JEROME COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Tuesday, August 19, 2025
PRESENT: Ben Crouch, Chairman
Charles Howell, Vice Chairman
Art Watkins, Commissioner
Ryan Treanor, Deputy Clerk
Meeting convened at 11:11 am.
Old Business
IT Purchases
Matthew McGregor and Eli Bair were present.
The Board wanted to review the previous discussion about the IT credit card. The Board wanted
to review the process of how IT makes large purchases. Matthew stated that many of the
companies that they make purchases through are moving to only allowing credit card payments.
There are some other ways with certain companies to pay in a different way, but most are
requiring credit cards. He stated that he would want to see the limit increased to allow for them
to make the larger purchases easier. The Board suggested that they reach out to Tracee McKim
to see if there is a quicker way to pay of the card to make the large purchases easier.
Matthew stated that he had some updates on the rewiring project. He wanted to see how that will
work since IT will be a part of the project and working after hours to complete the project. The
Board stated that they would like to see IT communicate very thoroughly with the contractor.
Matthew stated that they have ordered a test unit through T-Mobile for the extension office for
internet. The current internet is not stable so they have ordered the test unit to see if it will
improve their internet services. If this service also works they would be able to move it to any
new location that they might have in the future.
Meeting adjourned at 11:57 am.
