The Teton County Board of Commissioners approved a facilities-use agreement with Teton Science Schools for an in-person event on April 16, 2025 at a cost of $5,300.
Charlotte Fry, regional transportation planning administrator, told the commission the county solicited multiple locations and selected Teton Science Schools for cost and the ability to host lunch on-site for out-of-town attendees. Fry also said an attachment referenced in the staff report had not been included in the packet and was being provided to the record at the meeting.
County staff noted the contract to be signed contains one modification: section 9 (insurance requirement) was edited on legal advice to reflect the county's liability limit under state statute. "Attorney Gengrey recommended a change, and we have modified section 9... under state statute, the county is only liable for up to 250,000," Fry said. The version with that modification was available to sign.
Nut graf: The commission voted without discussion after a motion and second. The approval covers the $5,300 facilities-use fee for the April 16, 2025 meeting and accepts the legally modified insurance clause described in the record.
Action: Commissioner Mac moved to approve the facilities-use agreement; a second was recorded. Chair Newcomb called the vote and the motion carried unanimously.
Ending: The contract with the modified insurance language was noted as the version to be signed; no further conditions were recorded in the transcript.
