Commissioners dissolve Yellowstone County Park Board and begin park-plan adoption process

Jul 9, 2024

The board approved Resolution 24‑113 to dissolve the volunteer Yellowstone County Park Board and opened the first of two public hearings on Resolution 24‑114 to adopt a park inventory and regulations as parks management moves in‑house to Public Works.

The full story

Yellowstone County staff told commissioners on July 9 that the county plans to transition parks management from a volunteer Parks Board to an in‑house Public Works function. Because that shift changes the board’s operational role, staff presented Resolution 24‑113 to dissolve the Yellowstone County Park Board. No members of the public spoke on the dissolution; Commissioner Morris moved for approval and the board approved Resolution 24‑113 by voice vote.
