Conrad discusses trade of industrial lots with MDT; covenant limiting prior development removed
Summary
Council discussed a proposed trade with the Montana Department of Transportation: MDT would trade its in-town shop for two city industrial lots; the council or committee removed a covenant that had limited prior use and MDT would pave access to the industrial park under the proposal.
The Conrad City Council discussed a proposed land trade with the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) at its Aug. 8 meeting. Under the proposal MDT would trade its in-town shop/lot in exchange for two city industrial lots. Council members reported that a covenant that had previously constrained development on the industrial lots (originally envisioned for a hotel or fuel station) was removed by the committee considering the transaction.
As described in the meeting, the city would receive MDT's existing shop in town and MDT would pave the road out to the industrial park as part of the exchange. The transcript records discussion of removing the covenant and of MDT's interest in a trade; no formal vote or final agreement is recorded in the meeting minutes included in the transcript.
The Air Force meeting about missile silo updates noted on the agenda was canceled and will be rescheduled. The council also set a public hearing schedule for the budget, which will be open for 30 days and followed by a separate budget meeting.
Further legal review, mapping and formal motion would be required before any property transfer; the transcript does not show final action on the MDT proposal.
