SANDPOINT — Bonner County commissioners voted last week to approve drafting a letter to external auditor Hayden Ross regarding the status of an audit of the Bonner County Fair Board.

In recent months, the county has heard multiple statements from various departments claiming that either the commissioners were responsible for the yearly audit of the fair board, or, on the flip side, that the fair board was responsible for auditing itself.
