Commission directs attorneys to draft cemetery‑board resolution, discusses buying two small cemeteries
Summary
Commissioners asked the county attorney to draft a cemetery board resolution and discussed using restricted YRRE funds to purchase two small cemeteries from Arrowhead School; staff said an invoice indicated a combined purchase price of $5,500 for each cemetery and further budgeting steps were needed.
A county board member presented documents and an invoice showing Arrowhead School had posted sales for two small local cemeteries (Chico and Immigrant) and asked the county to consider buying them using YRRE funds restricted to cemeteries and trails. The presenter said an invoice listed a price of $5,500 (per cemetery) and recommended the county attorney draft a cemetery‑board resolution to enable the county to proceed with purchase paperwork and title work.
Commissioners and staff discussed whether the purchase and use of YRRE funds needed a specific agenda item and budget entry; county staff said restrictions on the funds required adding the proposed purchase to the budget process. Commissioner (speaker 7) moved that the attorney's office draft the cemetery board resolution and the motion carried. "It's only $5,500 too," the board member said when describing the invoice for the parcels.
