County Commissioners Spend Time in Special Work Meetings

County Commissioners set aside time for two working meetings this week. One meeting was spent looking at how to set up a rural improvement district procedure. The procedure would give proposed subdivisions options for planning. Other options available now include forming a homeowners’ association or forming maintenance agreements for maintaining subdivision roads.

In another meeting, commissioners met with Great West Engineering planners to study the newly designed Three Forks flood mitigation plan. Since the Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA) has redesignated Three Forks’ flood plain map of the Jefferson River, Broadwater County residents who live in the Price Road and Old Town areas may be impacted by the changes, according to County Commissioner Darrel Folkvord.

In the coming months, DNRC and the County Commissioners will be holding public hearings about the changes to the flood plain designation. Stay tuned!
