Prosecutors to attend all BOCC meetings
SANDPOINT — Bonner County prosecutors will now be required to attend all Bonner County commissioners’ regular business meetings, including executive sessions, after a motion was approved Tuesday morning.
During the meeting, Commissioner Luke Omodt read Idaho Code 31-2607, which states the prosecuting attorney is the legal advisor for the board, and must “attend their meetings when required and must attend and oppose all claims and accounts against the county when he deems them unjust or illegal.”
Because of this, the commissioner motioned to have legal counsel sit in on all meetings and executive sessions. He felt it pertinent as the three commissioners are tasked with managing roughly $75 million, and he wants to ensure it’s done right.
