Discussion County EMS Response Areas – Commissioner Stinson discussed Pond Creek possibly wanting to donate their equipment (ambulances) to the 522 Board. The Asst. District Attorney noted they would be able to do this and advised not to lease. Stinson also discussed that the BOCC would need to determine boundaries and decide if they want to declare Grant County a 522 District. He will find out if this supersedes anything, including the City of Medford. McClure has been reviewi:,g response time logs. Stinson believes BOCC will need to have a hearing but will get confirmation. If hearing is required, City of Medford, ESA, 522 Board, and public should be made aware so that they can attend. No action taken at this time.
Discussion Town of Lamont demolition lien letter – County Treasurer followed up on letter sent to municipalities in September, 2025, regarding delinquencies of taxes and mowing and demotion liens. The Town of Lamont’s legal representative responded to this letter, as it pertains to a specific property in the Town of Lamont. County Clerk’s office/ BOCC did not receive. Th_e town of Lamont has demolished a taxpayer’s property (2 Lots) with abatement costing $8790 and is requesting that the County Treasurer accept their Certified Statement. The lots have assessed $53/each. The Town of Lamont would like this to be put on the Tax Roll. The County Treasurer indicated the r.irop’:!r-ty owner is current on his property taxes. According to statute, property owner should have been notified before demotion (address shown that the Town of Lamont mailed to is not the correct address noted on the tax roll), a notice should have been posted, and a hearing conducted. If the County Treasurer and City Clerk agree they cannot collect, they can dismiss the lien. The County Treasurer has reached out to Benjamin Bowers, Asst. District Attorney and is waiting for response. She is not aware of any deadline to put this on the tax roll. Treasurer has been advised by the BOCC to wait and to direct any further questions or information from attorneys to the Asst. District Attorney.
