August 2018

August 7, 2018:

The Fremont County Board of Supervisors met in regular session on Tuesday, August 7, 2018, in the Fremont County Courthouse Boardroom, with Hickey, Graham, and Hendrickson present. A quorum was declared, and the meeting officially called to order at 9:00 a.m. The agenda was approved as posted. Minutes of the previous board session were read and approved. 

Also present for this meeting was Sandy Parmenter with the Valley News Today, Karen Mullins with SOCS Webhosting, Kenneth Brown with Hometown Pride, Gregg Connell with SCIA, Mike Glenn, Rebecca Castle with Golden Hills RC & D, Susan Shepherd, and IT Director Arnold Emberton.  

The board discussed the Tourism Board opening. Ruth Paper’s term expired on June 30, 2018. The board would like the opening to be posted on the bulletin board in the hall and on the website. The opening was posted August 7, 2018. 

Karen Mullins with SOCS Website Services met with the board to discuss SOCS web hosting. She explained the benefits of their services such as ADA compliance, each department having their own section for data, and free training and much more. The website could allow local cities, groups, and organizations to post items to central website and/or calendar. It would also promote tourism by having all items in one location.  

Becca Castle met with the board to discuss the RTCA Countywide Trails Map. She presented maps of hard surface trails and soft surface trails throughout the county. She stated that most counties review these maps and have adopted them as part of the comprehensive plan or adopted them by resolution. Adopting and supporting these trails may help to secure funding for grants in the future. Castle will provide a sample resolution for the board and this will be placed on the agenda at a later date. 

At 9:50 a.m., Troy Housh, Maintenance, joined the meeting. 

Mike Glenn met with the board to update them on the trail project between Sidney and Hamburg. Three phases of planning must take place. This will require the beginning of the trail at the Lewis and Clark Trail on Bluff Road. Then it must go between Bluff Road and Highway 275. Two challenging features are crossing Highway 2 and a creek crossing at one point. Glenn would like to emphasize the need for a strong planning group as was formed for the Admiral Trail. Glenn had suggestions of trail planners. He suggested Dave and Beth Mincer, Speck and Bev Hendrickson, Eric and Vicki Sjulin, Bill Barrett, John Connor, Dick and June McClure, Dan and Mary Whitehill, Chuck and Twila Larsen, Nancy Ohrt, and Bill and Deb Taylor to list just a few. He would like to see this local planning group to form to take some of the responsibility off the board of supervisors.  

Glenn also discussed the partnership with SCIA. He believes that they partnership with SCIA will only work if their bias toward the Highway 59 corridor becomes a huge bias to the Highway 275 corridor. He thinks SCIA needs to take an interest in the west side of the county. Glenn would like to see the Supervisors of Fremont County get together with a consortium of groups in Fremont County. Hickey and Graham stated that they are already doing that with Hometown Pride and other groups. Hickey stated SCIA is going to look at the west side of the county including the I-29 corridor and housing all over the county when the agreement is in place.  

Motion made by Hendrickson to approve the new hire resolution for the Fremont County Attorney. Motion carried unanimously.
