At the October 6, 2026 Bannock County Commissioners meeting, commissioners approved moving forward with spending $44,000 in 2024 Homeland Security grant funds, which must be used by the end of February. The proposed project would replace the county’s discontinued Cambium Wi-Fi equipment at the courthouse and several agencies with Extreme equipment already used at other county sites. Staff expected an updated estimate of $24,704 for the Wi-Fi work and discussed potentially using the remaining funds for radios, including for fire districts, depending on delivery timelines; the motion to proceed with grant spending passed. Commissioners also approved CDM Smith Task Order 15, concerning a breakdown of work associated with $2 million and including landfill pilot-study work. Staff reported promising study results and discussed ongoing landfill cell and floodplain planning; no separate task-order amount was stated.

The board also approved $1,500 for cremation expenses in indigent-services case 2026-0035, denied case 2026-0036, and included the release of two liens in the approved motion. Commissioners approved writing off two uncollected Event Center accounts of $1,700 and $5,000, and approved resolutions 2026-70, 2026-71, and 2026-72, including authorization to reallocate funds, along with the consent agenda. No competitive solicitation or vendor-selection process was discussed.
