Broadwater County meeting roundup: project briefings, legal‑advertising contract, floodplain permit and claims approved
Summary
At its Dec. 13 meeting the commission approved weekly public project briefings by the county administrative officer, named MT43 News as the county paper of record, approved a floodplain permit for an irrigation pump site, and passed routine minutes and claims.
Broadwater County commissioners approved several administrative and permitting items at their Dec. 13 meeting.
Project briefings: County Administrative Officer Bill Drai introduced weekly public project briefings to be held at 2 p.m. on Mondays to inform the public and media about county projects (solid waste, budget items, TIF/TED projects and related fiscal notes). The commission voted to authorize the briefings; meetings will be listed with other county meetings and are not commission meetings.
Paper of record: Commissioners approved a legal advertising contract naming MT43 News as Broadwater County's newspaper of record; legal notices will be published in MT43 News going forward rather than the Helena Independent Record.
Floodplain permit: After staff described the Toston (Tuss/Tosson) Irrigation District's project to replace an aging intake and headwall on Crow Creek and said relevant permits and agency reviews (U.S. Army Corps, Fish, Wildlife & Parks, DEQ) were completed, the commission approved the Great West Engineering floodplain development permit for the pump site. County staff said a landowner's comments about cattle safety and noxious weeds were received and addressed.
Minutes and claims: The commission approved minutes from Nov. 29 and a series of claims and payroll items as presented.
Each motion passed by voice vote during the meeting.
