McCone County commissioners approve tax adjustment, CDBG draw and airport insurance; table subdivision regs and refer public-health contract for review
Summary
At their regular session, McCone County commissioners approved tax adjustment No. 0233 ($1,543), signed off on CDBG disbursement paperwork and approved an airport insurance form; they tabled subdivision-regulation review and said a public-health task order needs attorney review because of insurance requirements.
McCone County commissioners met in regular session and approved several routine financial and administrative items while tabling other business for follow-up.
The board approved the meeting agenda and later moved to approve tax adjustment number 0233 for $1,543 after a motion by Commissioner Ty Taylor and a second by Commissioner Jess; the motion passed 3–0. The board also reviewed and approved payroll for May 2026 and several vouchers, including warrants numbered in the 83,600s and an automatic deposits batch noted in the minutes.
Commissioners reviewed and approved an insurance agreement for the Circletown County Airport after a motion by Commissioner Lonnie Jensen and a second by Commissioner Taylor (vote recorded as unanimous). The board also took a final motion to proceed with a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) draw/related fund action; the motion passed unanimously.
Several items were tabled. The board again postponed a full review of proposed subdivision regulations to allow more time for the public meeting and additional review. A separate CDBG administrative-funds item was tabled because invoices and administrative entries were incomplete.
Public-health contract language also drew concern. Board members flagged a clause in a public-health task order that appears to require insurance levels beyond what local vendors readily can obtain; they asked that the document be sent to John for review before signing and discussed the possibility of striking or adjusting the insurance language.
In public participation, contractors and local officials raised routine service and facility matters: a vendor (Pyro Egg Services) offered to spray noxious weeds for the county, the Town of Circle mayor discussed a proposed law-enforcement contract and staff reviewed a proposal for a new county website and logo (a staff member abstained from that portion of the discussion).
The board ended the agenda after approving routine items and agreed to return to several tabled items at a later meeting.
