Grant County Court designates judge to participate in Eagle Peak cell‑tower negotiations; vote recorded with one abstention
Summary
The court designated Judge Hamsher to represent the county in negotiations for a proposed cell tower on Eagle Peak; the motion passed Jan. 21, 2026 by a 2-0-1 vote (one abstention).
The Grant County Court designated Judge Hamsher to participate in negotiations for placement of a new communications tower on Eagle Peak. Commissioner Rowell moved for approval; Commissioner Wilson seconded. The minutes record the vote as Ayes: 2, Abstains: 1.
The announcement follows earlier remarks by Commissioner Rowell reporting a VEMA Hydrogen presentation about a proposed drilling operation near Canyon Mountain and broader natural-resources discussions; Rowell said the Eagle Peak communication site discussions will proceed with county participation. The court’s designation authorizes participation in negotiations but does not finalize any lease, placement, or contract terms at this meeting.
