Commissioners approve annual dues, invoices and create a county attorney investigator/compliance officer position
Summary
Commissioners approved recurring PILT claims (membership dues and stewardship organization support), paid legal invoices related to ongoing litigation, and moved to create and fund a new county attorney investigator/compliance officer position for the first year.
At the start of the meeting commissioners cleared a series of routine administrative items and bills and approved creation of a new county attorney investigator/compliance officer position.
The board approved routine PILT (Payments in Lieu of Taxes) claims including annual membership dues to the Wood Products Association ($292) and $500 to the Forest Stewardship Foundation. A consulting invoice for Richard Stem was presented and tabled for further discussion at a future meeting. Commissioners approved an invoice from law firm Jackson, Berto & Grant related to the county’s ongoing selenium litigation.
A motion was made to authorize a new county attorney investigator and compliance officer position; the meeting record shows budgeted first-year funding and supportive comments from commissioners about the position’s value for county compliance work. The transcript records the position approval by voice vote; no individual roll-call of votes for each item appears in the record provided.
Commissioners also approved the preliminary plat for the Sunday Creek Ranch subdivision, subject to standard conditions, and approved other routine vendor invoices submitted at the meeting.
