Rich County Commission Meeting April 6, 2022

10:00 Travis Eborn presented the Commissioners with the survey from people around the County about creating a Recreation Center. He had over 165 respondents. Most of the respondents were in favor of the idea. There were some questions on how to proceed from the survey. Also, Travis wondered if there could be a Recreation District Committee set up for the County or a City. Bill Cox is meeting with the Community Impact Board next week. Mitch Poulsen from the Bear Lake Reg. Commission talked about how the CIB would like a well-defined scope for them to help with a project. Bill suggested a planning grant and will work with Mr. Carver from BRAG. The Commissioners were asked how the TRT taxes might help with funding a project. Bill reminded them that the oil companies had built a wonderful facility in Evanston and then when the downturn in the economy happened it was left to Evanston to try to maintain the facility. He suggested that the TRT money could be used as maintaining the facility. Many other questions were pondered. The Commissioners thanked Travis for his work and they will get back together soon to report on their findings.

(Bess wondered to herself about the possibility of inviting a YMCA contact to help plan-she knows of a beautiful facility in Spokane that is run by the YMCA)

11:00 Mitch Poulsen, of the Bear Lake Reg. Com. presented his grant application of $70K for the Outdoor Rec. trail that has been designed. He is working with Conservation groups from Utah and Nevada for their input and help in mapping the trails. Mitch will also ask for TRT monies to help in the trail maintenance.

11:15 Jordan Mathis from Bear River Health Dept. presented the annual report on how the Health Dept. helps Rich, and Cache Counties. They felt that they as a dept. had learned some important lessons from covid. One of the ideas to come out of the Covid time was that families would like to be able to drive up to a window/door to get their shots or doctor visits while in their own cars so children and parents wouldn’t get exposed to other people’s germs. Estee Hunt the public relations rep. reported that the Health Dept. ranks 8 out of 17 counties which is a nice place to be on the scale of helping people.

There are many classes and helps that people may take online. Please go to their website. One of the really good things that has been done for our County is the fact that vaccines for our youth are readily available and stored in a special fridge so they don’t go bad.

The Commissioners also discussed the possibilities of an East Side waste water set up. Developers are also encouraged to stub in a sewer line to the new homes.

Bill praised the BRHD and all the work they have done. They were able to tap into volunteers called the Medical Reserve Corp. which provided 11,000 hours.

11:45 Krystal Butterfield, Rich Co. Recorder reported on duplicate taxing to a few parcels on SWGolf Course lot owners. The Commissioners agreed to her suggestions on how to eliminate the extra taxing.

11:55 LouJean Argyle talked about a parcel of land that no longer exists and how to mitigate the proplem.

11:59 Jason Lutz, representing Staker/Parsons, talked to the Commissioners about a license for a ready mix plant at the Travis Hobbs facility. He needs a special use permit from the state and will send it in to get his new license for the business.

(Bess would like to state here that our County Commissioners are on top of so many things that we as a community do not give them the credit they deserve. )

Obituary: Greg Thornock

 

Gregory Rex Thornock, 73, passed away peacefully in his home on March 31, 2022 after battling Lewy Body Dementia with Parkinsonism and Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma.  Greg, or ‘Scruddy’ as he was known to many, was born on October 21, 1948, to Aden Kay Thornock and Kathleen Rose Rex Thornock. Greg was the youngest of four children and was welcomed to the family by brothers Gaylon Kay, Aden Gordon and sister, Gloria.  He grew up on the family’s Otter Creek  ranch north of Randolph, Utah, which was the only place he ever wanted to live. He was taught to work hard and learned the principle of the law of the harvest well.  During his youth Greg milked cows, drove tractors, farmed, irrigated, fed hay to the cattle from the back of a hay wagon, and gathered cattle on horse-back. He had a close relationship with his grandparents who lived right next door.  As an adult, fall was his favorite time of year - when the hay was in the stack yards and he could spend time on his horse rounding up the cattle, always with several cans of Mountain Dew in his saddle bag.

Most of Greg’s life was spent on Otter Creek Road, with the exception of school at Ricks College and Utah State University, and two years in Canada after receiving a call to the Western Canadian Mission. Greg loved Canada and the people he met while there. After returning home, he joined the Wyoming National Guard.  Somehow, and much to his chagrin, he managed seven summer camps while spending six years in the Guard.  He met his wife, Colleen Picklesimer in 1972 while at USU.  They were married on June 22, 1973 in the St. George Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  Seven wonderful children were born to this union and life was never dull in the Thornock household!  Greg supported his family by working at the Kemmerer coal mine where he drove coal and overburden trucks, and later became a foreman.  His off-work hours were spent on the family ranch.  After seven years at the mine, Greg became a full-time rancher, which was all he ever really wanted. This eventually led to a partnership with his father and brother, Gordon. As time went by, the ranch was split and Greg’s son, Brady joined the family business. Greg was active in the Rich County Farm Bureau for over 30 years and was the district chair of the Rich Conservation District for several years.  Greg loved Rich High School sports.  He loved playing, coaching and watching basketball and football. For many years he attended the State 1-A Basketball Tournament without missing any games played by any of the schools. As a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Greg held many callings, but always maintained that being a Primary Teacher was his favorite.

Greg is survived by his wife and children; Trenton (Mindy), Laurie (Matt) Woodruff, Troy  (Denise), Tyler (Camille), Brady (Christi), Sherrie (Justin) Hall, and Millie (Michael) Vickery, 25 grandchildren and 1 great grandchild.  He was preceded in death by his parents and brother, Gordon, and niece, Nikki Thornock. The family wishes to express their gratitude to the many friends and family who expressed love and concern for Greg over the past 4 years.  They extend a special note of gratitude to Atlas Homecare and Hospice, Kylie Argyle, and Natalie Cornia for their exceptional care.

Visitation was held Sunday, April 3, 2022, and funeral services were held Monday, April 4, 2022, at 11:00 a.m.  at the Randolph Chapel.

  Thank you so much for reaching out to me! I’d love to answer your questions.

1. Why am I applying for the position?

The Good Stuff by John Brown

 

You can have one person per square or two people. And just like four square, those wanting to play line up by square one, waiting for someone to get out.

We did it with a huge group.  Our line always had 12-15 people in it, but you never waited long because the games moves fast. We laughed, teased each other, and had a great time.

The other great thing was that we could play it with folks of all ages. We had folks from 55 all the way down to 8 playing. And they all enjoyed it.

If you’re wondering what to do for the next family reunion or group activity, I think you’ll love Crossnet.

*

The next fun activity is a shootout card game called Bang!

It’s played with 4-7 people. Each player is delt a unique Wild West character with special abilities and a role card. Some of the roles are on the side of law and order. Some are on the side of the outlaws.

As you play you shoot it out, try to figure out who the outlaws are, get life points back, acquire guns, steal cards from each other, avoid the dynamite, and more.

The game moves quickly. You can be done in less than 30 minutes, which is perfect for a family or date night. It’s one of our favorite family games.

If you’re looking for a new, fun, quick game to play, give Bang! a try.

I think you’ll be pleased you did.

State of the Lake by Randall Knight

 

The Bear Lake fisheries meeting held on March 31 was led by the Utah and Idaho fishery management teams.  The team leaders were Scott Tolentino for Utah and Carson Watkins for Idaho.  They shared a review of the current status of all the fish species and they also shared the objectives and goals of the bi-state Bear Lake Fisheries Management Plan with a very informative slide presentation.  The two teams have similar ideas on how the fish in the lake should be managed with a goal of maintaining an acceptable population of the five indigenous species (Bear Lake cutthroat, Bonneville cisco, Bonneville whitefish, Bear Lake whitefish, and Bear Lake sculpin) along with the lake trout which is not native. 

Because Idaho has a less restrictive health requirement for their hatcheries, Utah stocks all the fish in Bear Lake.  This includes 170,000 Bonneville cutthroat trout that are 7 inches long for the past 20+ years.   Both Utah and Idaho have been improving the spawning ability and installing fish exclusion screens on irrigation diversions in the four creeks that empty into the lake.  Idaho works on Fish Haven and St Charles Creeks and Utah works on Swan and Big Spring Creeks.  Utah also stocks approximately 17,000-20,000, 7 inch long lake trout annually. 

 

Because each cisco are difficult to sample with gill nets, hydroacoustic sonar equipment is used to determine their population numbers.  Dip netting and gill nets are used to get statistical data for the average size of other fish along with tags placed on some when they are caught in the nets, spawning traps and creel inspections.  This information is used to determine the fishing regulations for the fish that eat the smaller fish in an attempt to maintain the desired balanced populations of predators to prey species. 

 

In January of 2022, a change was made to the fishing regulation to allow anglers to keep two trout regardless of whether the fin is clipped and a proposal was made by Idaho to remove brook and rainbow trout from St. Charles Creek to reduce predation on the just hatched native Bear Lake cutthroat trout. They know the last option will be controversial and will require discussions with the public and especially the land owners the water flows through in the next couple of years. 

 

Utah and Idaho will be updating the Bear Lake Fisheries Management plan since most objectives and goals have been met even though the plan won't expire until 2025.  The agencies plan to host a future public meeting sometime next spring in order to keep the public informed of any additional changes as well as the progress on the updated Fisheries Management Plan.  

 

The county delegate meeting with the candidates will be April 11 in Laketown at 6:00 PM

First case of COVID-19 in mule deer confirmed in Utah

 

SALT LAKE CITY — While COVID-19 was confirmed in white-tailed deer in parts of the U.S. last year, the virus was recently confirmed in Utah mule deer for the first time after the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources submitted samples taken from deer during winter health assessments.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service has been collaborating on a research study to test various wildlife species for the presence of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19). As part of the study, DWR biologists collected nasal swab samples and blood samples from deer during the annual helicopter captures where biologists perform a health check and place GPS collars on the animals. From November to December, samples were taken from roughly 280 deer statewide and were sent to two USDA labs in other states for testing.

On March 22, the APHIS’ National Veterinary Services Lab in Ames, Iowa confirmed a case of the SARS-CoV-2 delta variant in one of the samples submitted from a female mule deer in Morgan County. Only one deer tested positive for the virus from the nasal samples, but several other Utah deer had the antibodies in their blood samples, indicating the virus had been in the deer population prior to the capture. 

“While it is confirmed that mule deer are susceptible to this virus, the deer that we took samples from did not show any clinical signs of the illness, and there isn’t any evidence that it is killing mule deer,” DWR State Veterinarian Ginger Stout said. “There is also no evidence that animals, including mule deer, are playing a significant role in spreading SARS-CoV-2 to people, and the available research suggests that the likelihood of getting COVID-19 from an animal is quite low.” 

It is unclear how the mule deer was exposed to the delta variant of COVID-19. It is possible it may have been exposed through people, other deer or another animal species. 

There is no evidence that people can get COVID-19 by eating meat from an infected animal. However, hunters should always practice good food hygiene when processing harvested wildlife by doing the following:

• Don’t allow contact between wildlife and domestic animals, including pets and hunting dogs.
• Do not harvest animals that appear sick or are found already dead.
• Keep game meat clean, and cool the meat down as soon as possible after harvesting the animal.
• Avoid cutting through the animal’s backbone and spinal tissues, and do not eat the brains of wildlife.
• When handling and cleaning game meat, wear rubber or disposable gloves. Don’t eat, drink or smoke while handling the meat.
• When you are finished handling and cleaning the meat, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s APHIS will be conducting further research on the potential effects of SARS-CoV-2 in free-ranging mule deer in Utah and other Western states.

ZIONS BANK DONATES $500 FOR SENIOR CITIZEN HEALTH SCREENINGS

                                                                                                           
MONTPELIER, Idaho; March 24, 2022 — Zions Bank has donated $500 to the Bear Lake Valley Health Care Foundation to support the annual Seniors Health Fair. The donation will support general testing, lab work and preventive medical assistance for low-income and underserved seniors.

 Steve Allred, vice president and manager of Zions Bank’s Bear Lake Valley branch, presented the check March 23 to Bear Lake Valley Health Care Foundation Executive Director Shane Johnson.

“Zions Bank is happy to help defray the costs of providing health care to our seniors in the community,” said Allred. “The Seniors Health Fair plays an important role in helping our senior citizens receive the medical treatments they need."
