Lincoln County commissioners approve minutes and claim payments, OK Robinson subdivision plat; Castle Rock Ridge postponed
Summary
The commissioners approved minutes, paid two small claims totaling $4,878.57, approved the two‑lot Robinson subdivision final plat with 12 conditions, and postponed Castle Rock Ridge after an easement was discovered. Several public comments were heard on elections and cell towers.
At their July 1 meeting Lincoln County commissioners approved routine administrative items, paid two small claims, and approved a final plat for a small subdivision.
Minutes and claims A motion to approve the June 24, 2026 regular meeting minutes passed after a motion and second; the meeting record shows at least one commissioner voiced opposition during the vote.
The board approved two claims: one described in the agenda as Toruson versus Lincoln County (Urggon Alexander) in the amount of $3,933.96 and a second listed as Urggon Alexander Zadic / Magnolia Properties for $944.61. Both payments were moved, seconded and carried after no public comment was offered; the transcript records an expression of opposition during the votes but does not include a roll-call or named vote tally.
Planning and land‑use action Planning staff presented the final plat application for the Robinson subdivision, a two‑lot plat about five miles outside of Troy. Staff said the applicant met 12 conditions of approval, including required MDOT permits and DEQ approvals for water and wastewater. Commissioners moved and seconded approval of the final plat; the motion carried though one commissioner expressed opposition on the vote.
The Castle Rock Ridge agenda item was postponed after discovery of an easement issue; staff said the matter will return once outstanding materials are received.
Public comment and other business The board heard several public comments, including two substantial statements on election administration (one praising an elections staffer and another alleging possible irregularities) and a request that the planning department draft an ordinance governing cell‑tower siting near the Cabinet Mountain Wilderness. A resident asked that cash reconciliation reports be scheduled as a county agenda item next week and the clerk agreed to place it on the next agenda.
