Commissioners approve consent agenda backing local grant applications and permits
Summary
The Carbon County Board approved a consent agenda that included a letter of support for a Beartooth RC&D economic development grant, an amendment to a Conservation and Resource Development Division grant agreement, a tourism grant letter for the fairgrounds, an encroachment permit for Project Telephone Company/Nemont, and scheduling of election judge training on Feb. 23, 2026.
At the Jan. 22 meeting the Board approved a consent agenda that bundled several administrative approvals and letters of support.
Items listed in the consent agenda included a letter of support for a Beartooth RC&D (RC&D) ORE Economic Development Organization Capacity Building Grant application, an amendment to a grant agreement for the Conservation and Resource Development Division, a letter supporting a Montana Tourism Development Grant application for the county fairgrounds, an encroachment application and permit for Project Telephone Company/Nemont, and confirmation of Election Judge Training at the Joliet Community Center on Feb. 23, 2026.
Commissioner Bill Bullock moved to approve the Consent Agenda; Commissioner Scott Miller seconded and the motion carried. Myrna Lastuskey of RC&D had joined online earlier in the meeting and left after the consent-items discussion.
Why it matters: The consent agenda advances grant applications and permits that may secure outside funding or clearances for local projects. The transcript lists the approved items but does not provide funding amounts or additional conditions.
Next steps: Administrative staff will process the letters of support and the encroachment permit application as approved under the consent agenda.
