The commission referred two public-works bid packages to staff for review, approved $5,000 from park development funds and $3,000 in PILT money for Cloverleaf Meadows Park, set public hearings to expand three RSIDs on March 5, and approved claims and the consent agenda.

At the Feb. 20 meeting, Yellowstone County commissioners handled a series of routine procurement and finance items.

Clerk staff opened sealed bids for a Public Works asphalt overlay (Second Street) and for scour repair at Bridge 09-28 on Byam Road (Clarks Fork River). Bids for the asphalt overlay included Riverside Contracting ($1,269,008.19), Askin Construction (~$1,691,450) and Knife River ($1,433,568.25).

Commissioners also approved $3,000 from PILT discretionary funds for the same park petition after brief discussion of historic PILT allocations.
