Mark Russell Administrator of the Growth and Development Department appeared
before the Board to discuss issues relevant to his department. Mr. Russell
stated he had accepted a position with the Idaho Department of Education and his
last working day for Elmore County would be on July 30th. Mr. Russell gave the
Board a handout with several options for the open position including leaving the
department as is and hiring a new Director from outside, or making Bonnie Sharp
the Director and hiring a new Planner 1 from outside. There was discussion as to
whether Bonnie could do the Director position and the E-911 duties. Mr. Russell
assured the Board he thought, with some minor reshuffling of duties, she could.
Mr. Russell then discussed the building inspector position with the Board as to
step and grade, and stated he felt the position should be at Grade 11, Step 5,
which would be just below market. Mr. Russell added that the building inspector
then would not ask for reimbursement for meals.
A Letter of Information(LOI) for Bill Heaton was discussed. Mr. Russell stated
that the LOI was a routine one and that there was no opposition either by the
Commission or by neighbors of Mr. Heaton. Motion by Ireland, second by Rose, to
accept the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission to approve the
LOI for Bill Heaton and direct the Chair to sign it.

The Elected Officials and Department Heads met with the Board for their regular
monthly meeting. Gail Best , Clerk, asked the Board if they had reviewed the
draft resolution and amortization schedule on the jail? Gail stated they needed
to decide between a 10, 15, or 20 year schedule so the resolution could be
completed on time and she thought they may want input from the elected officials
and department heads. There was discussion on the term of the bond and the
question of whether early repayment was possible. A telephone call was placed to
Bud Way of Wells Fargo to see if early repayment was an option. Mr. Way stated
there would be a period of time in which the bond would be non callable -
usually eight or ten years - so that the investors could count on receiving a
return for that period of time. After the eight or ten years early repayment
could be done without penalty if the bond was done for fifteen years. Mr. Way
stated the bond could also be refinanced if the Board wished to do so. Mr. Way
stated he would like to appear before the Board to visit with them and a meeting
was scheduled for August 9, 2004 at 10:00 a.m. Motion by Egusquiza, second by
Ireland, to make the term of the $7.5 million dollar bond fifteen years.
EGUSQUIZA - AYE
ROSE - AYE
IRELAND - AYE Motion carried and so ordered.
Rose Plympton, Treasurer, stated she would be attending the Treasurers annual
conference the first week of August. She also asked if the Board was going to
make a decision on the Employee Assistance Program Proposal by APS Healthcare?
The Board stated they had not. Rose stated that the July collection was right on
target and that she was pleased with that. There was discussion on when to
conduct the tax deed sale and it was scheduled for 12:00 p.m. on August 23,
2004. The Board asked the Clerk to leave the afternoon schedule open until 2:00
p.m. that day to allow more time for the tax deed sale.
Jo Gridley, Chief Deputy Assessor, stated she wanted to discuss the digital
mapping fee. Jo presented the Board with information and a suggested fee
schedule which they had derived from combining information gathered from various
counties. The Board discussed various aspects of the fee schedule. Clerk Best
asked if the fee schedule should be published and Prosecutor Bazzoli stated it
certainly would not hurt to notify the public. Motion by Ireland, second by
Rose, to accept the Assessor’s Office fee schedule as presented.
EGUSQUIZA - AYE
ROSE - AYE
IRELAND - AYE Motion carried and so ordered.
Nick Schilz, Chief Deputy Sheriff, stated they had three vehicles down and they
are all in the shop being repaired, and they are hoping they can get by without
those vehicles. Nick stated the housing issue in Atlanta is settled for this
summer, the Forest Service is allowing their officers that go to Atlanta to stay
in the trailer as usual. Nick stated the County should probably look for some
property for the future. Commissioner Egusquiza stated that there is a nice
location up for tax deed sale this summer and perhaps the County should keep it.
Rose Plympton, Treasurer stated that the County would have to hold it, unused,
for one year before they could formally claim it so that there was time for it
to be redeemed by the owner. The Board felt that would not be a problem, and
that they would not put the Atlanta property in the August tax deed sale. An
upcoming Homeland Security grant was discussed and Nick stated there is no
requirement for matching funds from the County on the grant. Motion by Ireland,
second by Rose, to direct the Chair to sign the document and return it to Nick
for submission.
EGUSQUIZA - AYE
ROSE - AYE
IRELAND - AYE Motion carried and so ordered.
Chairperson Egusquiza asked Deputy Schilz if he felt the meal voucher issue they
discussed the other day would work out. Nick stated he felt it would and the
procedure was now clear to all involved.
Aaron Bazzoli, Prosecutor, stated that his deputy, Teri Kaptein, would now be
doing all the Indigent cases and related issues. Aaron stated he and Clerk Best
had discussed it, because his schedule is often so busy, and after consideration
he had decided it might be best to have one attorney who handled indigency
issues and could become really familiar with the files, cases and related code.
There was discussion on whether the Board was interested in attempting mediation
in the Weitz and Company issue. The Board asked what would happen if they did
not want to agree to mediation, Aaron stated then Weitz could file in District
Court. The Board asked what if they did agree to mediation, but the outcome did
not satisfy Weitz and Company, and Aaron said then Weitz could file in District
Court. The Board members, by turn, stated they were not interested in going to
mediation. Aaron stated that the new statistics show that there is a four
percent increase in the prison population annually, which includes state
facilities as well as county jails - one out of every thirty-two people will be
incarcerated.
Ted Knudson, of the Juvenile/Probation Department gave the Board his monthly
report. Ted said that, beginning next month, he wouldn’t be reporting on adult
probation at all because Jennifer Crogg would be taking over as part of the
Adult Community Service Coordinator duties she is taking on. Ted suggested that
the Board may want her to report to them periodically on how this new program is
working. Ted also reported he now has someone in the Pine/Featherville area that
will be doing community service and he has assigned him the area surrounding the
collection site to clean up, which he will do at least three or four times.
Dan Collins, Plant Facility Manager, told the Board there are a couple areas
that need re-carpeting on the campus. Law enforcement’s carpet is really wearing
and it cannot be cleaned anymore. Dan said he thinks, besides the age of the
carpet, the staining is due to ice melt used during the winter. Dan said the
other area that needs attention is the District Court offices, which will
probably have to be done in two separate phases, because there is nowhere to put
all the office furniture and equipment at once. Dan stated they use a moving
company to handle the moving and packing of the office furniture and fixtures
when they do major projects such as carpeting.
Tom Gibbon, Chief of Security, stated he had no report, all was going fine.
Mark Russell presented the Board with his department’s revenue report. Mark
stated they are doing very well revenue wise. Mark reported the Mayor needs
three microphones for his Town Hall meeting, so Mark will set up the equipment
that is used for Planning and Zoning meetings for the Mayor’s meeting. Mark also
asked the Board to speak at the Lion’s Club meeting during the month of August
about the jail bond - the meetings are on Thursdays. Commissioner Egusquiza
stated that Captain Lynn McCallum is on vacation this week but to coordinate a
date with him when he gets back so he can be there with the Board to answer
questions. A tentative date of August 12th at noon was set to go to the Lion’s
Club.
Judy Dunn, 355 Garrett Street appeared before the Board to discuss the developer
of Gregory Subdivision putting in a road. Ms. Dunn stated she objects because
right now it is a dead end road and she likes it that way - there are only three
families living on that street and she does not want a through road because her
grandchildren play out there. The Board told Ms. Dunn that City Planning and
Zoning is the one to see because they are requiring a through street for future
development, Ms. Dunn stated she was planning to go to the City meeting in the
evening.

Jeff Bate and Dan Lasuen of the Mountain Home Post Office and Bonnie Sharp of
the E-911 Street Naming Committee appeared to discuss the E-911 addressing for
18th, 3rd, and Sunset Strip, all of which run North and South and parts of each
run in both the City and the County. There is a duplication on 1580 Sunset
Strip, it has been discovered. All agree that, ideally, the lower numbers should
be in the City and proceed to larger numbers as the property is out of the City
limits and is located in the County. The task is to convince the City to allow
renumbering on these streets to allow the natural number progression to happen.
Ms. Sharp stated she was going to the City Council meeting to request the City
agree to this and asked Postmaster Bate to join her at that meeting to explain
why this would benefit the residents of those streets in both the City and
County. Mr. Lasuen stated they wanted to disrupt as few residents as possible,
while still having a good numbering system. Mr. Bate agreed to go to the City
Council meeting with Ms. Sharp to try and get their blessing to accomplish this.
The election ballot order was reviewed by the Board. Motion by Ireland, second
by Rose, to approve the election ballot order as presented by the Clerk’s

Date of Planning and Zoning’s Decision: June 3, 2004
Appeal of: The Planning and Zoning Commission’s decision regarding a Conditional
Use Permit Application for a 4-lot letter of Information Subdivision. The
application was denied due to irrigation drainage problems. The Applicant is in
the process of resolving the drainage water issue associated with the
neighboring property owned by Allen Thompson. As a result, the Applicant
requests the application be conditionally approved contingent upon resolution of
this issue.
Signature: James R. Martell
The fee to appeal to the Board of County Commissioners is $250.00 plus postage
and publication. The $250.00 fee is due at the time the appeal is filed. The
postage and publication fees will be billed.
If you have any questions please reference the Planning & Zoning Ordinance 94-1,
Appeals section. This can be obtained from the Planning and Zoning Office.
There were no people present to testify on the matter present. Mr. Russell
stated he was very surprised Mr. Martell was not present. The Board asked Clerk
Best if Mr. Martell was notified and the Clerk stated the file listed he was
notified by mail on June 30, 2004. There being no testimony offered to the
Board, the Chair declared the hearing closed.
Rural collection sites were discussed. Myron Adamson will look at the site in
Pine to see if he could install some chicken wire at the bottom to keep debris
from blowing out.
During the public portion of the meeting, Myron Adamson, Building Inspector,
came forward to speak to the Board. Mr. Adamson stated he would like his pay
raised. There was discussion. Mr. Adamson stated he was being paid below market
according to BDPA, Inc. and he would like to be paid what he is worth because he
has implemented the Uniform Building Code, increased the number of building
permits because of implementing the Code, and worked with citizens that have
built without permits. Clerk Best stated, although she is no way against Mr.
Adamson personally, there are other employees who are being paid below market in
the County and she felt she should remind the Board that they could be getting
into trouble here. Commissioner Ireland recused himself from the issue since Mr.
Adamson is married to his niece. There was further discussion, Mr. Adamson
stated that BDPA, Inc., said he should be a Grade 11, Step 5. Motion by Rose,
second by Egusquiza, that for the 2005 budget year a merit increase should be
awarded to Mr. Adamson to raise him to Grade 11, Step 5.

was leaving, as he has been wonderful to work with. Ms. Sharp also stated she
would be putting in for Mr. Russell’s position. Commissioner Ireland asked if
she were selected, how would she manage to handle the E-911 tasks? Ms. Sharp
stated the addressing project is slowing down - she probably does only ten or so
per week and she would have no trouble showing someone else in the office how to
do that if need be, so she did not think that would cause any problem.
Commissioner Ireland stated that, of course, they would have to advertise the
position as well and Ms. Sharp replied she did realize that.
