RANDOLPH, Utah. December 5, 2018.  Tom Weston, who has served 18 years on the Rich County Commission, was honored by the County as he steps down as a commissioner.  Weston said he is most proud of his work with the Sanitation Department.  During his tenure, the county automated the garbage trucks and added more trucks. The County now has a new compacter to grind up garbage in minutes rather than 10 hours at a machine at the landfill which makes the landfill more efficient.

He also pushed for more ambulances and now all three are four wheel drive,  making winter access easier. Weston said he never turned down an EMT budget request.  He also worked on getting the Manhead  and Cisco roads improved. 

A parting gift of spurs, with silver T W initials, was presented.  Weston hopes the County continues to update equipment.  He said he made a lot of friends whom he will miss. 

County employees and  family  stopped by to say thanks and eat cake.
