The Gooding County Board of County Commissioners on Jan. 5 adopted Resolution No. 2026-01-05 to grant two additional paid holidays to county employees for the 2025 calendar year, covering December 24 and December 26, 2025. Commissioner Vern Eames moved to approve the resolution and Commissioner Ron Buhler seconded; the motion carried.
The resolution cites a Dec. 18, 2025 presidential executive order and a Dec. 22, 2025 gubernatorial executive order, as well as an Order of the Idaho Supreme Court dated Dec. 23, 2025, as the context for the action. The county’s resolution specifies that eligible Gooding County law enforcement and emergency medical services employees will receive a two-day equivalent increase in paid time off totaling 17 hours to account for those holidays when shift coverage prevented observing the dates.
