Page A-8 • Dmo> T r i m m - Wednesday. February 15. 2005 Fairgrounds restrooms work planned by county By Elaine Spicer Beaverhead County Fair grounds will soon have new restrooms, as Road Manager Ri chard Miller brought plans for the building to the commissioners for discussion Monday. The intention, according to Commission Chair Garth Haugland, is to have the Anaconda Job Corps construct the walls and ceiling of the building, after the concrete slab is poured and plumbing run to the site. A master plumber will then hook up the plumbing. Miller also discussed concerns over dust on Stone Creek Road, with the speed of vehicles travel ing on the road part of the talk. Haugland noted the county is pos sibly looking at instituting a re duced speed limit on the road. He also commented that use of Mag nesium Chloride for dust abate ment will most likely occur ear lier this year due to low precipi tation and, thus, high dust con cerns. County Attorney Marv McCann and Deputy County At torney Wally Congdon visited with the commissioners on the topic of cloud seeding. A bill has been introduced in the Montana House of Rrepresentatives to al low cloud seeding in Montana, as state statute currently does not allow the procedure. Haugland noted entities in Idaho have al ready proceeded with cloud seed ing. \We discussed what the im plications would be if the legisla ture allowed cloud seeding in Montana. The western counties have the advantage of taking the moisture from the eastern coun ties, if it works,\ said Haugland. \It certainly is occuring to the west and south of us.\ The attorneys also discussed two area roads in view of legal issues, including Stevenson Road and Jeff Davis Road. Both are ongoing projects, said Haugland, and the attorneys are consider ing their legal advice as to how to proceed on those road issues. Courthouse Facilities Manager Chris Kraft brought to the table the issue of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Kraft described recent conversa tions with a consultant. He was authorized to conduct a full site review of all county buildings with the consultant, according Haugland. A one-lot minor subdivision, Mussard Minor, received prelimi nary plat approval. The subdivi sion is located approximately one mile northeast of the city limits of Dillon, off of Highway 41, and would create one 4.66 acre resi dential tract from an existing ag ricultural parcel. It is located north of and adjacent to the Rebich Minor Subdivision and the Evergreen Farm Lots Survey. According to Haugland, the planning board discussed the de velopment at length, particularly in relation to the access road. A variance was issued in order to allow use of an existing right-of- way as access, as it does not meet the county's minimum 50-foot right-of-way width for access on local roads. The access route would also need to be extended, with additional footage added to access the property itself. The commissioners signed a resolution requesting Governor Brian Schweitzer and the Mon tana State Legislature to \take the necessary steps to protect both the health and safety of the Mon tana cattle herds and Montana beef consumers from actions by the United State Department of Agriculture to relax the United State import restrictions for coun tries known to be affected by Bo vine Spongiform Ecephalopathy disease\. Doer of Good Deeds Award- ------ Lima High Class of2005 Doer of Good Deeds The Lima High School Class of 2005 receives the first-ever 'Doer of Good Deeds Award' from Beaverhead White Hat Coalition President Stan Smith at the recent Beaverhead Chamber Appreciation Social. The students were commended for their selfless donation of hard-earned senior trip moneys to Lima teacher Karla McGraw, who is facing breast cancer. Lima students win good deeds award The Beaverhead White Hat Coalition presented its first annual \Doer of Good Deeds\ foundation award for 2004 to the Lima High School Class of 200S recently. The presentation was held at the Chamber of Commerce Appreciation Social. A unique plaque made of wood carved with a cowboy hat was presented to the entire class. Special certificates were presented individually to each member of the senior class. Each award read as follows: \The Beaverhead White Hat Coalition proudly recog nizes the Lima High School Class of 2005. In appreciation of unselfish acts of kindness and personal sacrifice toward others. You are a testament to the strong character and great potential of the people of Beaverhead County. Your good deeds have made a difference in our community .'The legacy of the White Hat Coali tion will be in its expression of gratitude.” . ■ , . ■ ■ Of the Lima students, who donated their hard-earned senior trip funds to an area teacher facing breast cancer, White Hat Coalition President Stan Smith said, \the folks of Beaverhead County are very proud of our young people from Lima. Their actions represent the best of our values as Montanans and as Americans.\ Smith continued, \all of you have our highest esteem. On be half of the citizens o f this county, I congratulate all of you on your upcoming graduation. I share in your hopes for a bright future full of great achievements as you enter the world outside Lima and Beaverhead county. You have already achieved our sincere admiration and thanks.\ The award was created as a way to encourage the community to look for ways to become better neighbors and friends, said Smith. \Our goal is to remind folks that a good deed toward another can in turn bring good to all. It is not so much the acknowledgment of one person as it is the culture from which we come.\ Smith said the award not only recognizes the deeds of the young people to whom it was given, but that it \reaffirms the character of our community. The strong mores we are raised with are essential to the backbone of our country. Even the smallest endeavor to maintain the best of our customs can make a difference.* Criteria for nominating,£0 individual for the annual award are: • Any person or persons not working on behalf o f any organization or charity or political gain whose good deed or deeds genuinely brought good to one or many • A positive example of unselfish behavior during the twelve months from January to December of each year Eight more nominations for the award were received, all of whom are no less important to the community, said Smith.
