DES reports damaged generator; MT State Fund and MACo Trust provide updates
Summary
At the May 13 meeting Garfield County DES reported a new generator arrived with exterior shipping damage; MT State Fund outlined monthly safety meetings starting July 14, 2026, and MACo Trust explained HRA options via phone. No formal decisions were made.
Dixie Pierson told the Garfield County commissioners on May 13 that the county’s new generator arrived with exterior shipping damage; staff expect replacement parts and do not believe the unit was internally harmed.
Anne Miller said the state can provide assistance and that state services will continue even as questions about funding and requirements remain unresolved. Rob Sperle of the MT State Fund asked the board to consider monthly safety meetings on the second Tuesday of each month, beginning July 14, 2026.
Pam Walling joined the meeting by phone to review Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA) plan options and how those interact with Medicare and Medicaid. Karen Witt asked about available spending for the museum gift shop; the transcript records the inquiry but no dollar amount or decision.
These items were presented for information; the commissioners did not record any formal votes on the generator, the safety-meeting schedule, or benefit-plan options during the meeting.
