He anticipates that both grants will be fully-expended/encumbered prior to the cut-off date. Hot Springs County Counseling Center Funds Request HSCCC Director Al Braaten and HSCCC board members Sharon Skiver and Bobbi Overfield appeared before the Commissioners to discuss the availability of the funds previously cut from the center's budget requests for the last two fiscal years. Mr. Braaten reviewed the budget cuts his agency has experienced during the last few years and the HSCCC board members emphasized the ways the center serves the residents of the county. In response to questioning from the Commissioners, Mr. Braaten indicated that, while grant funding has increased, those funds are not available for on-going operating expenses, which also continue to rise – hence the request for the $10,000.00 from the county. After a quick review of the current budget, Clerk Odde requested that this item be carried forward to the April 3rd Commissioners meeting so that he might review the options in depth and make suggestions as to if/where the funds requested might be available in this year's budget. This item will be placed on the April 3rd agenda for action by the Commissioners. Off-Road Recreational Vehicle Use of County Roads Designation Discussion Ray Shaffer reported that Josh Enos with the State Parks Division has requested designation of Grass Creek Road for off-road vehicle use, which would enable off-road vehicles to travel on the road without a license plate if they have a current ORV sticker.

After extensive discussion including input from Treasurer Mickey Jean Ford, R&B Supervisor Ray Shaffer, Wyoming Trails representative Steve Boyer, and Sheriff Lou Falgoust, the Commissioners declined to designate any County roads open to off-road vehicles without a license plate at this time, citing insurance and law enforcement concerns.

Lumley moved to approve the Unacceptable Driving Record Criteria as proposed by W.A.R.M. Mike Baker seconded the motion.
