Bonner County commissioners voted Tuesday to seek further clarification on a protection order against Commissioner Steve Bradshaw filed earlier this year by Commissioner Asia Williams. The vote came after a deputy was found to be recording executive sessions.
District 3 Bonner County Commissioner Luke Omodt was chosen early last week to replace Commissioner Steve Bradshaw as the chairman of the board of commissioners.
The Bonner County commissioners are working to schedule a resident workshop following discussions Tuesday about requiring a septic permit before a building location permit can be issued.
The chairman and commissioners must come together as elected and compensated leaders and address issues occurring during meetings. Terminating the ability for members of the community to comment is not a solution. Not reporting out to voters and taxpayers on district activities is not an option.
