2020: Harley Wilcox is on the public side of the table
Teton County's FY2020 financial statements list Harley Wilcox as District 2 commissioner. That is the earliest anchor point in this timeline: Harley Wilcox is not just a later private-market player. He begins in this record as part of county government.
That matters because later private-side appearances are easier to understand once you see the public-office starting point.
2021 to 2023: Harley Wilcox reappears on the private land-use side, and West Group is based in Victor
By 2021, county planning records show Harley Wilcox as the applicant for an M-1 code amendment. By 2023, the planning record shows him seeking scenic-corridor review for five lots in Alpine Acres Subdivision. In the same broader period, Harley's brokerage page presents him as a developer, investor, and builder at West Group Real Estate.
West Group's own site says the company is based in Victor, Idaho and markets Victor, Driggs, Tetonia, Jackson and beyond. So the timeline does not just show one person changing roles; it shows a Victor-based real estate platform tied to one of the recurring names in county planning fights.
2024: Anthony Wilcox and Harley Wilcox keep showing up in county rooms
Official 2024 county records place Anthony Wilcox in repeated comment appearances on ethics, committee video standards, Zoom and GIS policy, subdivision issues, and map-layer requests. The May 14, 2024 planning record also places both Anthony Wilcox and Harley Wilcox in opposition during the same hearing.
That matters because it widens the pattern beyond one former commissioner. The Wilcox name is appearing repeatedly in county process while Harley is already established on the private real estate side.
The party lane is running in parallel, not separately
The public Teton County Idaho GOP page lists Ed Yeager as county chair and Heather Wilcox as Precinct 7 leader. The same page says the organization advocates for families, property owners, farmers, entrepreneurs, and natural resources.
That matters because the county party is not floating somewhere outside the land fights. Its own language lines up with the same property-and-resource politics running through the local disputes.
2025 to 2026: the state pushes Driggs 160 forward anyway
The Idaho Department of Lands' July 15, 2025 recap says the Land Board approved the Driggs 160 for public auction. The later reconsideration packet shows Ron James declining to join the county objection letter. Idaho's current sale page now lists the parcel as an active auction with a $5 million reserve and routes buyers through Bottles Real Estate Auctions.
That matters because the timeline culminates in a real state land sale. After years of recurring local names in office, planning, party structure, and brokerage work, the process ends with a live public-land auction that still raises the same local power questions.
What this timeline does and does not prove
It proves a recurring local cluster. It shows dated overlap among former county office, Victor-based West Group Real Estate, public meeting participation, party structure, and state land-sale decision-making. That is enough to justify scrutiny.
It does not, by itself, prove a single coordinated conspiracy among every person named. The cleaner and more durable point is that the same names keep resurfacing where Teton County power and land are being fought over.
