Representatives from Idaho’s congressional offices—Mike Matthews (Deputy Chief of Staff for Senator Risch), Samantha Marshall (Regional Director for Senator Crapo), and Jessica Hammond (Regional Director for Congressman Simpson)—visited the Gooding County commission meeting on March 16 to explain their roles and activities. The delegates spoke with county officials; the record shows no formal policy action resulting from the visit.
During public comment, EMS Director John Kepler reported that a new ambulance was delivered the previous week and that radios and stretchers were being transferred into it; Gooding Fire District has expressed interest in buying the old Dodge ambulance but no price was discussed. Sara Berling from Human Resources reported a payroll issue this week that she is working to resolve with PERSI. Commissioner Bolduc relayed that SIRCOMM received a threat several days earlier, in which someone said they would burn the building down, and authorities are investigating.
