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 sign 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 motion passed. 4 9:13 AM Phillips reviewed personnel policy updates. A full policy update is forthcoming, but there are two items to approve.
