McDonald County minutes record discussion of dam-stabilization plan near River Ranch Resort
Summary
Meeting minutes from Dec. 11, 2024 show McDonald County commissioners and River Ranch Resort owner Dustin Shurback discussed a proposed dam-stabilization plan developed with Allgeier, Martin and Associates, Inc.; minutes note state permits tied to fish and wildlife regulations may limit work to fall, and commissioners requested deeds and legal review.
Presiding Commissioner Bryan Hall, Eastern Commissioner Jamey Cope and Western Commissioner Rick Lett met Dec. 11, 2024 with Dustin Shurback, owner of River Ranch Resort in Noel, Missouri, to continue discussion of a proposed plan to stabilize a dam on or adjacent to the property.
The meeting minutes state that a plan developed with Allgeier, Martin and Associates, Inc. is viewed by participants as the preferred outcome for stabilizing the dam. Minutes note that state-level permitting tied to fish and wildlife regulations would likely authorize work only for a limited window, projecting that stabilization work would occur in a fall season if permitted.
The minutes record that commissioners asked staff to obtain copies of deeds and legal descriptions for the property and that the commission planned to consult its legal counsel about next steps. No formal vote or final decision on the stabilization plan is recorded in the minutes.
The commission listed County Clerk Jessica Cole as present for the meeting. According to the minutes, the commission planned to continue its work and reconvene on Dec. 16, 2024.
