Summary

Lincoln County staff reported public support for redetermination of CD #37 and proposed including CD #20, CD #41, CD #50, JD #22 and JD #32 in a consolidated hearing to reduce costs; the board agreed by consensus to proceed and use Rinke Noonan for documentation.

Lincoln County Environmental Administrator Dustin Hauschild told the board that a recent public information meeting on County Ditch (CD) #37 indicated public consensus to proceed with redetermination. Hauschild proposed adding several smaller ditch systems (CD #20, CD #41, CD #50, JD #22 and JD #32) into the same proceeding to save money and recommended retaining the law firm Rinke Noonan to prepare required documents.

The board indicated consensus to move ahead with setting the hearing, issuing notices and engaging Rinke Noonan for assistance. Hauschild also said he has contacted H2Oviewers to obtain pricing for remote viewing of the redetermination hearing and will report back when pricing is available.
