Lewistown approves annexation petition and adopts Resolution 4191 for Bruce Reed property
Summary
The commission approved a petition to annex Lots 4 and 7 (school land plat) into the City of Lewistown to permit a family transfer and adopted Resolution 4191 to effect the annexation under the family‑exemption provision of state law.
The City of Lewistown commission approved a petition from property owner Bruce Reed to annex Lot 4 and Lot 7 (a school land plat) into the city limits and adopted Resolution 4191 to complete the annexation by petition.
City staff explained the petition was filed to allow a family transfer that requires the property to be inside city limits. The parcel lies adjacent to the city at the corner of G Street and A Street, the staff presentation said.
After brief questions from commissioners and members of the public about the annexation area and representation on related planning boards, a motion to approve the petition carried. The commission then considered and adopted Resolution 4191, which the city manager described as providing for annexation by petition and enabling the owner to use the family‑exemption provisions under state law.
The resolution passed on a recorded roll call. Commissioners did not specify any additional conditions in the motion; staff noted zoning and subsequent land‑use steps are handled separately if required.
Next steps: staff will record the annexation and proceed with any follow‑up administrative steps required to effect the family transfer under state law.
