***Monday,
September 09, 2013,
Commissioners met in regular session with
Chairman Dan Dinning, Commissioner LeAlan
Pinkerton, Commissioner Walt Kirby, Clerk Glenda
Poston, and Deputy Clerk Michelle Rohrwasser.
Commissioners gave the opening invocation and
said the Pledge of Allegiance.
9:00 a.m.,
Road and Bridge Superintendent Jeff Gutshall
joined the meeting to give the departmental
report. Mr. Gutshall presented a written report.
Mr. Gutshall said dust abatement has been
completed on a section of Lions’
Den Road from Gold
Bar Ranch to Deep Creek Loop. Mr. Gutshall
discussed using Sam Fodge’s glycerol material
for dust abatement so he will see how that
works. Mr. Gutshall said he learned if you shoot
the glycerol on to rock, it will stick to tires
so you want to place it on hard packed rock. Mr.
Gutshall said biodiesel has been “come and go”
as far as availability and the price
differential was only 13 cents on that
particular day. The Road and Bridge Department
is continuing with roadside mowing and doing
sign work.
Mr. Gutshall said Road and Bridge hauled rock to
Fairchild Road. The
crusher has started at Moyie Pit #2 and the Mine
Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) has
already completed their inspection. Road and
Bridge has been maintaining the detour route
during the Deep
Creek Bridge
construction. Mr. Gutshall said he received a
call from the Grove residence about drivers
speeding on the detour route, but they were
instructed to contact the Sheriffs’ Office
because Road and Bridge cannot do anything about
that.
Mr. Gutshall reviewed his department report to
include: having three graders out today, hauling
more rock to Fairfield Road and Kerr Lake Road
tomorrow, finishing patching with the
durapatcher, roadside mowing in Moravia where
the paving project will be, and soon installing
culverts on Pleasant Valley Loop and Cabinet
Mountain Road, which will be done in
coordination with Idaho Transportation
Department.
Road and Bridge will be working in the Deer
Creek area towards
Perkins
Lake so roads in that area will get
brushed. Notice signs will be put up including
posting notice on
Eileen Road. Mr.
Gutshall said he may not finish
Eileen Road because
he wants to get rock on
Green Pasture Road
from Mountain Meadows down to
Brown Creek Road.
Road and Bridge will continue to crush rock for
the next month or two, according to Mr. Gutshall.
Chairman Dinning and Mr. Gutshall discussed a
public hearing to be held on the 129,000 pound
truck limit matter. Chairman Dinning said
Roosevelt Road
will play into this. Mr. Gutshall said those
trucks won’t stay on
Roosevelt Road as
they would probably turn onto
Split Rock Road as
well. Mr. Gutshall said he doesn’t think either
road is conducive to a vehicle that long.
Chairman Dinning asked Mr. Gutshall to review
the rules that are being drafted for this
legislation.
Mr. Gutshall discussed the overbid amount for
the Deep Creek Paving project. Taking some
things out of the project had been mentioned by
the engineer and Scott Ellsworth with the Local
Highway Technical Assistance Council (LHTAC)
wanted to know what Mr. Gutshall thought. Mr.
Gutshall said mitigation needs to be done on
Deep Creek Loop and funding needs to be taken
care of before anything else.
The meeting with Mr. Gutshall ended at
9:30 a.m.
Commissioner Pinkerton moved to adopt Resolution
2013-32. A resolution increasing the Road and
Bridge budget due to receipt of unanticipated
funds. Commissioner Kirby second. Motion passed

9:30 a.m.,
Courthouse Maintenance Jerry Kothe joined the
meeting to provide his department report. Mr.
Kothe provided a written report.
Mr. Kothe discussed mowing and checking on the
restrooms at the boat docks in the north part of
the county. Mr. Kothe discussed a quote from
Steve Bourgard of Bogie and Sons for sealing the
roof of the Courthouse. Chairman Dinning said he
talked about issuing payment for this service
after the start of the next budget year and that
seemed to be okay.
Commissioner Pinkerton moved to accept the quote
of $3,200 from Bogie and Sons to re-seal the
roof of the Courthouse subject to the available
budget. Commissioner Kirby second. Motion passed
unanimously.
The meeting with Mr. Kothe ended at
9:45 a.m.
Commissioners reviewed claims for payment. Fund
totals are as follows:
(insert
claims)
Commissioners tended to administrative duties.
9:50 a.m., County resident Janet Satchwell
stopped by Commissioners’ Office to voice her
support of the county working with the Forest
Service to brush the roads. It’s important that
people can get to places. Ms. Satchwell said
Queen Trail is getting brushy now and that is an
established trail. Chairman Dinning said the
county needs to sign an agreement with the
Forest Service then the county will find an
appropriate time to help brush these roads as
the county roads need it, too. The county is
moving forward in helping the Forest Service
brush roads and is also looking into the ability
to utilize the help of community service
juveniles for this.
Ms. Satchwell left the meeting at
9:53 a.m.
Commissioner Pinkerton moved to approve the
minutes of August 19 and 20, 2013.
Commissioner Kirby second. Motion passed
unanimously.
Deputy Clerk Nancy Ryals joined the meeting at
10:05 a.m.
10:10 a.m.,
Commissioner Kirby moved to go into closed
session under Idaho Code #31-874. Commissioner
Pinkerton second. Motion passed unanimously. 10:11
a.m., Commissioner Kirby moved to go
out of closed session. Commissioner Pinkerton
second. Motion passed unanimously.
Commissioner Pinkerton moved to deny indigent
application #2013-31 as per the Clerk’s
recommendation. Commissioner Kirby second.
Motion passed unanimously.
Deputy Clerk Ryals and Clerk Poston left the
meeting at 10:15
a.m.
Restorium Administrator Karlene Magee and Deputy
Clerk Nancy Ryals joined the meeting at 10:20 a.m.
Deputy Clerk Ryals talked to Ms. Magee briefly
about the Restorium elevator grant in regards to
an additional $3,115 received for the snow stops
and gutters. Ms. Magee said she hadn’t been
informed of these funds.
Deputy Clerk Ryals left the meeting at
10:25 a.m.
Commissioners and Ms. Magee reviewed the update
of the Quickbooks bookkeeping system.
Commissioners asked if there is anything they
can do or provide to help Ms. Magee catch up on
the bookkeeping program. Commissioners said it
may help to have someone work specifically on
this program because Ms. Magee has a facility to
run. Commissioners indicated that it was not
acceptable that critical Medicaid information
hadn’t been included in the report since May.
Commissioners discussed matters relating to
funding and running the Restorium as well as
focuses of the Commissioners and the role of the
Restorium Advisory Board. Commissioner Kirby
said Ms. Magee has always had Commissioners’
support.
Ms. Magee said she had been hesitant about
providing the waiting list to Commissioners as
there are potential residents on the list who
would not want their information shared.
Commissioners assured Ms. Magee that
Commissioners are entrusted with information
that is a lot more confidential. Chairman
Dinning said the question is how to get
potential residents to fill the vacant rooms as
quickly as possible. Commissioner Kirby briefly
mentioned the process of filling the rooms based
on the waiting list. Commissioner Pinkerton
asked Ms. Magee if she had any suggestions about
filling the rooms. Ms. Magee said it isn’t an
instant process as the potential resident has to
meet her criteria as well as have notes from
their doctor and family members, etc.
Commissioners asked about the normal time frame
to fill a room such as six months. Ms. Magee
said it’s normally not that long.
Chairman Dinning said there are people who are
hired who can provide advertising for the
facility such as providing notice of available
rooms. This is something that falls on Ms. Magee
now so it may be helpful to hire someone else so
Ms. Magee has time to manage the Restorium.
There is enough staff to provide care for 30
residents as it does for 40 residents. Ms. Magee
mentioned the Restorium has to have a certain
amount of square feet per restroom so that is
something to consider. Chairman Dinning said he
does know the Restorium is licensed for up to 50
residents. Chairman Dinning said he would like
to see the Restorium have so many people want to
stay there that the county has to add on.
Commissioner Kirby questioned if it’s better to
build the addition first. Chairman Dinning said
he isn’t going to mandate residents share a
restroom, but if there are residents willing to
do that, Commissioners can take a look at that.
Chairman Dinning said Commissioners are trying
to learn more about the Restorium and they
advised Ms. Magee to not get into the political
mess between them and the Restorium Advisory
Board.
The meeting with Ms. Magee ended at
11:05 a.m.
Commissioner Pinkerton moved to authorize the
Chairman to sign the FY 12 Juvenile
Accountability Block Grant Award. Commissioner
Kirby second. Motion passed unanimously.
11:10 a.m.,
Commissioner Kirby conducted a quarterly jail
inspection.
Clerk Glenda Poston joined the meeting at
11:12 a.m.
Clerk Poston said she received the county’s
property values from the State and on September 3, 2013 the county held the budget hearing for
the Ambulance Service District for fiscal year
2013-2014. On September 4, 2013, the State had sent a
notice stating the personal property amounts
they had sent included the urban renewal
information so those prior values were
incorrect. Clerk Poston said after the county’s
budget hearing she learned from the State the
information on values had been wrong. The amount
of $367,476 for property values was incorrect
and the total is actually lower. The Ambulance
District had a levy of .004% along with the
higher, incorrect values so the difference is
only approximately $150.
She provided Commissioners with a resolution to
amend the prior resolution adopting the fiscal
year 2013-2014 Ambulance Service District
budget.
Commissioner Pinkerton moved to amend the agenda
for 1:50 p.m., to include the adoption of the
resolution amending the Ambulance Service
District budget for fiscal year 2013-2014 as
it’s time sensitive. Chairman Dinning yield the
chair to second. Motion passed unanimously.
Commissioner Kirby returned to the meeting.
11:45 a.m.,
Commissioner Dinning, Commissioner Pinkerton and
Clerk Poston visited the snowmobile park due to
complaints from neighbors near the park. No
decisions were made.
Commissioners recessed for lunch.
1:30 p.m., Commissioners met for the afternoon
session with Chairman Dinning, Commissioner
Pinkerton, Commissioner Kirby, Clerk Poston, and
Deputy Clerk Michelle Rohrwasser.
1:30 p.m.,
County Noxious Weeds Superintendent Duke Guthrie
joined the meeting. Mr. Guthrie said donations
are being sought to keep the Idaho Weeds
Awareness Program going forward as the budget
for this program has been cut. There are a lot
of awareness measures getting out to the public
so this program helps, according to Mr. Guthrie.
It was suggested approaching the Governor’s
Office to add a line item to the budget as that
hasn’t been done. Mr. Guthrie said he had been
on the committee and that had also been the
committee’s recommendation. Mr. Guthrie said
education is a big part of how to control
noxious weeds and he added that a website is
available. Mr. Guthrie said the donation request
had been for $500, but he does have $200
available in his budget.
Commissioner Kirby moved to donate $200 from the
Weeds Budget to the State of
Idaho Weeds Awareness Program.
Commissioner Pinkerton second. Motion passed
unanimously.
Commissioners and Mr. Guthrie reviewed quotes
for a vehicle for the Weeds Department. Mr.
Guthrie said Rockstad Ford, Alpine Motors,
Taylor Parker, and Dave Smith Motors were
approached. Rockstad Ford submitted a quote,
Taylor Parker and Alpine were going to submit
quotes, but never did and Dave Smith Motors
responded that they didn’t have anything
available.
The quote from Rockstad Ford has met the
criteria. These are half ton trucks and the one
quote was a three quarter ton, according to Mr.
Guthrie. Chairman Dinning and Mr. Guthrie
reviewed the quotes.
Commissioner Pinkerton moved to accept the
County’s Noxious Weeds Superintendent’s
recommendation for a 2013 F-150 Super Cab pick
up for $25,672 depending on availability.
Commissioner Kirby second. Motion passed
unanimously.
Mr. Guthrie left the meeting.
Commissioner Kirby moved to approve the minutes
of September 2 & 3, 2013. Commissioner Pinkerton
second. Motion passed unanimously.
Commissioner Pinkerton moved to sign the One
Year Extension to the Agreement for Animal
Shelter Services. Commissioner Kirby second.
Motion passed unanimously.
Chief Probation Officer Stacy Brown joined the
meeting.
Clerk Poston said the proposed Ambulance Service
District’s budget had been published in the
newspaper at $334,000, which was an assumed
amount. On August 29th the State of
Idaho
sent to counties the amount for state values,
which was $8,258,350.52. A budget hearing was
held on September 3rd, and the
Ambulance District’s budget was approved at
$330,334, which is the 0004% levy. On the
morning of September 4th the State
Tax Commission sent counties an email stating
the property tax figure they had sent out was
incorrect. The Ambulance District’s budget needs
to be amended because it’s based on a fixed levy
amount going back to property values. The fiscal
year 2013-2014 Ambulance District budget needs
to be amended so a resolution amending that
budget by $150 needs to be adopted.
Commissioner Pinkerton moved to recess as the
Boundary County Board of Commissioners and
convene as the Governing Board of the Ambulance
Service District. Commissioner Kirby second.
Motion passed unanimously.
Commissioner Pinkerton moved to adopt Resolution
2013-1A (Amended). A resolution amending
Resolution 2013-1A adopting the fiscal year
2013-2014 Boundary County Ambulance Service
District budget. Commissioner Kirby second.
Motion passed unanimously. Resolution 2013-1A
(Amended) reads as follows:
RESOLUTION 2013-1A (Amended)
AMENDING A
RESOLUTION TO ADOPT THE FISCAL YEAR 2013-2014
BOUNDARY COUNTY AMBULANCE SERVICE DISTRICT
BUDGET
WHEREAS, the proposed budget for the Boundary
County Ambulance Service District was duly
printed in the Bonners Ferry Herald on August
15, 2013 and on the 3rd day of September, 2013,
at the Boundary County Courthouse in Bonners
Ferry, Idaho the Board of County Commissioners
held the fiscal year 2013-2014 budget hearing,
in accordance with Idaho Code 31-1604 and Idaho
Code 31-1605, for the Boundary County Ambulance
Service District and,
WHEREAS, there was citizen input on the budget
as proposed, and having considered the budget
needs and available revenue, the Board of
Boundary County unanimously adopted the fiscal
year 2013-2014 Ambulance Service District Budget
on September 3, 2013 by Resolution 2013-1A,
recorded as instrument number
258630,
and
WHEREAS, the State Tax Commission made an error
by overstating (by $367,476.00) the net taxable
value for the personal property exemption which
would result in the levy for the Boundary County
Ambulance Service District being higher than the
.0004 allowed by Idaho Code, and
WHEREAS, the proposed budget as printed in the
Bonners Ferry Herald on August 15, 2013 is still
correct, and
WHEREAS, it is necessary to amend Resolution
2013-1A adopting the fiscal year 2013-2014
Ambulance Service District Budget to correct the
error by the State Tax Commission, and
NOW
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of the
Boundary County Ambulance Service District
hereby unanimously adopt the fiscal year
2013-2014 budget as attached for the Boundary
County Ambulance Service District.

Commissioner Pinkerton moved to adjourn as the
Governing Board of the Boundary County Ambulance
Service District and reconvene as the Boundary
County Board of Commissioners. Commissioner
Kirby second. Motion passed unanimously.
Ms. Brown said the Juvenile Justice Association
conference went well this year. Ms. Brown said
she is now officially the past president of the
Juvenile Justice Association so her duties are
less this year and the Misdemeanor Officer
Academy is now held only once per year so that
is another substantial savings. Ms. Brown said
she is now the Chairperson for the Restorative
Justice Committee and she will also sit on the
grant scoring committee. That will be a good
thing for the county, according to Ms. Brown.
Ms. Brown informed Commissioners her department
was able to purchase $1,529 worth of office
equipment for a little over $100 through a
grant.
Ms. Brown said Kootenai County Commissioners
would still like to have an advisory group for
the Region I Juvenile Detention Center and they
had requested Ms. Brown sit on that group.
Commissioner Pinkerton and Ms. Brown discussed
staffing matters and ensuring department
coverage.
Ms. Brown and Clerk Poston left the meeting at
2:10 p.m.
Commissioners tended to administrative duties.
2:30 p.m., Treasurer Jenny Fessler joined the
meeting to discuss delinquent taxes.
Treasurer Fessler said property owner Daryle
Anderson can only pay $50 per month toward his
mobile home taxes, but his 2013 taxes will
become delinquent if he pays only that amount.
If Mr. Anderson continues to pay $50, it will
keep the Sheriff’s Office from seizing or
posting the property.
Treasurer Fessler said Mr. Anderson owes taxes
for years 2011 and 2012 and the Treasurer’s
Office is about to bill for year 2013 taxes.
Treasurer Fessler said Mr. Anderson was
incarcerated during part of this time and he was
released sometime around December, but it isn’t
known when he went to jail. The cost of $131.48
is the amount Mr. Anderson owes for the solid
waste fee and the translator fee. The actual
property tax amount for year 2012 was $12.60.
It’s the solid waste fee, etc., that increases
the amount owed. Treasurer Fessler said Mr.
Anderson does receive a homeowner’s exemption
benefit. If Mr. Anderson paid $478.20 today, it
would bring his taxes current. It was said if
Mr. Anderson only owed the tax portion, a $50
payment would pay that off without interest,
sheriff’s fees, etc.
Commissioners suggested Mr. Anderson continue
paying $50 per month to eventually get his taxes
caught up. Treasurer Fessler asked what would
happen if a payment is missed. Commissioners
contacted one of the county appraisers via
telephone and learned that $1,000 of Mr.
Anderson’s assessment is another structure and
$1,500 is the camper he lives in. Chairman
Dinning said the camper is not licensed
according to county records so it has to be
taxed in this fashion.
Commissioners asked Treasurer Fessler if she
would contact Mr. Anderson to see what options
can be worked out. Commissioners discussed
getting Mr. Anderson to license the camp trailer
instead of taxing it as a mobile home.
Treasurer Fessler left the meeting at 2:55 p.m.
Commissioner Kirby moved to cancel taxes and
fees for years 2011 and 2012 for parcel
#MH61N01W25615AA for property owner Daryle
Anderson and to have the Treasurer contact Mr.
Anderson to encourage him to license the camp
trailer. Commissioner Pinkerton second. Motion
passed unanimously.
Treasurer Fessler stopped back by Commissioners’
Office to inform them she spoke to Mr. Anderson
about Commissioners’ proposal. Treasurer Fessler
said Mr. Anderson said he could come to the
Courthouse this week. Treasurer Fessler left the
meeting.
3:00 p.m., There being no further business, the
meeting adjourned.
