County manager asked for authorization for public-health employees to drive county vehicles to the CRIC training in Billings (April 19–22); the commission approved the request by voice vote after a motion from a commissioner.

Sheridan County managers asked the board to authorize county vehicles for public-health employees who will attend an out-of-state training in Billings April 19–22.

Heidi Smith (speaker 9) described the CRIC conference as a human-trafficking awareness training for public-health staff and said travel and lodging can be reimbursed through a public-health infrastructure grant or a workforce grant, while meals will come from the agency's travel budget. "It is April 19 through the 22nd," she said. The board member (speaker 2) moved to approve the request to allow public-health staff to use a county vehicle for the trip; another commissioner seconded and the motion passed on a voice vote.

Commissioners requested that the motion be captured in the minutes as written authorization for insurance purposes. Staff said the written motion in the minutes constitutes the required authorization for out-of-state use of county vehicles.
