Katy Moeller reports Boise County’s commissioners have spent the past couple months trying to figure out how to pay off the balance of a $5.4 million legal judgment. They plan to outline some of those options — including a possible legislative remedy — at meetings around the county this week.

The commissioners will discuss a bill by House Republican Caucus Chairman Ken Roberts, R-Donnelly, that could give the county an option to raise more tax money than state law now allows. The bill also could make it easier for the county to get a long-term bond to pay the judgment over time.
