Clyde Park council approves engineering services, snow‑plow MOU, subdivision fee update and several permits
Summary
At its April 14 meeting the Clyde Park Town Council approved Great West engineering services for subdivision review, authorized a Memorandum of Understanding with Park County for snow plowing, adopted Resolution No. 475 updating subdivision fees, and signed multiple site and livestock permits. The council also postponed a decision on speed bumps and set follow-ups on street renaming and cemetery board formation.
The Clyde Park Town Council on April 14 approved a slate of administrative agreements and permits intended to keep local projects moving while setting follow‑up steps on several community items.
Mayor Wiley called the meeting to order at 7 p.m. and C/T Stacy Mills presented the treasurer’s report, which showed February utility billing of $15,447.94 with $19,767.19 collected. After reviewing claims warrants, Council member James Walsh moved to approve the treasurer’s report; Council member Brian Eckenrod seconded the motion, which the council approved.
In new business the council approved Great West Engineering Project No. 1‑24144 to provide a subdivision administrator and engineering services; the town record notes the applicant will pay the associated fees. Council member Brian Eckenrod brought the motion, Council member Dave Sarrazin seconded, and the motion passed.
Council member Eckenrod also moved that Mayor Wiley sign a Memorandum of Understanding with Park County for snow plowing services; Council member Teresa Saari seconded and the council approved the MOU.
On land‑use administration, the council adopted Resolution No. 475 to revise the subdivision fee schedule after a motion by Council member Saari and a second by Council member Walsh.
Several site and permit items were signed. The council approved site and livestock permits for 404 Main Street West (a chicken coop/shed and associated livestock) and conditionally approved a site permit for new construction at 109 1st Street East for Bank of the Rockies. In the Bank of the Rockies discussion, Council member Roger Chandler said a borrow pit will be needed to prevent site flooding and Council member Brian Eckenrod raised questions about commercial square footage and minimum lot sizes under town code; Council member Saari moved to conditionally approve the permit and Council member Chandler seconded. Mayor Wiley will hold final signature pending the Planning Board meeting the following evening.
Other administrative items included donation of a hose reel and hose from the town’s old fire truck to Paradise Valley Fire (motion by Council member Chandler, seconded by Council member Eckenrod), and the purchase of a roadway paint cart, stencils and paint for striping (motion by Council member Walsh, seconded by Council member Saari). A proposal from Mayor Wiley to install two additional speed bumps on each side of the park was discussed and tabled to the May 12 council meeting for further consideration.
A resolution to form a cemetery board and appoint members was tabled to the May 12 meeting for additional discussion and appointments.
The meeting concluded with a motion by Council member Roger Chandler, seconded by Council member Saari, to adjourn at 8:57 p.m.
What happens next: several items require follow‑up before final action — Mayor Wiley will await the Planning Board review on the Bank of the Rockies permit, Council member Chandler will contact Hartman Drive residents about a possible street‑name change, and the cemetery board resolution will return to the May 12 agenda.
