School District Two's $122.3 million bond was a hot topic at the school board meeting Monday night. Board members discussed architectural services for the schools and other important issues.
School officials want to hit the ground running on the deferred maintenance for the elementary schools and construction of two new middle schools. Board members talked about A&E Architects and Integrus and their work in phase one in constructing the new middle schools. They want to keep the work local, so the money will stay in our local economy.
"We've already talked quite a bit about how excited we are that this community has given their trust in us in allowing us basically to repaint the school district through significant renovations," said Lew Anderson, SD2 facilities executive director.
The board encourages participation from the public. They will have planning and development meetings each month and invite community members to attend.

Streets that run for several blocks, without a single street light. It is a dark reality many residents throughout the Magic City face when the sun goes down. Leo Robinson lives on Monad Rd., east of 24th Street. He said if street lights were placed on Monad, safety for everyone would improve. Terry Smith, City Traffic Engineer, said the city is more than willing to work with anyone, on any street, which lacks street lights.

Hundreds of Hells Angels are coming to Cody for a national meeting this week. The motorcycle club apparently likes the northwest Wyoming town. They held their world run there in 2006. Police presence is heavy in Cody now.

Several counties in our area have issued fire restrictions. Yellowstone County has issued Stage One fire restriction, which limit campfires and smoking areas. Carbon County has moved on to Stage Two restrictions, which set limits on certain work that can be done during the hot hours of the day. Decisions like these aren't just made by the county, however. They actually take a lot of coordination between different agencies."We try to work very hard to coordinate that," says Carmen Thomason, wh...
