Building Permits & Water Issues


Anita Weston, Reporter
Rich Civic Times

GARDEN CITY, Utah. December 12 2013.  George Peart, Building Inspector, reported that there were 32 building permits issued during that past year.  The last permit was issued for a home to be built in Cherimoya.  Two homes will receive final inspections in the next few days—one in Bridgerland and one in Raspberry Patch.

George suggested that the City ask the owner of the new home on First West about his water log.  That well is running and the information from this well might help the City with their Master Water Plan.  It would at least give the City an idea of the volume of water being produced by that well.

It was noted that a culvert must be put in place across the driveway of the above mentioned home on First West.  It will need to be inspected when it is completed and is an item that was required when the building permit was granted.

It appears that there is an average of between 21 and 22 new water connections in the City each year.  The water plan is available, and should be considered whenever a building permit is issued.
