Here's a news item from the Associated Press:  BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Officials in Boise County say they may file for bankruptcy in the wake of losing a federal lawsuit and getting hit with a $4 million judgment in the case. Commissioners in the southwestern Idaho county say filing for Chapter 9 protection may be the only way to continue delivering services to residents and keeping their legal fight alive. In December, a federal jury sided with a developer seeking to build a 72-bed treatment center and school for teens with mental illness and substance abuse issues. The jury concluded the county violated the federal Fair Housing Act by creating a series of unreasonable expectations for the developer. The county appealed and officials are meeting with the developer to reach a settlement. Commissioners passed a resolution Monday stating bankruptcy may be the only viable option.
