SANDPOINT — Bonner County commissioners cleared a short list of routine requests Tuesday, including a winter maintenance proposal, the destruction of county records and the closeout of a county grant.  

Commissioners answered requests from five county entities, approving all but one: the sale of a county vehicle after damages from a car accident resulted in higher repair costs than the vehicle's value. Commissioners agreed to revisit the item later after they believed more research was needed to determine the market value of the vehicle.  

Officials approved a winter maintenance proposal for the University of Idaho Bonner County Extension office. The proposal will allow Lippert Excavation and Pipeline to remove snow from the office's parking lot and entrance at $160 an hour, for a minimum of at least 15 minutes.  

The company was also approved to perform sidewalk maintenance, if necessary, for $130 an hour, for a minimum of at least 15 minutes.  

Snow will be cleared by the company when snow levels reach three or four inches in depth. Deicer will also be available upon request of the Extension office, and removal of snow from the applicable property for an additional rate.  

Commissioners debated the use of internal resources, such as the Bonner County Road and Bridge Department and the Bonner County Fairgrounds, but determined that it would not be a dependable option, as the applicable resources carried costs of their own and already held responsibilities that could delay services to the Extension office.  

Commissioners also approved the destruction of records for the Noxious Weeds department to destroy herbicide application records that are older than two years. Also approved for destruction were documents over five years relating to Cooperative Weed Management Area cost share program records.  

A 9A UTV Grant closeout was also approved during Tuesday's meeting. The grant was utilized for trail maintenance in the 9A groomer area in Priest Lake, applicable to the Coolin/Normand area. The total grant amount used for the project was $46,400, with a match of $11,600.
