JANUARY 6, 2026

DRAFT December 30, 2025, BOCC Minutes
Meeting Notes
1
9:00 AM Hough called the meeting to order. Moser moved to approve a release of lien for case numbers
20090048 and 20140019. The motion passed.
2
9:01 AM McKinney explained power issues that Oneida County experienced. He suggested, as a solution,
donating a generator that is 25 years old. It was formerly housed at the Chubbuck Police Department, and
has been stored for several years. It has been offered to other departments in the County with no interest.
Discussion ensued on McCammon’s potential need for a generator and other generators that might be
available. The generator should be offered to McCammon first.
9:03 AM McKinney explained the Guard1 equipment master services agreement, as formality, needs signed
on the correct lines. Moser moved to approve signature. The motion passed.
3
9:04 AM Jason Murdock, Shop Supervisor, also appeared. Romriell explained after the mechanic retired,
to help ease burden on staff, they tried outsourcing oil changes, but that did not work out. The
recommendation is to advertise the position at the highest level, a Mechanic 3. Doing this would still fall
under budget. Murdock explained the position is technical work and requires more knowledge. Bullock
moved to post at the requested pay level. The motion passed.
4
9:13 AM Phillips reviewed personnel policy updates. A full policy update is forthcoming, but there are
two items to approve. Juneteenth was approved previously approved and has been added to the Holiday
schedule. To comply with legislative changes, the employment statuses need changed to allow retirement
contributions for part-time and casual employees. Discussion ensued on last week’s announcement of a
federal holiday. Hough moved to approve the policy changes. The motion passed.
5
9:20 AM Assistant Director Tristan Bourquin also appeared. Jensen reviewed updates to the timeline for
the ordinance rewrite. Bourquin explained how the timeline was developed, and rezone issues that are
possible. Discussion ensued on multi-use zoning issues, takings analysis, and items that have interrupted
the rewrite timeline. Jensen relayed they are working on something that works, makes sense, is legally
defensible, and not politically motivated.
9:39 AM Radford added discussion regarding legal outlay, federal constitution, zoning, regulatory taking,
and Idaho clauses for further protection.
6
9:43 AM Hough moved to approve document disposal. The motion passed.
7
9:44 AM Bullock moved to approve the items on the consent agenda. The motion passed.
