Two North Bonneville councilmembers resign amid disputes over vouchers and treatment
Summary
Councilmembers Taurus Baxter and Joshua Good resigned during the Feb. 10 meeting after raising concerns about council direction and voucher accuracy; Good cited perceived personal attacks and a State Auditor finding about PTO overages. Council accepted the resignations; no follow-up appointment action was recorded.
Two North Bonneville councilmembers resigned during the council’s Feb. 10, 2026 meeting, according to the meeting minutes.
Councilmember Taurus Baxter told colleagues he enjoyed working with the council and the public but that “things are going in the wrong direction,” and the minutes record that he resigned effective immediately and left the meeting at 7:13 p.m. Later in the meeting Councilmember Joshua Good said he had lost confidence in the voucher packets and described being treated unfairly; the minutes state Good then resigned from the council.
The resignations were recorded in the meeting minutes but the record does not specify any immediate steps the council took to fill those vacancies. Councilmember Emily Sabo thanked Joshua Good for his service during closing comments; Councilmember Mary Helms expressed disappointment about community conduct surrounding the recent mayoral election.
The minutes show the departures occurred amid broader disagreement about financial packet accuracy and personnel matters; the council did not take additional personnel action on the resignations during the meeting.
