Commissioners approve FY2026 Montana Aeronautics Grant agreement for county airport work
Summary
The Carbon County Board of Commissioners approved the FY2026 Montana Aeronautics Grant Agreement with the City of Red Lodge, the Airport Board and the Montana Department of Transportation, noting the agreement's language changed because of federal policy updates.
The Carbon County Board of Commissioners voted Feb. 5 to approve the FY2026 Montana Aeronautics Grant Agreement between Carbon County, the City of Red Lodge, the Airport Board and the Montana Department of Transportation. Commissioner Bill Bullock moved for approval; Commissioner Scott Miller seconded and the motion carried.
County staff told the board that the agreement's language had been revised to reflect recent changes in federal policy, but the meeting minutes show no dollar amount or specific project scope discussed during the vote.
Commissioners recessed briefly around the item to address other agenda business. The City of Red Lodge mayor, whose participation was noted earlier in the agenda, was not available for the meeting and a related cooperative infrastructure addendum for snow plowing tied to an upcoming skijoring event was rescheduled.
The county did not provide an implementation timeline or funding breakdown in the minutes. The board took no additional formal action during the meeting on airport-related projects beyond approving the grant agreement.
