Loading...
Summary
At its Nov. 8 meeting the Broadwater County Commission unanimously passed a resolution supporting MBAC recertification, approved the Jefferson Springs boundary relocation, granted a preliminary-plat extension for Rolling Glen Ranch Estates, and approved three sets of county claims and payroll.
Broadwater County commissioners on Nov. 8 voted on several routine but binding items, including a resolution supporting recertification of a regional economic-development organization, approval of a boundary change for a private ranch survey, an extension of a minor-subdivision preliminary-plat deadline, and several financial claims.
Economic development: Eric Seidensticker (speaker 22) outlined Montana Business Assistance Connection's (MBAC) role as a Certified Regional Development Corporation and explained the 1:1 matching requirement between Department of Commerce funding and federal EDA dollars. The commission voted to approve a resolution supporting MBAC's recertification.
Boundary relocation: The commission approved a certificate-of-survey boundary relocation for Jefferson Springs Ranch (presented by surveyor Greg Finck), a multi-tract realignment that crosses Gallatin and Broadwater counties. The commission made a motion and voted to approve the relocation.
Timelines and subdivisions: Rolling Glen Ranch Estates owner Steve Kavanaugh asked for an extension of his preliminary-plat decision window to Jan. 31, 2024 to accommodate ongoing work. The commission voted to grant the extension and scheduled the item for follow-up in mid-January if necessary.
Claims and payroll: Commissioners approved three sets of claims: $20,420.13 (first set), payroll of $267,633.38, and a final claims batch of $61,163.42. Each item was moved, seconded and passed on voice vote.
These items were recorded in the meeting minutes and closed without extended debate. Several items that will require follow-up (detailed affidavits for a family-transfer matter and minor punch-list items related to road work) were left for staff attention.
