County to appoint new Clancy water & sewer board

With the Clancy Water and Sewer District (CWSD) board vacant after the May 22 resignation of sole member and board president David Leitheiser, it falls to the County Commissioners to appoint a new board. 

At a meeting on May 25, previously scheduled as a CWSD meeting, County Commissioner Cory Kirsch announced that invitations to apply for the board would be sent to every person in the district on May 26. Montana statute requires that the county name new members when none remain.

The deadline to apply is tight, June 7, allowing the Commission to appoint board members at its meeting the following day. “If we get more than five [applications] we’ll have to filter through them and try to get a good board here to move on,” Kirsch said. The appointments would be valid for the remainder of the former members’ terms, between one and three years.
