Madison County commissioners approve routine consent items, task order and two resolutions
Summary
The Madison County Board of Commissioners approved the consent agenda including a $564,817 bridge grant, a $64,433 task order for a petroleum-release investigation, reestablished the Madison and Ruby Valley Rural Ambulance District and created the Big Sky Hospital District (one abstention).
Madison County commissioners approved a series of routine and project-specific actions at their meeting, including the consent agenda, a contractor task order, and two resolutions creating or reestablishing local service districts.
The board unanimously approved the consent agenda, which included minutes from May 19 and May 26, 2026, and a Montana Department of Transportation award of $564,817 for the Judy Lane bridge replacement project. The vote was taken by voice after a motion and second and carried as recorded by the chair.
On the Old Madison County Road Shop Twin Bridges Petroleum Release Investigation, commissioners approved a task order in the amount of $64,433. Commissioners asked whether the expense could be charged to the next fiscal year or withheld until July 1 and were told there may be reimbursement; staff was asked to include commissioners on contractor email correspondence with the state DEQ.
The board approved Resolution 26-2026 to reestablish the Madison and Ruby Valley Rural Ambulance District. Later, the board approved Resolution 27-2026 creating the Big Sky Hospital District; one commissioner abstained on that vote, which was recorded in the meeting minutes.
Other routine approvals included authorizing the planning director to attend an industry workshop and accepting a required administrative letter related to an audit. The meeting concluded after the board recorded the audit finding that an ARPA fund for FY 24–25 had been overexpended and accepted the required procedural letter related to that audit.
What happened next: commissioners directed staff to continue follow-ups on the task order, include the board on contractor communications, and to return with additional information where items were continued or required further review.
