The Bee Hive Fire was at 180 acres, with no containment as of Tuesday morning, Bureau of Land Management spokeswoman Caroline Kilbane reported. The Paradox Trail Fire, discovered when aerial resources on the Bee Hive Fire were fire-spotting, stood at 12.5 acres as of Tuesday morning. A dry lightning storm on June 7 is thought to have sparked the fires in the remote, pinon-juniper terrain on BLM-administered lands in the Paradox Valley. On June 8, initial attack crews responded to the fires to accurately determine their size. Air attack resources have been responding to support suppression efforts due to the challenging terrain and limited access to the area, the BLM’s Tuesday update said. |

Last week began Monday morning pretty typical. That is to say, with taut tensions between Montrose County School District Board of Education President Neisha Balleck and Superintendent Dr. Carrie Stephenson simmering just below a thinning veneer. By Tuesday evening, however, this tension was exploding into full public view, with the school board considering the superintendent’s suspension in a slapdash special meeting. Again. Little more than 24 hours earlier — just meeting the legally required timeline — Balleck had scheduled the June 2 special meeting to consider placing the superintendent on “paid, non-punitive, non-disciplinary leave.” Stephenson was alerted Monday morning that the meeting was being called. |
