BISBEE - The Cochise County Board of Supervisors will hold a work session at 3:30 p.m. today to discuss recent board-of-equalization hearings and the appeals process, as well as the county's policy on taxation of conservation easements.

During the 9 a.m. regular meeting Tuesday, the board will hold a public hearing prior to making a decision on the type of fee that will be required for inspection of manufactured homes.

The supervisors plan to enter into intergovernmental agreement with the Arizona Office of Manufactured Housing and adopt the office's fee schedule for the enforcement of installation standards for manufactured homes and factory-built buildings.

They will also discuss a resolution to hire a district engineer for the Babocamari Road and Traffic Signal Improvement District with the use of county funds.

Developers of a 36-lot subdivision in the Three Canyons area of Hereford will look to the supervisors for approval on the final plat.

Two work sessions will also be discussed and possibly approved. One is on direction for the highway and flood plain department. The other is the 2006 election.

Under the consent agenda the following will be considered for approval:

- Authorize distribution of the Local Transportation Assistance Funding. Ten different organizations that provide transportation assistance for the elderly, disabled and poor are vying for the county's $154,310 share of state funding.
