Pocatello Development Authority Meeting 07 15 26

The City of Pocatello's Pocatello Development Authority held a meeting on July 15, 2026, focusing on several procurement and budget-related matters. Key discussions included reviewing proposals for hiring a new treasurer, with two qualified candidates considered and a decision deferred pending clarification on hourly rates and scope of work. The board approved the fiscal year 2026-2027 budget, noting expected tax increment revenues from the South Fifth Urban Renewal Area. Updates on the Monarch building demolition and foundation work were provided, including considerations for additional repair costs related to structural "pigeonholes." The board approved Deaton and Company's annual audit proposal for 2027. A significant procurement-related decision involved denying a $15,000 task order for amending the South 5th Urban Renewal Area to include additional property owners, opting instead to seek cost-sharing from those property owners before proceeding. The meeting concluded with no further procurement actions taken.
