Broadwater County commissioners approved a resolution creating a targeted economic development district committee and its bylaws, two 20-year airport hangar leases, the Oct. 1 minutes and a set of claims during a regularly scheduled meeting.
The actions took place after brief discussion and were approved by voice vote. The commission’s packet includes the TED committee resolution and bylaws, which the chair said will be advertised and open for 30 days and are posted on the county website.
The TED committee resolution and bylaws: Commissioner 2 moved to approve the targeted economic development district committee resolution and bylaws; Staff member seconded the motion. The motion passed on a voice vote. The chair said the bylaws stagger terms and that appointments will follow the 30‑day advertisement period.
Airport hangar leases: The commission approved two airport hangar leases forwarded from the airport board. Commissioner 1 moved to approve a 20‑year lease for Brian and Jackie Carroll for Lot 16; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The commission then approved a 20‑year lease for Dylan and Jessica Lancello for Lots 9 and 10. Meeting comments said all airport leases are $0.12 per square foot and require proof of insurance and paperwork before finalization.
Minutes and claims: The commission approved minutes from Oct. 1 and then approved a package of claims after reading the dollar amounts aloud. Among the claims listed during the meeting were: $247,962.24; $58,574.12; $75,316.53; payroll claims of $286,252.21, $286,402.63 and $286,199.82; $13,871.01; $43,782.47; $27,035.09. A large airport-related claim was read aloud but the amount as spoken in the transcript is unclear (presented in the meeting as “1,796,000. Dollars $2.10. 63¢”); that amount is reported here as presented in the meeting and is not independently verified.
