Commission approves $8,500 purchase for regional rescue training and accepts cash summary
Summary
Daggett County Commissioners approved an $8,500 purchase request to a regional rescue vendor for a 20-person training class (grant covers $5,000; remainder billed to participants) and accepted cash summary and accounts receivable reports dated March 7, 2025.
At the March 7, 2025 Daggett County Commission meeting, commissioners voted to approve a purchase request of $8,500 to engage a regional rescue training vendor and also voted to accept the county cash summary and accounts receivable report as of March 7, 2025.
A county representative said a regional class limited to 20 people was arranged through a company identified in the record as Magic Valley Rescue Team and that a federal SHSP grant would pay $5,000 toward the total cost. The representative described the total class cost as about $8,500 and said the remaining roughly $3,500 would be invoiced back to participating entities and split by attendees — the presenter estimated a per‑person share in the neighborhood of $170 once the grant share was applied.
The presenter said the county would cover the $8,500 upfront and then invoice other participating entities for their shares after the class occurs. The record lists participants from other jurisdictions and local search-and-rescue personnel; Dutch John firefighters and members of the county search-and-rescue team were discussed as likely participants.
The purchase request identified vendor Chad Smith of Magic Valley Rescue Team and listed the funding source as Fund 30 (online security). A motion to approve the purchase request was made and seconded; the commission carried the motion on a voice vote with members responding “Aye.” The minutes show no recorded opposing votes.
Later in the meeting a motion to accept the cash summary for all bank accounts and the accounts receivable report as of March 7, 2025, was made and seconded; the commission carried that motion by voice vote as well.
