Commissioners Hold Public Hearing on Elk River Road Traffic Limit Proposal

The Yellowstone County Commissioner Meeting on February 24, 2023, kicked off with a moment of silence, setting a respectful tone for the proceedings. The commissioners swiftly approved minutes from previous meetings, ensuring that all records were up to date.

The main focus of the meeting was a public hearing regarding Resolution 23-14, which proposes to limit traffic on Elk River Road to local vehicles only. This marks the first public discussion on the ordinance, with a second hearing scheduled for March 7, allowing for further community input before any decisions are made.

Commissioners emphasized the importance of local traffic management, highlighting the need for safety and accessibility on Elk River Road. No action was taken during this meeting, as the commissioners await feedback from the upcoming public hearing.

As the discussions unfold, the community is encouraged to participate and voice their opinions on the proposed traffic limitations, which could significantly impact local residents and visitors alike.
