RANDOLPH, Utah. July
3, 2019. Steve Liechty, Rocky Mountain
Power, told County Commissioners about the financial contribution that RMP
makes to the county. They support the Fun
Run, Rich Rodeo, and set up poles at fairgrounds for the new addition. He gave $2500 from his budget, but said the
county should apply for the RMP Foundation grants. There are four cycles in this grant: They
fund Environment and Civic Enhancement, Arts and Culture, Health Safety and Wellness for Senior Citizens and Education and Research. The grants are about $2500 on average. More

Garden City and Laketown have not adopted the franchise fee
which would let them earn more money.
Randolph earns $14,653.88 and Woodruff earns $5,565.38 per year.
They participated in the road widening project on the East
side of Bear Lake at an estimated cost of $400,000.
There are 3921 customers served with 30,975,934 kWh delivered. Rocky Mountain Power pays $196,798 in taxes. They also paid paid $16 million to upgrade
the substation to connect the new solar farm.
Lot Smart is another program that everyone contributes to
this in their bill. HVAC, compressed air
system, irrigators, county projects can have free audits to see what can be done
to save electricity. The county did this
with the senior citizen center and with a grant redid the building with LED
lights which saved a lot of money.
