Following an executive session about Thousand Springs and related legal matters, the Board directed Prosecuting Attorney True Pearce to draft and send a letter to Vincent Lera informing him that certain subdivision splits are not legal; Pearce said he will draft the letter for commissioners' approval and have Planning & Zoning record it.
After an executive session called under Idaho Code, the Washington County Board of Commissioners directed the prosecuting attorney to draft a letter to a property owner informing him that his subdivision splits are not legal.
The Board voted unanimously at 11:13 a.m. to go into executive session under I.C. 74‑206(1)(f) to consult with legal counsel about the legal ramifications of potential litigation related to Thousand Springs and related matters; Bridget Felmley (Planning & Zoning), Debbie Moxley‑Potter (Assessor) and cartographer Niki Houser remained in the session. The Board returned to open session at 12:07 p.m., and Harberd said, “No final action or decision was made during executive session.”
Following the executive session, Commissioner Jim Harberd moved, and Commissioner Gordon Wilkerson seconded, a motion directing the Prosecuting Attorney to write a letter to Vincent Lera stating that his subdivision splits are not legal. Pearce said he would draft the letter, seek commissioners' approval, have the P&Z Office send it and record the action.
Next steps: Pearce will draft the letter and present it to the commissioners for approval; P&Z will record the letter once signed.
