Land rights talks hinge on private hearings for new state road
Beaverhead county commissioners met in special session to discuss right of way for a state highway route. Landowners along the proposed path were to receive private hearings starting with Woods Livestock Co. Terms offered included compensation for fencing and water access concerns, with several owners proposing to cover fencing or relinquish rights. The board delayed final decision pending further consideration and title checks, and Madison county officials agreed to coordinate on mutual interests.
