Another short BOCC meeting
LAUREN REICHENBACH | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 2 years, 6 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. | April 28, 2024 1:00 AM
SANDPOINT — Another relatively short agenda is on the Bonner County commissioners’ radar this week.
No commissioner items have been put on the agenda, and the board is set to only hear from four departments. The Bonner County Clerk, EMS, Treasurer, and Road and Bridge departments will talk with commissioners this week regarding claims batches, a fire station sublease and use agreement, EMS quarterly reports, chloride contracts and 2024 asphalt projects.
Following the departments’ requests, Commissioner Asia Williams will give her District 2 commissioner report.
The meeting will end with two executive sessions, one regarding Human Resources topics and the other regarding two BOCC items: the fair board and Dave Bowman appeal. 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 are live-streamed via YouTube. To access the streams, visit the Bonner County YouTube page at bit.ly/3NElj9X.
