SR 13 Montana Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Confirm governor's appointees for the board of barbers and cosmetologists

This Senate resolution (SR 13) confirms two appointments made by Montana's Governor to the Board of Barbers and Cosmetologists. It specifically approves Bryan Kirkland (Stevensville) and Katie Fontana (Great Falls) to serve on the board, with terms ending in 2027. The resolution follows Montana law (section 5-5-302, MCA) requiring legislative confirmation of such appointments. This procedural step formally authorizes the appointees to serve on the regulatory board that oversees barber and cosmetology licensing and standards in Montana. The resolution was adopted by the Senate on April 7, 2025, and signed into effect.
