The Cody City Council approved several board appointments at its Nov. 6 meeting.
For the Yellowstone Regional Airport board, the council appointed Tim Hopkins to serve the remainder of a two-year term created by a resignation and directed that Hopkins’ appointment be effective immediately so he may begin filling the vacant seat. The council also appointed Heather Mortensen to a three-year term (beginning Jan. 2026). Cindy Baker presented the appointments and noted the council generally staggers terms to preserve continuity on appointed boards.
For the Planning, Zoning and Adjustment Board, the council approved appointments of Dan Shine and Erin Welty to three-year terms beginning Jan. 2026. The slate was presented with no public comment and carried on voice votes.
Motions were moved and seconded on the floor and the council approved the appointments; council did not attach special conditions beyond the standard term start dates and the one immediate effective date for Hopkins.
