During a recent county commissioners meeting, concerns were raised regarding the Basecamp Glamping Igloos, located near Highway 390. Steven Coke, a resident and member of Citizens For Responsible Use of State Land, addressed the commissioners, highlighting significant issues surrounding the facility's operations.

Coke emphasized that Basecamp has constructed its facility without proper oversight or permits from the county, despite a state permit that mandates compliance with local regulations. He pointed out that the county had previously issued a notice of abatement to halt construction, asserting its authority over local projects. However, this action led to a lawsuit from the state against the county, which remains unresolved.

Coke expressed his discontent with Basecamp's recent application for a malt liquor license, arguing that it is inappropriate given the ongoing litigation and the facility's disregard for county regulations. He described the request as \"insulting\" to both the county's authority and its residents, urging the commissioners to deny the application for the liquor license. The discussion underscores ongoing tensions between local governance and state oversight in managing land use and public safety.
