Executive Daines urges committee support for county turnover of district control and finances

Executive Daines distributed tables showing property taxable values and revenues for each city and the unincorporated areas and told the committee it should support efforts at the County to transfer control and control of finances to the fire district. The minutes record that Daines asked members to be ready to answer County Council questions about the need for a municipal services tax for unincorporated areas.

The minutes do not include detailed figures from the tables; they state only that the data were distributed and attached. As follow-up, Executive Daines was assigned to provide maps of district areas to accompany the tables and to coordinate the committee's email list with County staff so materials and outreach can be shared prior to County-level discussions.
