BOCC back in session this week
LAUREN REICHENBACH | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 2 years, 2 months AGO
I’ve spent most of my life in northeastern Washington and graduated from Eastern Washington University in 2021. After that, I spent roughly two years working for a small online newspaper in North Seattle before realizing big city living wasn’t for me. Me and my pup, Kodak, headed east, where we eventually landed in Sandpoint. When I’m not writing, you can find me spending time exercising and taking photos. I ran two half marathons in high school and after spending the past few years recovering from various injuries, I’m hoping to complete my first full marathon by the end of the year. I also love any outdoor activity, none of which would be complete without my dog. Kodak and I love going for walks and hikes, and I can’t wait to try to convince him to get in my kayak and spend the hot months of the year on Lake Pend Oreille. While he’s not a fan of baths, he sure does love chasing the ducks. | October 1, 2023 1:00 AM
The Bonner County commissioners will be back bright and early Tuesday morning after taking a break last week while all three commissioners were out of town for various reasons.
None of the commissioners have placed items on the agenda this week. Commissioners are set to hear from the county clerk, Solid Waste, Justice Services, Road and Bridge, and Assessor’s Office regarding monetary requests and resolutions.
The Bonner County Sheriff’s Office is also set to come before the commissioners to recognize Sergeant Anna Marie Moe and Lieutenant Cindy M. Wright for their service with the county.
The meeting is scheduled to end with five human resource executive sessions. Executive sessions are closed to the public to give officials a chance to discuss confidential information; however, all decisions must be made in open session.
Board of Bonner County Commission meetings are held at the Bonner County Administration Building, 1500 U.S. 2; and also live-streamed via YouTube. To access the streams, visit the Bonner County YouTube page at bit.ly/3NElj9X.
