Bannock County commissioners approve proposed $111.3 million budget for publication, set public hearing
Summary
Bannock County commissioners voted to accept the commission—s proposed $111,283,260 budget and to publish it for a public hearing. Comptroller Chris Klauser said the final draft added $25,000 for veterans, $1 million for a building project and restructured juvenile probation staffing.
Bannock County commissioners voted unanimously by voice to accept the commission-proposed budget and to move forward with publication and a scheduled public hearing.
Comptroller Chris Klauser, presenting the final draft, said the only last-minute change was a $25,000 allocation for veterans and that the commission—s earlier plan to add $1,000,000 for a building project was included. "That leaves us a total budget of $111,283,260," Klauser said, and he noted departments would receive the funding spreadsheet showing their budget allocations.
A commissioner made the formal motion to approve the budget "as presented" and to proceed with publication and a public hearing; the Chair called for a voice vote and commissioners answered "Aye." The transcript records a voice vote and does not list individual roll-call votes.
The board discussed scheduling details: commissioners referred to "Tuesday the 25th" for publication timing and mentioned a probable hearing on the 5th at about 11:00 a.m. The Chair closed the item by praising staff: "Very, very good year. Appreciate everybody's help and comments on that, and, let's move forward."
