Summary
Commissioner Christensen moved and the board unanimously approved payment of $81,206.73 in claims and $265,064.53 in payroll and approved surplus-sale outcomes; Treasurer Diane Crawford said two 2008-delinquent parcels will be subject to tax deed April 9, 2012 at 2:00 p.m.
At the March 26 meeting, the Caribou County Board of Commissioners approved payment of county claims and payroll and recorded results of a courthouse surplus sale.
Commissioner Christensen moved to pay claims totaling $81,206.73 and payroll claims totaling $265,064.53 and to approve the March 12, 2012 meeting minutes as amended. Commissioner Earl Somsen seconded the motion. Chairman Lloyd Rasmussen, Commissioner Christensen and Commissioner Somsen each voted "yes." The motion carried unanimously.
Treasurer Diane Crawford presented two parcels that will be subject to tax deed action for 2008 delinquent taxes. Crawford said the affidavit would be filed March 26, 2012 and the tax deed would be taken April 9, 2012 at 2:00 p.m.
Jordan Bodily reported results of a silent-bid surplus sale for courthouse and grounds items. Successful bids included RaeAnn Prescott (Item 5, $20.51) and Sharon Wells (several furniture items, including a cloth couch for $25.00). Unbid items will be donated to Senior Citizens.
Why it matters: The payments close the county's immediate claims cycle and set in motion a tax-deed process that may transfer title for delinquent parcels. Surplus-sale results record disposition of county property.
What happens next: The county will file the tax-deed affidavit and proceed with the tax-deed process on April 9, 2012; routine claims and payroll disbursements were approved at the meeting.
