CLOSED SESSION REGARDING ADDITIONAL TAX DUE TO THE CITY OF WOOD RIVER FOR ANNEXED PROPERTY IN THE AMOUNT OF $78,947.67-Held closed session 9:56 a.m. to 10:07 a.m. 8. DISCUSSION & POSSIBLE ACTION CLOSED SESSION REGARDING ADDITIONAL TAX DUE TO THE CITY OF WOOD RIVER FOR ANNEXED PROPERTY IN THE AMOUNT OF $78,947.67-Quandt made a motion to refer the claim of $78,947.67 to the County Assessor Kristi Wold's bond, Bredthauer seconded the motion. County Attorney Marty Klein stated he did not believe they had the legal authority to make that motion, he suggested the board not consider that motion. Klein stated he can not tell them if they have the legal authority to do that, but he suspects they do not. He suggests the board does not consider that motion or vote against that motion. Lancaster stated the entity affected by the loss of revenue that could do such a thing? Is that what you're saying? Basically, in other words, the city of Wood River she asked Klein stated, I think the city of Wood River is the only entity that could try to attach to that bond or recoup from that bond. I do not believe the County has the authority to shift that claim which has been for roughly $78,000, I do not believe that we can the Hall County Board has the authority to move that claim from Hall County generally to the assessor's bond. I think that that is a claim that has to be made by Wood River against that bond if that's what they choose to do in response to the fact that the board is contemplating other motions with respect to that claim. I know the motion has been made and it's been seconded. So, you're discussing it now, but I would encourage the board to vote against this motion because I do not believe the county board has the authority to pass this motion particular motion or have the motion withdrawn.
