Letter to the Editor: Gallatin County Commission needs change
Published
8 years agoon
Over half the residents of Gallatin County live in our cities and towns, none of our county commissioners do. I’m running to provide the balance we need on the county commission. If we expect to encourage growth in and adjacent to our cities, towns and rural communities, we need a commissioner who walks the walk. I will work with all our rural and urban communities to retain their individual identities as they address the effects of rapid growth.
Big Sky and Gallatin Canyon provide a unique set of challenges for county government. To promote safe and quality construction, I support a countywide building inspection program. To help get working class folks from affordable areas to where the jobs are, I support a county contribution to the Skyline bus service and I will work to help with local workforce housing issues.
I will also support Big Sky’s efforts to gain the tools for self-sufficiency and self-determination. In 1998 I was the first to alert Big Sky residents of an attempt by the local sewer district to get a permit from state Department of Environmental Quality to discharge directly into the Gallatin River. I will continue to protect this critical public treasure.
I hope you can join me Wednesday, May 25 from 4-7 p.m. at The Corral just south of Big Sky on Highway 191 for a Candidate Open House. Bring your questions and just in case you like what you see, your checkbook. We’re on Facebook at Brian Leland for Gallatin County Commission and on the web at leland4countycommissioner.com.
We have to work together. I would appreciate your vote.

Event Details
My Barking Dog is a nightmare comedy that tells the story of Toby and Melinda, two lonely people whose lives are forever changed the night they encounter a starving coyote at their apartment building. Over time they grow to expect him, leaving ritual offerings to entice the coyote every night. Toby and Melinda forge a connection over this visitor and share curiosity and concern about his presence in the city. The coyote expands their world–until, one night, their world is shattered. Their lives are pushed suddenly into uncharted territory, sending them on a surreal odyssey that changes their city–and the world–forever.
Directed by LX Miller. Starring Max Schneider and Denise Hergett
