***THESE MINUTES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED BY THE COMMISSION***
June 7, 2011
The regular meeting of the Stanley County Commissioners was called to order at 8:04 a.m. by Chairman Jacobson with Commissioners Booth, Iversen and Scott present. Director of Equalization Don Wiedemer, Highway Superintendent Leo Sullivan, States Attorney Tom Maher, Sheriff Brad Rathbun, Emergency Manager Rob Fines and Auditor Kris Kroll were also present.
AGENDA: Motion by Scott seconded by Booth to approve the agenda. All voted aye. Motion carried.
MINUTES: Motion by Iversen seconded by Scott to approve the minutes of the May 16, 2011 special meeting. All voted aye. Motion carried.
HIGHWAY DEPT: Sullivan reported that there has been some equipment problems but all have been fixed to this point. Trucks have been hauling and employees working several hours since the flooding began. An estimated 300,000 yards has come out of the county’s pit thus far. Jacobson said that planning needs done on the fairgrounds. A pump came in yesterday and is at the shop. He told Sullivan to coordinate with Brad Lawrence on getting a discharge system set up. Sullivan stated that weed spraying will begin on Thursday.
2011 FLOOD: Jim Ulmen, Ken Bartholowmew, Phil Meyer, Kim Mortenson, Rob Allison, Tiffany Sanchez, Cindy Meyer, Dale Vizcarra, Rod Vizcarra, Ray Meligan and Larry McQuistion were all present. Phil Meyer asked if the county has any interest in diverting drainage and/or doing work on a stock dam that has already affected their development. McQuistion said that you have to be cautious when working with dams because of the nature of the soil. Jacobson stated that the entire community will have problems with any rains as storm sewers are blocked. He suggested possibly putting in a channel to divert water. Rod Vizcarra was told that the Comm. for the Frontier Road area is Brian Scott. Scott reported that there was no discussion on levees in their area. Jacobson said that the Corps stated where they were building the levees. Rod Vizcarra stated that he was told that Brosz Engineering had engineered a plan to go through Echo Point. Sanchez said that as a homeowner, seeing the work being done in the city, she feels that the county should have gone out and evaluated their situation. Sullivan stated that he took out 3000 sandbags to the area. Scott stated that the Comm. does not know what the Corps will do as it’s still unknown at this point. Meyer asked if the Comm. was aware that WCE had pulled their power 10 days ago. Jacobson said to remember that infrastructure is priority and that Mini Wachoni has power. Fines gave the public his number to contact him to eliminate any rumors. Fines gave basic statistics on snow melt in the mountains above and that it will affect this area. Sanchez is concerned that homeowners need notice if the Corps opens the emergency spillway. Fines said that they are urging those in control to avoid using the spillway. Fines reported that Stanley County was added into the Disaster Declaration on May 25, 2011. He also submitted a request for individual assistance and he is waiting on the approval. He will research everything further and get back to individuals as he gets the information. Maher asked if there is anything that they can think of that the county could assist with at this point. Allison said that they have boats in their addition and could use something to tie them to.
