Butte-Silver Bow Study Commission approves final report, orders Montana Standard summary
Summary
At a June 29 meeting the Butte-Silver Bow Study Commission approved its final report by a 7–2 vote and directed a 1/4-page summary ad to run twice in the Montana Standard within 30 days of approval.
The Butte-Silver Bow Study Commission voted to approve its final report on June 29, 2026, with seven commissioners voting in favor and two opposed. The motion to "Approve the final report" passed following discussion under unfinished business.
The commission directed that "the final report summary will be published in the Montana Standard as a 1/4-page ad, twice in two weeks, and within 30 days of final report approval." Votes in favor were recorded from Brandl, Dennehy, McCormick, Casey, Shaw, Silk and Stepan; Perdue-Dolan and Thielen were recorded as opposed. The tally recorded in the meeting minutes was 7 yes, 2 no. The commission did not record who made or seconded the motion in the transcript.
The vote concludes the Study Commission's stated work on the report; the minutes record the publication requirement as the next step for public notice. The commission then moved on to a planned July recess and set its next regular meeting for Aug. 3, 2026 at 5:30 p.m. in Council Chambers.
The action is documented in the meeting minutes and in the transcript entry for unfinished business and the formal motion to approve the final report.
