RE: Use of OPOID funds for Bannock County Employee Training
When reviewing the Part One: Treatment under section A treat Opioid Use Disorder
(OUD) — Support treatment of Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) and any co-occurring
Substance Use Disorder or Mental Health (SUD/MH) conditions through evidence-
based or evidence-informed programs or strategies that may include, but are not limited
to, the following:
7. Scholarships and supports for behavioral health practitioners or workers
involved in addressing OUD and any co-occurring SUD or mental health
conditions, including but not limited to training, scholarships, fellowships, loan
repayment programs, or other incentives for providers to work in rural or
underserved areas.
| am requesting funds from our Bannock County Opioid Settlement Fund to send six
Bannock County Employees to the Idaho Treatment Court Training in Boise, Idaho. The
Treatment Conference includes content for treatment courts across the state. This local
conference will support our team and help them gain new tactics, insights and an
increased ability to improve the success of our treatment and treatment courts tailored
to local practice. Our courts here in the Sixth Judicial District are not immune from the
opioid epidemic and opioids effect every single court and treatment court we have in
Bannock County. Nearly 43% of the Treatment Court Participants in our district have a
primary or secondary opioid addiction. Our team will hear from experts on what
concerns them now and in the future on topics that matter most to treatment and
treatment courts. Team members will have the ability to attend courses and improve
upon and add to their skill set. As the District Manager, | see the effect opiates have on
our participants, their families, and our treatment courts and feel it very important that
our team learns how to monitor and work with this vastly evolving problem. Opiates
continue dominate our primary and secondary drugs of choice throughout all of our
courts.

17 BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' - MEETING APRIL 7, 2026
Proposal: Standardized Press Release & Digital Communications
Approval Process
To: Bannock County Elected Officials From: Public Information Officer (PIO) Date: April 7, 2026
Subject: Establishing a Consistent Workflow for County Communications
To ensure that Bannock County provides the public with accurate, timely, and vetted
information, | am proposing a formalized Press Release and Digital Communications Approval
Process. This workflow is designed to maintain the integrity of our;data, respect the autonomy
of each elected office, and ensure compliance with Idaho Open Meeting Laws.
Standard Approval Process
Every press release, regardless of the originating department, will follow a tiered approval
structure to ensure technical accuracy and administrative oversight.
1. Drafting: The PIO drafts the release based on raw data or interviews.
2. Technical Review: The Subject. Matter Expert (SME) and the Department Head must
approve the draft for factual accuracy.
3. Final Authorization: The appropriate Elected Official provides the final "green light"
before distribution.
4. Distribution: The PIO will.schedule or immediately publish the release, depending on its
timeliness, and distribute it according to PIO’s practice.
Expectation of Timeliness: To maintain the relevance of news and meet media deadlines,
reviewers are expected to complete their step in the approval process in a reasonably timely
manner. If a: delay is:anticipated, the PIO should be notified immediately.
Verbal or Written Approval: Both verbal and written approval are acceptable, and only one
type is required.
The Board of County Commissioners (BOCC)
To maintain compliance with Open Meeting Laws and avoid a "walking quorum," the approval
process for Commission-governed departments is as follows:
Option 1:
e The PIO will email the draft to each of the three Commissioners separately. The PIO will
not "CC" all Commissioners on a single thread. Approval must be received individually.
Option 2:
18 BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' - MEETING APRIL 7, 2026
o The Board will delegate press release approval to the Board Chair.
Independent Elected Offices
For the offices of the Coroner, Sheriff, Prosecutor, Assessor, Treasurer, and Clerk, the PIO will
work directly with the specific Elected Official for final approval.
Delegation of Authority: The above elected officials may delegate press release approval
authority to their deputy clerk or an appropriate administrator withintheir office, when
necessary.
Expedited & Special Overlays
e Emergency Protocol: In an emergency, the standard chain is bypassed. Approval process
will follow the chain of command established by Emergency Operations Center lead.
e Joint Press Releases: If a release crosses jurisdictions (e.g., Sheriff and Coroner), the PIO
must obtain approval from both Elected Officials. or their delegated authority.
e Financial Oversight: Any release specifying County Expenditures requires pre-approval
by the County Comptroller.
e Legal Review: Required only for active litigation, official legal threats, or pre-designated
sensitive cases. It is not required for standard incident updates or the Sheriff's
recommended charges.
Digital Messaging & Content Creation
The County’s digital footprint—including social media, the official website, and other messaging
platforms (e.g., email newsletters or alert systems)—serves as a vital real-time communication
tool.
o, Entrusted Authority: The approval and scheduling of content for social media, the
county website, and other digital messaging platforms, including newsletters, are
entrusted to the PIO. This also applies to visual content, such as graphics, videos, and
photos.
o Other county employees with approved access to manage and post on social
media are required to sign a copy of the county’s Social Media Policy, agreeing to
follow the code of conduct outlined for posts, comment deletion, and
management. It is understood that the PIO can edit or delete content shared by
other users within the guidelines of the Social Media Policy, as the entrusted
authority responsible for managing social media.
e Standards of Conduct: All digital content must adhere to the official County Social
Media Policy. Posts and updates must, in good faith, reflect the details of the associated
press release (where applicable) and align with the County’s core values. Posts should
19 BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' - MEETING APRIL 7, 2026
be informative, professional, engaging, and have the appropriate tone for the subject
matter.
e Departmental Exceptions: This centralized process does not apply to the Bannock
County Events Complex or the Bannock County Fair/Rodeo. Digital messaging for these
entities will be primarily led by their respective departments, with the PIO providing
assistance and high-level oversight as needed.
e Agenda Notifications: Agenda management and distribution for county boards and
commissions are assigned to the appropriate staff liaison. The PIO manages the
distribution system (Constant Contact) and provides distribution training.
e Emergency Alerts: Bannock County Dispatch is responsible for sending emergency alerts
via the IPAWS system, at the direction of the Bannock County Emergency Manager
and/or Sheriff. Notifications sent through the Sheriff's App may be sent by the PIO or
Emergency Manager. Alerts should follow FEMA’s best practicessfor Wireless Emergenc
Alerts.
