COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho — North Idaho College trustees granted board chair Mike Waggoner blanket authority to make decisions about litigation on behalf of the college, two days before a hearing when a judge will consider whether to compel the college to turn over an investigative report to NIC President Nick Swayne.
The board voted 3-2 on the matter in a brief special meeting Wednesday night. Trustees Brad Corkill and Tarie Zimmerman cast the dissenting votes and argued strenuously against the move.
Waggoner confirmed the reason for the meeting was because of Swayne’s lawsuit, which alleges NIC violated Idaho public records laws by denying Swayne’s request for a copy of a report that Swayne says involves allegations against him by another NIC employee. A hearing in the case is set for Friday.
