Administrator: Bug Tussel has not drawn county funds; $7,000 engineering bill to be signed
Summary
Price County Administrator reported Bug Tussel has not yet drawn funds from a county-held account for a proposed tower project; a $7,000 engineering bill from 2024 was submitted and will be signed, and a meeting with Bug Tussel leadership is being scheduled.
County Administrator Nick Trimner told the Executive Committee that Bug Tussel has not drawn any Price County funds for the planned tower project to date and that minimal work has occurred. The county holds what the minutes describe as a $15 million account associated with the project; Bug Tussel submitted a $7,000 bill for 2024 engineering costs and project review that Trimner will sign to authorize payment.
Trimner said meetings with the Bug Tussel CEO and company representatives are being arranged to provide updates. Supervisors discussed whether to proceed with the project and noted the broader county need for additional radio towers to support the Sheriff’s Department, fire services, emergency management and other infrastructure. The committee agreed to address the topic at the Feb. 17 County Board meeting for further consideration.
