Notes from Rich County Commission Meeting held Sept. 7, 2022

 Discussion was held on the cement culvert on North Eden creek on the east side of Bear Lake. Something I learned was North Eden Creek is 21 miles long and at one time had 2 resevoirs.

Bike path discussion at the cut.

General Plan by Mitch Poulsen from Bear Lake Regional Commission-Plan passed.

Changes in the County Subdivison plat ordinance for combining lots passed.

Discussion on the Marina Expansion.

Juneteenth was discussed and approved to state law.

Randall Knight-Garden City Fire Board had questions as to how to go about raising taxes to pay for First Responders. The Rich County attorney will review the use of TRT monies and bring information to the next board meeting.

Discussion was held about ATV's on roads. If a class road is gated due to overuse then ATV's use can be restricted. You may ask for a class D road map from Kystal Butterfield.

Discussion was held about Beach use above 5925.65". Rich County ordinance mirrors the Sovereign Lands Beach Information which includes staying back 100 feet from the shore, no fires, and clean up after your dog.

Noxious Weed Ordinance-Rich County will follow the State Weed information and T.J. Hoffman has been doing a good job in trying to keep weeds sprayed. There is a Rich County Weed Board that meets once a year.

Kim Wilson as the Secretary for the Rich County Ambulance brought information about the charges for an ambulance ride. The Ambulance Board decided that to transport a client would be $1,000 plus mileage of $30 per mile.. (All of us should check our insurance and make sure we are covered)!

Rich County will continue to pay the Employer Election for employees.

The minutes were approved with the changes from Agriculture land to Commercial for Travis Hobbs.
