The following is the part in the funding request that would not print the entire text box.
Briefly Describe how this curriculum will improve outcomes for the youth you serve. (limited to 250
words)
The Village, a Safe Teen Assessment Center operating as the Intake and Diversion Unit for Bannock
County Juvenile Justice, is seeking funding from the Juvenile Justice Commission to implement *The
Council for Boys and Young Men*, a strengths-based, gender-responsive program developed by One
Circle Foundation.
The Village served 224 boys in SFY 2024, 205 in SFY 2025, and 152 in SFY 2026. These youth may enter
The Village due to behavioral concerns, school difficulties, family conflict, substance use, or other factors
that can increase the risk of continued juvenile justice involvement. The Council provides an early
intervention opportunity to address these concerns before they escalate.
The program will improve outcomes by helping participants develop emotional regulation,
communication, conflict-resolution, decision-making, teamwork, and healthy relationship skills. It also
addresses unhealthy beliefs about masculinity that can contribute to aggression, violence, poor
decision-making, and disengagement from school. By strengthening protective factors and teaching
practical skills, the program will help youth improve relationships, increase school engagement, make
healthier choices, and reduce behaviors that can lead to further justice-system involvement.
The Village has an established affiliation with GemState AmeriCorps providing 8-900-hour contracts for
Idaho State University interns, These interns will facilitate The Council under the supervision of The
Village staff, creating a sustainable delivery model that leverages existing community partnerships.
Funding will allow The Village to provide a structured, evidence-informed intervention that moves
beyond simply responding to delinquent behavior and instead addresses underlying risk factors, builds
protective factors, and gives boys the skills and relationships needed to succeed at home, in school, and
in the community.

23 BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' - MEETING AUGUST 25, 2026
Pathways to Success- Brief Description of how these courses will improve outcomes for the
youth you serve (Limit 250 Words)
We have included the description provided in the Pathways for Success proposal due to it being
printed in at text box and not being able to read the entire description in grant form.
Bannock County Juvenile Justice is committed to reducing repeat offending and probation
violations by providing youth with evidence-based interventions that address behaviors
contributing to delinquency, The 3rd Millennium Classrooms programs Conflict Wise and
Respect and Resolve provide structured, skill-based interventions for youth involved in conflict,
interpersonal offenses, and other behaviors that increase the risk of continued justice-system
involvement.
The need for these interventions is demonstrated by local data, Bannock County Juvenile Court
heard 140 misdemeanor conflict charges in calendar year 2023, 89 in 2024, and 59 in 2025. The
Village, which serves as Bannock County Juvenile Justice’s Intake and Diversion Unit, provided
prevention and diversion services to 120 youth referred for person or property crimes in SFY
2023, 111 in SFY 2024, and 99 in SFY 2025.
Conflict Wise and Respect and Resolve will give youth an appropriate, structured opportunity to
address behaviors associated with conflict and offending. Rather than relying solely on sanctions,
these courses help youth develop practical skills in decision-making, accountability,
communication, emotional regulation, conflict resolution, and respectful relationships,
Integrating these interventions into probation and diversion will provide staff with targeted
resources to match appropriate youth with meaningful behavioral interventions. Addressing these
behaviors early can reduce repeat offending and probation violations while strengthening
accountability and equipping youth with skills to make better decisions. Ultimately, these
programs will support safer relationships, improved youth outcomes, and reduced involvement in
the juvenile justice system. ,

Proposal for Bannock County Emergency Management Relocation to SICOG
Submitted to: Bannock County Emergency Management Submitted
by: Southeast Idaho Council of Governments (SICOG) Date: 3/13/2025
Proposal Amount: $900 per month
Proposal Overview
SICOG proposes housing Bannock County Emergency Management at its facility for a monthly
lease of $900. This move will facilitate enhanced collaboration, resource sharing, and improved
emergency management capabilities for Bannock County and the surrounding region. The facility is
well-equipped to support Emergency Management operations and will serve as a strategic hub for
all phases of emergency response, including mitigation, planning, preparedness, response, and
recovery.
Benefits of Relocation to SICOG
1. Enhanced Regional Collaboration -A central location at SICOG allows for closer
coordination, for all phases of emergency management, between Bannock County, regional
emergency management agencies, and community partners, strengthening overall
emergency management capacity building.
2. Cost Savings - By consolidating operations at SICOG, Bannock County can reduce costs
associated with maintaining a separate facility while maximizing available resources with
all contiguous counties..
3. Improved Emergency Response - The SICOG facility is well-positioned to serve as a
Regional Hub, facilitating real-time coordination for mitigation, planning, preparedness,
response, and recovery of disasters, enhancing the ability to protect people, facilitate and
the environment, through a more effective incident management program.

9:02 AM Sue Pettit, Director of Secondary Education, and Doug Howell, Superintendent for PCSD, also
appeared. Crowther reviewed the request to use the amphitheater for all four graduations next year.
Discussion ensued on previous graduations, chairs, use of school facilities for elections, service projects.
9:05 AM Bullock moved to approve the fee waivers and use of the facilities for the high school
graduations. The motion passed.
9:08 AM John Henderson with Paralyzed Veterans of America Mountain States Chapter appeared via
Zoom. Crowther reviewed the request for a Veterans Adaptive Recreation Clinic. Henderson reviewed
his work, mission, and request. Upon questioning, Henderson indicated the organization spends 60% of
funding on programming, the anticipated participant number to be 15-20 Veterans with caregivers and
family members, and that there has not been any contact with the Veterans Services Coordinator.
Discussion ensued on local affiliations and resources, fees, and costs.
9:20 AM Hough moved to approve the request for a fee reduction. Bullock suggested being listed as a
sponsor. Hough amended the motion to include being a sponsor. The motion passed.

9:21 AM Planning Director Hal Jensen also appeared. Stenquist reviewed the residential development
project and preliminary approvals. The real property was annexed into the City of Lava Hot Springs and
they will extend water and sewer connections. The original thought was this property that these utility
lines would go through for the most efficient path was a right-of-way, but it is a parcel owned by the
County. A utility easement was going to be requested, but Planning Director Jensen called him with
potential solutions.
9:24 AM Jensen submitted some documents to do a historical presentation. Hough reported being in
attendance at the planning meeting when this was presented and this project will offer affordable housing
specifically for the workers or people of Lava. There will be restrictions for long-term rentals or
purchasing. Stenquist confirmed that and explained there are conditions in the annexation agreement that
the HOA will govern short term rentals up to a certain amount.
9:26 AM Stenquist expanded on that explanation and development plan/lots. Moser suggested giving the
property to the City of Lava. 9:27 AM Jensen jested that was his presentation. Deeding the property to
the City of Lava would make it so Mr. Stenquist is only dealing with one government entity. This
property came into the County’s possession from a 1981 tax deed. A number of neighboring properties
use this for access to their property. Research did not determine what that was originally for and no
dedications were found for utility or access easements other than the original property owner. Jensen
agrees with the potential transfer as it will make it easier for development to take place. It doesn’t make
sense to have a developer dealing with multiple governmental agencies to put this together. If the
property is transferred, then the City of Lava can determine what the property is used for and grant utility
and access easements. Deeding will fall in line with some of the goals and directives of the
comprehensive plan, the ACI, and state statute. 9:30 AM Moser moved to advise legal and Planning to
move forward to transfer the property to the City of Lava Hot Springs. The motion passed.
4
9:31 AM Dixon reviewed the contracts for copy/printer machines. Hough called for a vote in favor. The
motion passed.
5
9:32 AM Bullock moved to approve Resolution Nos. 2026-51, 52, and 53. The motion passed.
6/7
9:33 AM Moser moved to approve publication of the Commissioner Proceedings for July and the
consent agenda. The motion passed.

10:00 AM Coroner Torey Danner, Treasurer Jennifer Clark, Business and Event Director Scott
Crowther, Juvenile Probation Officer Jesika Snyder, Juvenile Probation Director Todd Mauger, Landfill
Manager Dillon Evans, Management Assistant Kristi Davenport, Assistant Planning Director Tristan
Bourquin, Planning Director Hal Jensen, Facilities Director Dan Kendall, Public Works Director Kiel
Burmester, Assistant Public Works Director Buddy Romriell, Procurement Officer Shanda Crystal,
Prosecutor Ian Johnson, Sheriff Tony Manu, IT/E911 Director Adam McKinney, HR/Risk Management
Director Matthew Phillips, GIS Manager Heather Studley, Adult Probation Officer Doug Cone, and
Chief Deputy Sheriff Andy Iverson were present.
10:01 AM Health Insurance - Dixon explained the graph that was handed out that shows what the
County pays per employee for health insurance. Costs have increased exponentially every year and the
County is self-insured. Department heads should remind employees of the great insurance benefits and
61
BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS' - MEETING
AUGUST 25, 2026
DRAFT August 18, 2026, BOCC Minutes
the cost. Crowther questioned if that cost is reasonable what other entities pay. Discussion ensued on the
definition of self-insured, that the County pays the claims and changing that would pass more out-of-
pocket costs to the employee, either through contributions or higher deductibles. The stop loss increased
4 times, so the County pays the first $400,000 per insured. Bullock also pointed out the statutory match
on retirement is much higher than private employers.
10:08 AM Discussion on the benefits of the graph to aid in understanding.
10:10 AM Phillips reviewed open enrollment is starting in September and the process will utilize paper
forms this year. HR will have sessions at various times and locations/departments. PERSI will have
education sessions at the Sheriff’s Office. A new voluntary benefit offering for college savings plans and
the benefits of 529 plans were reviewed. Phillips is working on personnel handbook updates and topics
for leadership trainings were discussed.
10:21 AM Hough questioned if improvements are needed to the onboarding process. Discussion ensued
on items discussed in onboarding, and what department’s do for onboarding/training. Hough shared a
quote, “unsaid expectations are just premeditated disappointments.”
10:27 AM Klauser reported that October 1 is the last day to submit FY26 claims and items have to be
on-site. An email will be sent for a reminder.
10:28 AM Dixon explained the reimbursement requests have increased countywide. The procedure is to
check out a County credit card. The County does not pay taxes and will not reimburse for tax. Checking
out or using a County credit card is the expectation and procedure; except for emergencies. In those
cases, discussion with the Commission can be had to request reimbursement of the tax.
10:33 AM Manu discussed misleading information regarding flock cameras. They do not record
everything, but only take pictures of license plates. Data from the flock cameras has been useful many
times. A few successful endings included a call regarding a van attempting to entice kids. The van was
located with information from the flock camera. If there were no camera and the person did entice a kid,
then what? Another incident was a bar fight in Lava that helped locate individuals that fled the scene.
The data is not under constant surveillance and is used when something happens. Another example was a
missing woman the family had not heard from for a few days. She was tracked through the data from the
flock camera subscription and she was located in Jackson Hole. There is a usage policy and the data is
only stored for 7 days. Usage and storage data are constantly audited to ensure there is no misuse.
10:39 AM Kendall reviewed the reserve parking spots for the motor pool cars. Moser pointed out each
car will have carwash stickers inside. Romriell reported a utility trailer was approved in the budget and
will be available in the pool fleet. McKinney reviewed the recent internet outage, and a plan to replace
the WIFI system in the courthouse and Sheriff’s Office first and then outlying buildings. All WIFI will
be public, but in order to log in to your work desktop and apps, a VPN will be required. A cybersecurity
grant through OEM will be used for that. Working with HR, a prescription chat bot was built and they
are looking how best to put that out. Utilization on the AI subscription is next to nil and departments
were requested to look at their need for the account or turn it back. Discussion ensued on an internal AI
system that was built only for information the County puts into it. Potential AI training was discussed.
10:51 AM Crystal reviewed a team and testing ideas in the AI system, the prescription chat bot, and a
Road and Bridge AI system for their requirements. It’s like succession planning, and data is dumped into
this “brain.” McKinney reported on a cyber traffic management system his staff built that watches
everything and sends notifications of issues or outages.
10:56 AM Studley requested notice of staff changes.
10:57 AM Cone reported after receiving a weapons threat, a screening device was set up that has found
several weapons. Pretrial successes were discussed that help keep folks out of jail.
11:01 AM Adjourned.

Meeting Notes

9:01 AM Hough called the meeting to order. Merzlock introduced himself and explained he has been in
the real estate world for close to 50 years. He reviewed his request for a zoning exception and to be able
to derive a building permit from that. He explained the property location and surrounding developments.
Merzlock also met with Planning and paid for research, but was denied and told the two parcels that came
together to as one. He’s been to the City of Chubbuck and applied for annexation which was approved,
but the fire marshal came forward to object due to having a private bridge. The fire marshal wanted proof
the bridge would handle the weight of a fire truck weight. A structural engineer was paid $5,000 and
approved the bridge as sound. However, he doesn’t have water to the property and that would take
between $300,000-400,000. If Bannock County allows a permit, it would come with a septic and well.
9:12 AM Planning Director Hal Jensen reported it does not meet the density requirement for an ag zone
and it has multiple pieces of property. This area was under consideration for a rezone during the rewrite,
but that was shifted away. The question for legal is whether several properties along with Mr. Merzlock’s
can be rezoned to residential suburban or if that would be spot zoning. As it stands, Mr. Merzlock has no
development rights.
9:14 AM Bowen reviewed there is no definition of spot zoning in statute, but cases from 2015 in Payette
County have a test for two kinds of spot zoning. The test for reclassifying, whether it is compatible with
the comprehensive plan. The second is whether a rezone is not consistent with a comprehensive plan and
is done for the benefit of a single landowner. In this case, it appears an agricultural piece of land that is
not in ag production and is surrounded by residential areas, that a rezone would be consistent with the
comprehensive plan and be permissible spot zoning under Idaho law.
9:16 AM Discussion ensued on another similar application being denied and that a building permit
application would require proof on the bridge. Moser brought up the process to transfer development
right, and shared concerns of the bridge and whether it would be private or public. Bullock discussed a
rezone to match the surrounding properties and potential options. Jensen explained a variance is not an
option as all the requirements would not be met and would be a waste of Mr. Merzlock’s time.
Annexation was approved, but he would have to provide water. 9:24 AM Moser moved to go forward
with a rezone. Jensen questioned whether to include the other two properties. The Board deferred to
Jensen and his expertise on the area. The motion passed.
2
9:27 AM Clark submitted a request for cancellation of late fees and interest. Bullock moved to authorize
the cancellations. Clark reviewed the justification and the taxes were paid. The motion passed.
3
9:28 AM Talbot requested signature on documents for the grant submission due this day. Bullock moved
to authorize the Chair’s signature. The motion passed.
4
9:29 AM Hunter Brewer, Maintenance Specialist, also appeared. Kendall gave updates on elevator
inspections, sewer backup, city water line break in Downey, flooding at the Planning office, completed
McCammon Ambulance project, and YDC drainage and cracks on the side of the building.
5
9:36 AM Fair Board Member D’Lyn Moser-Evans, Fairgrounds Maintenance Alex Hauser, Bill Jons,
and Shad Hansen from Marsh Valley School District were also present. Pehrson reviewed the requests for
fee waivers to use the bleachers, and the requested number of bleachers/days for high school football
games and a live nativity scene in Arimo. Bullock moved to approve the two fee waivers. The motion
passed.
6
9:40 AM Facilities Director Dan Kendall also appeared. Crystal reviewed the process to this point for the
RFQ and requested to move forward with contract negotiations with Booth Architecture. The motion
passed.

9:41 AM Evans updated the Board on the scraper rebuild that has more damage than anticipated. The
request is to add $145,000. Klauser reviewed discussion on holding back on some remediation items.
Evans explained that DEQ is doing a longer review so the funds are available. Bullock moved to
authorize the additional $145,000. The motion passed.
8
9:43 AM Burmester reviewed the request to approve an easement agreement for a turnaround. The survey
was completed in 2023 and is located in the Meadow Ridge Ranch Subdivision. Moser moved to approve
the easement agreement. The motion passed.
9
9:48 AM Klauser explained the discovery of changes that need made to the proposed budget, but will not
affect the bottom line.
9:50 AM Klauser explained the previously approved contract with RecDesk, but in going through
implementation notified of a fee for disputed amounts. An addendum is needed for that process. Bullock
moved to authorize electronic signature. The motion passed.
10 Cancelled.
