City Cemetery Strategic Plan
M E M O R A N D U M TO: MRA Board of Commissioners FROM: Chris Behan, Assistant Director DATE: November 16, 2020 RE: Missoula Cemetery Strategic Plan (North Reserve-Scott Street URD) At its October 17, 2019 meeting, the MRA Board approved financing one-half of the cost up to $12,750 for a consultant to draft a Strategic Plan for the Missoula Cemetery, which is within the North Reserve – Scott Street Urban Renewal District (NRSS). The Strategic Plan was substantially complete last spring but Covid-19 and some recommendations the Cemetery Board needed to consider, extended the schedule for the City Council consideration of the Strategic Plan until now. L.F. Sloane Consulting, a cemetery planning, management and operations firm with a 38-year history of planning and implementation projects across the country, authored the Strategic Plan. The City Cemetery is currently a component unit of the City’s Public Works Department. The 2014 NRSS Master Plan recommends that the Cemetery create short and long range strategic plan “to assure its relevance and viability in perpetuity, and to arrive at an understanding of future land needs”. The Master Plan made some broad recommendations regarding the Cemetery property but at the Cemetery Board’s request, avoided specific recommendations without more in-depth study. Sloane’s analysis of the Cemetery found that, at the current rate of burials, there are about 7,000 plotted gravesites remaining in the area the Cemetery area uses. That represents about 200 years at the current burial rate. Sloane recognized that the cremation rate is higher in Missoula (and Montana) than much of the rest of the country with many cremains scattered, kept, or buried elsewhere and had recommendations where and when to expand cremain walls and crèches. -
December 18, 2020 Fish Consumption Guidance Updated for Portions Of
Media contact: Trevor Selch, FWP Fisheries Pollution Biologist, 406-444-5686 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: December 18, 2020 Fish consumption guidance updated for portions of Clark Fork, Bitterroot and Blackfoot Rivers in western Montana MISSOULA – The State of Montana Fish Guidance Board, which includes Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP) and the Departments of Environmental Quality (DEQ), and Public Health and Human Services (DPHHS), has updated the fish consumption guidance for all species of fish on a 148-mile stretch of the Clark Fork River and tributaries in western Montana in response to new research results. Guidance now recommends avoiding consumption of all species of fish from the Clark Fork River’s confluence with the Bitterroot River, just west of Missoula, to the confluence with the Flathead River, near Paradise. Slightly revised guidance is also in place for rainbow trout and northern pike on an upstream section of the Clark Fork and for the Blackfoot and Bitterroot Rivers. New data was collected to assess chemical contaminants including dioxins, furans, and PCBs in fish tissue in a study area on the Clark Fork that extended from approximately 30 miles upstream of Missoula to 100 miles downstream. Testing in the area is underway as part of water quality monitoring around the former Smurfit-Stone Container mill site. Upon review of the study results, new guidance was issued based on high levels of contaminants in the fish tissue. The source of all the contaminants found in the fish has not been attributed. The study only looked at contaminant concentrations found in the muscle tissues of northern pike and rainbow trout, but the same “Avoid” guidance extends to all species present in the Clark Fork River near Missoula (such as brown trout, whitefish, small- and large-mouth bass, northern pikeminnow, and sucker species) because similar food habits, habitat use, and life- span suggest they could also contain chemical concentrations at potentially dangerous levels. -
