Summary

Box Elder County approved Resolution 25-17 authorizing attorney Tom Peters to represent the county and file a cross appeal in the Pacific Corp centrally assessed tax dispute so the county can participate in the case.

County Attorney Steve Hadfield explained that Pacific Corp filed an appeal to the state tax commission over centrally assessed taxes and that the county's counsel (Tom Peters) needs a formal authorization to represent the county and file a cross appeal so the county can participate. "He needs an ordinance saying that he's authorized to represent us on that to file a cross appeal," Hadfield said.

Commissioner Perry moved to approve Resolution 25-17 authorizing the filing of a cross appeal on behalf of Box Elder County; a commissioner seconded and the motion passed with unanimous 'Aye' votes. The authorization enables the county to engage in the state tax commission appeal process rather than remaining a bystander.
