Board Approved Fee Changes, Property Actions at WBS

The Board of County Commissioners approved an order regarding requested fee changes from the Planning Department during today's Weekly Business Session.

Following the public hearing that began the meeting at 9 a.m., the board moved in favor of an order transferring county property to Cave Junction. A property line adjustment for the 210 Tacoma property, with an expense of $11,000 to be reimbursed to the Property Reserve Fund, was approved 3-0.

A motion approving a resolution for the County Supplemental Budget for 2025-26 passed unanimously. Changes to the budget were requested by Firewise, Planning, Facilities, and the Human Resources departments, with a Firewise grant extension having been received.

During public comment, the public presented concerns for code enforcement, a West Picket property, and Southern Oregon Sanitations presence at a recent Commissioner meeting.

Other topics included a Pipe Fork purchase request, transparency and appreciation of the board, an offer for budget consultation, accessibility to the Anne G. Basker Auditorium, and ways to spread kindness this Easter Weekend.

The board approved the consent calendar, and the meeting adjourned.
