The Garfield County Commission meeting covered routine business, commissioner reports, and several substantive items: approval to advertise a request for qualifications for airport planning/engineering services; updates on county road and facilities projects; discussion of oil/diesel storage and potential county ordinance to require containment and capacity limits; a request from the Henryville fire chief for expanded life- and fire-safety inspections of short-term rentals and commercial properties; a citizen request that the county sponsor BLM backcountry airstrip (SF-299) applications; and an extended discussion with U.S. Forest Service representatives about timber sales, sawmill support and interagency coordination.
