Commissioners add temporary bypass easement to consent agenda, authorize CNFR negotiations after executive session
Summary
The board amended the consent agenda to include a temporary bypass easement with Cole Draw Land and Livestock Company, later approved the consent agenda as amended, and after executive session authorized Ford Wyoming Center to enter CNFR contract negotiations and approved unspecified personnel actions.
Commissioners debated and approved adding an agreement with Cole Draw Land and Livestock Company to the consent agenda to allow construction of a temporary bypass at East Salt Creek (Cottonwood Creek draw) while bridge work proceeds.
A motion to amend the consent agenda to accept the contract was moved and seconded; the board approved the amendment by voice vote. County staff said the temporary easement will be limited to bypass use and that a separate construction easement will be negotiated later for permanent bridge or demolition work; staff indicated an initial payment of $5,000 for the temporary easement was discussed but that the final terms could vary depending on the design and duration.
Later the board went into executive session to discuss contracts, personnel and legal advice. After returning to open session, commissioners reported they had authorized the Ford Wyoming Center to enter CNFR contract negotiations and had taken personnel hiring actions; staff said an announcement about hires is expected soon. The consent agenda was then approved as amended.
Votes and motions recorded in the transcript were voice votes; the record does not include a roll-call tally for the consent-amendment vote or the executive-session authorization.
