Clarification

In last week’s issue of the Moorcroft Leader, in the article “Ag facility proposed”, FFA adviser Hugh Jenkins had inferred board approval for the barn when applying to the council for a variance. However, Crook County School District #1 superintendent Mark Broderson later advised that neither the ag facility nor any of the other departments’ requested projects has, as yet, been approved; the proposed FFA project is still under consideration.

Moorcroft Mayor Dick Claar said that, “They’ve been wanting to get that started here for a year or more because they’d had such good success at Hulett.” Claar explained that, as far as the town’s decision to grant the variance, the school board’s approval is not an issue.
