Will Collect Fees Due From Idaho Irrigation and North Side

County Attorney Janes W. Bothwell informed the county commissioners last week to demand payment for recording water contracts from Idaho Irrigation Co. and Twin Falls North Side Co. The board set a $5,208.20 claim against Idaho Irrigation and $9,892.70 against North Side, or sue in district court. The action follows an agreement from years past when contracts began, with books to be supplied, and seeks legal compensation at the proper rate. The outcome holds countywide interest as other counties pursue similar contracts.
