The Deer Lodge City Council approved reappointments to the Deer Lodge Valley Conservation District board, confirming Jeff McQuarrie and John Thompson as urban supervisors with terms expiring Dec. 31, 2025.

The mayor read a letter from the conservation district requesting the reappointments and noted the positions are appointed by the mayor because a majority of the district lies within the city. "These guys have been on the board for quite some time," the mayor said when recommending reappointment. With no other applicants, the mayor asked for council consent; the council approved the reappointments by roll call with six ayes.

Why it matters: The conservation district oversees local conservation interests that affect land use and resource management in and around Deer Lodge. The two appointments maintain continuity on the district board while the council continues to accept interest for future vacancies.

Next steps: The appointees' terms were recorded as expiring Dec. 31, 2025. No additional action or ordinance change was taken.
