Grid United: Brent Johnson, John Ohlms & Hoa Tran, representatives of Grid United, informed the Board that their company is in the process of designing a high-voltage transmission line, which is proposed to traverse approximately 92 miles, 28 of which would be through Platte County. Chairman Shockley asked when the line may be built. Mr. Tran said their goal was to begin building in 2025 and have the line operational in 2028. Mr. Ohlms said speaking directly, and early, to landowners is their highest priority and their company is accustomed to changing electric line routes based on landowner requests or concerns. Executive Session: At 11:34 AM, Commissioner Mantle motioned, seconded by Commissioner Jolovich, to call for an executive session for personnel matters pursuant to Wyoming State Statute §16-4-405(a)(ii). The motion carried. At 12:25 PM, Commissioner Mantle motioned, seconded by Commissioner Jolovich, to adjourn the executive session where no decisions were made. The motion carried. Harris Park Rd.: The Board reviewed a proposed realignment of Harris Park Road. The Board expressed concerns regarding the proposal, specifically the inclusion of a steep curve, which increases the probability of washboards and would make snow removal far more difficult. Furthermore, the Board expressed concerns that the realignment could reduce access to public lands, which are currently accessible to the public. The Board favors leaving the road in its current alignment through Bureau of Land Management lands. There being no further business for board consideration, the meeting adjourned at approximately 12:35 PM. This proceeding was recorded by Clerk Ervin pursuant to Wyoming statute §18-3-402(a)(i)(C).
