Commission OKs dump-fee waiver for tractor show; staff previews comp plan and auditor search
Summary
The board approved waiving dump fees for the Power of the Past tractor show, and county staff said they will begin staff-level discussions on a comprehensive-plan update and research replacement auditors ahead of 2027 work.
County staff relayed a request from Power of the Past tractor-show organizers to waive dump fees for the event; a commissioner moved to approve the request, it was seconded, and the board approved the waiver by voice vote.
County administration said its focus is shifting to other priorities after budget season. Staff indicated they are starting conversations with the planning director and assistant about potential paths for the county's comprehensive plan, from targeted updates to a full rewrite, and expect to bring options to the commission for feedback in 2026 with an eye toward work in 2027. Staff also said the current auditor will complete the 2025 audit and that staff will begin researching replacements to be ready for an auditor transition in early 2027.
Why it matters: The dump-fee waiver reduces event costs for a local community event; the comp-plan conversation signals potential future land-use and policy work, and the auditor search affects the county's financial oversight timeline.
