Board extends and directs amendment of emergency declaration tied to wildlife impacts
Summary
The board voted to extend an emergency declaration linked to wildlife impacts (transcript mentions wolves and livestock), and directed staff to bring back amended resolution language with a shorter (30-day) return timeline for board review.
The board considered a status check on an existing emergency declaration related to wildlife impacts. A board member urged that the declaration be updated and amended to reflect the ongoing crisis the county faces; the discussion included references in the transcript to wolves and impacts on livestock and local communities.
County Administrator Angela Davis said staff would draft amendments and could include a 30-day return timeline in an updated resolution. Following discussion, a supervisor moved to extend the current emergency declaration pending the amended resolution; the motion was seconded and carried in roll-call vote, and staff were directed to return with revised language before the extension expires.
