The transcript records the motion and the unanimous affirmative voice vote; no boardmember roll call was recorded in the transcript.
