Brockway dog versus livestock issue. The evaluation from the appraiser is in, and
the replacement of breeding stock needs to be discussed. There was a lengthy
discussion about the impact of this decision on the valuation of other cases, since
the County sets aside $500 a year to handle these cases. An attendee
representing the Brockways asked if the authority is based on what the County
has done in the past, or whether it is dependent on statute. He suggested that
this is not an appropriate conclusion. If the County simply does not have the
money, it should be stated as such. The only value shouldn't be the meat
processing value.
Ms. Prante said that they are not determining that the value of the animal is only
for meat. They are saying that they have a statute that provides against the loss
from marauding dogs, it has never been designed to protect pureblood stock. It is
not fair to charge all of the taxpayers for stock that should be insured by the
owner.
Staff said that statute does not establish a method for determining value. In the
past, this has been done through information from the County Extension Officer.
It has been based on the weight on the hoof. This one is valued at $360. The
Board needs to make two findings: the horse was killed due to the dog attack;
and the value of the animal to the County. It has to be made for this purpose
only, and how much of the dog fund would be expended in this particular issue.
(A long discussion ensued.)
Ms. Prante said that the livestock owner has other avenues to follow. The
attendee rejected the amount offered, as it would only complicate any claim
against the dog owners. However, they are not withdrawing their claim at this
point.
There are several different evaluations involved here. The Board can offer some
funding but not base it on the value of the animal.
Appointment to Special Road District #8 in La Pine, Robert Fleming to replace
Everett Dunlap.
