Granite County voters decided to fund the hospital mill levy in a vote of 829 to 383. According to the Clerk and Recorder’s Office, 64 percent of ballots were returned. In precinct one (north of Broadway in Philipsburg) there were 280 votes for the levy and 44 against and in precinct two (south of Broadway) there were 303 votes for and 87 against. In Precinct 10 (which encompasses Drummond) there were 114 votes for the levy and 181 against it while in precinct nine (which includes Hall) there were 132 for and 71 against.
Granite County Commissioners have made their decision on the Preliminary Plat for the South Jericho Bay Subdivision. In a two to one vote, Commissioners Cliff Nelson and Suzanne Browning decided to approve the subdivision proposal with 106 conditions they mitigated with the developers. Commissioner Maureen Connor voted against the motion. “No, although I would note there are certainly mitigations,” said Connor, “but the answer is no.”
Rep. Jim Jenner (D-Philipsburg) passed along some bad news to the Chamber of Commerce. What began last year as an attempt to distribute $3.6 million in federal funds has ended abruptly and left four Philipsburg projects wondering what to do next. “HB645 was passed by the legislature to provide millions of dollars for historic preservation and the Governor has put a freeze on it,” Rep. Jenner told the Philipsburg Mail.
Editorial
Sometimes there are easy decisions and sometimes there are hard ones. Our Granite County Commissioners were faced with a hard one in deciding the fate of the South Jericho Bay subdivision and they spent days deliberating and listening to public testimony, before they made their decision.
