11:00 a.m. Kirk MacGregor regarding Ordinance 15 and 36. It appears that 15 which was regarding building on a flood plane has been repealed, however ordinance 36 still states the requirement to have a building permit to build on a flood plain. Brandt stated that ordinance 36 isn’t really being enforced due to the outdated mapping of the flood plains. Idaho County has told FEMA that they will enforce the ordinance as soon as they receive the updated flood plain mapping. The only thing that the person planning to build might run into is problems getting funding from a lending institution.
James Zehner regarding access to assessment maps. Sentry Dynamics from Post Falls, Idaho is requesting copies of all Idaho county survey scans. They already have our GIS data and paid $25 dollars, but they want all of the digital scans that we have. Zehner has asked other assessors what they are charging for their digital copies he said that some counties charge some and some charge a lot. Kootenai County charges $3000/ per year for all scans. Zehner suggests we charge $0.25 per scan. Zehner will come up with a for sure amount and meet with the commissioners in a couple of weeks to decide on an amount.
11:35 a.m. Meeting Adjourned
