Assessor Schmidt reported that her office has begun assisting with the building permit intake
process following the vacancy of the administrative assistant position in the zoning department.
Chairperson Carr explained that the duties of the former assistant are being distributed among
the Assessor’s Office, Public Health Office, and EMA as the county works toward consolidating
services for improved efficiency for both citizens and county operations. Assessor Schmidt and
Zoning Administrator Jessy Willadsen have revised the permit application form to align with the
new fee schedule approved by the Board of Supervisors on March 31, 2026.
With no further business to discuss, Chairperson Carr declared the meeting adjourned at 6:04
