Humboldt board discusses after-hours on-call arrangement with City of Crooks, makes no decision
Summary
Representatives from Crooks asked Humboldt staff to provide after-hours on-call coverage for Crooks; the board did not decide because compensation, insurance and qualification differences remained unresolved.
The Humboldt Natural Gas Board discussed a proposal from the City of Crooks for after-hours on-call coverage but made no decision at its March 18 meeting.
Tobias Shantz, Jason Penning and Chris Krogmann — identified in the minutes as attendees from the City of Crooks — presented the request that Humboldt staff (specifically Mike Beaner and Eugene Betz) be on call after hours for Crooks. Board members raised outstanding issues around compensation, insurance exposure and differing qualifications between the two utilities, and the minutes record that "no decision was made" at the meeting.
The discussion did not include a formal motion or vote. The board recorded the topic for further consideration; no timelines or next steps were specified in the minutes. The matter may return to a future agenda once staff and Crooks officials clarify liability, pay and credentialing requirements.
