City staff explained the ordinance adds a $10 charge for an additional residential recycle cart (biweekly collection) and creates a commercial recycling line item. Ty (city staff) said the apartment sewer rate will be standardized: each apartment will be charged 75% of one equivalent residential unit (ERU) to address inconsistent billing practices in which some apartments had been charged the full residential rate and others the commercial rate based on estimated water usage.

Theresa (councilmember) asked about the ordinance’s effective date. Ty clarified that the ordinance establishes the rates effective April 1, 2025 for the sewer changes but that recycling collection and its billing will not begin until the city finishes delivery of recycle carts (no earlier than June 1 as discussed); the recycling ordinance language governs the start of collection and billing. Ty said, \"the billing doesn't start until all the cans have been delivered or June 1.\" Staff noted provisions for hardship discounts and existing homestead/circuit-breaker credits will remain available for qualifying residents.

Councilmember Dave moved to adopt Ordinance 25-02 amending Title 1, Chapter 1.15 of the Morgan City Code to add the second-recycle-can rate and the apartment sewer rate; a second was recorded and the ordinance passed with recorded “Aye” votes. The mayor declared the ordinance adopted.

The ordinance sets the apartment sewer rate and the additional-recycle-cart fee; staff will implement billing changes once cart delivery is complete and will process eligibility for discounts for qualifying residents.","Morgan City adopted Ordinance 25-02 to add a fee for a second curbside recycling cart and to establish a specific apartment sewer rate (75% of one ERU); the ordinance sets an April 1, 2025 effective date for the sewer rate, while recycling service and billing will start after all city carts are delivered.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_46":92,"_48":93,"_50":94,"_52":95,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":96,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":97,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6640226,"Council backs grant application to upgrade Riverside ballfield with lighting and new infield dirt",861,2062000,2923000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2556212-ea50da714857246ba91fa91e114921c4&start=2062&end=2923","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2556212-ea50da714857246ba91fa91e114921c4/thumbnail_2062000.jpg","/articles/6640226/Morgan/Morgan-County/Utah/Council-backs-grant-application-to-upgrade-Riverside-ballfield-with-lighting-and-new-infield-dirt","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6640226-7f64c3e2b8495065db38615592aaad36/orig.mp4?Expires=1773704453&Signature=cDBhEH7GfM5ai3qbWlwncVvUOcYu8FNfSY9kIHV32z87V1tMDb~qNg5Ce4gyAeLEPWv1WgmkB1XNoYaZnipBLK-qpdipd7HU3aEPTj5-vS6C7aRN83LsJdFzHyVIxxIZcTmulz2Bc8e-nrwfKUhOuJeCjFAhOizr38ZI2W2jS9G04DaBidJKJIPZDVBYvvZcKFcUsMI1UnZ~OZOki~zR2ho4aE8-VhI0XXqWW-vQZV82AEfIBDO9XDuDunhcGz61XG4zXreJpF8an~j8Zw0ecge4Ff5uu97K7FrI0DEvrjqoZ2w2YOwhaUNQylNaNBjLVvP1TDsLdpS6uIxZoa5~tg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Morgan City Council on March 11 unanimously approved a resolution supporting a grant application to the Utah Division of Outdoor Recreation to rehabilitate the Riverside Park ballfield, replace infield dirt and add lights to make the diamond tournament-ready.

Ty (city staff) said the new funding window for the division’s Community Parks and Recreation (CPR) grants now includes ball fields and that the project would replace packed, unusable infield material and install lighting. Ty provided preliminary cost figures: \"the dirt and grass is 67,000, and the lighting is a hundred and 70,000,\" and said the overall grant request would be roughly $240,000. The grant requires a 40% local match; Ty said the match would be split with the county so the city’s share would be about $45,000 if the grant is awarded.

Councilmembers discussed increased recreation demand and tournament potential. A speaker with experience in regional youth baseball noted organizations such as the Rocky Mountain Baseball Association are short on fields and that upgraded facilities could host multi-day tournaments that bring overnight visitors and economic activity. Ty said the recreation department would coordinate with comp teams so scheduling does not conflict with city-run programs.

Eric (councilmember) moved to approve Resolution 25-05, with a staff-suggested wording change to the resolution’s “whereas” clause; Tony (councilmember) seconded. The council voted “Aye” and the motion passed unanimously.

Ty emphasized the grant has not yet been awarded and that staff would return with any required county partnership agreement and details on in-kind match or maintenance arrangements if the application is successful.","Morgan City approved Resolution 25-05 supporting an application to the Utah Division of Outdoor Recreation’s community parks and recreation grant to replace infield material and add lighting at Riverside Park ballfield; if awarded, the project would cost about $240,000 with a roughly 40% local match split with Morgan County.",{"_33":99,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":100,"_41":101,"_43":102,"_45":103,"_46":104,"_48":105,"_50":106,"_52":107,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":108,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":109,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6640229,"Council grants final acceptance to Pheasant Run phases 1 and 2, pending $14,825 payment",373,1758000,2131000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2556212-ea50da714857246ba91fa91e114921c4&start=1758&end=2131","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2556212-ea50da714857246ba91fa91e114921c4/thumbnail_1758000.jpg","/articles/6640229/Morgan/Morgan-County/Utah/Council-grants-final-acceptance-to-Pheasant-Run-phases-1-and-2-pending-14825-payment","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6640229-b75b039f1be3612128e1986b3c213446/orig.mp4?Expires=1773704453&Signature=HJt926~V4v3uIzROPeRIHDGM6WyHe1XNG3~eSA2Y8ScuTnUw1AetAT3rQgCBYkjnZKrWF11MJq1-lgF5IIdGK2~8xOCX2rtEPJlGdpZ6wcw3Xt3XqJeBe0r-Wt5Po-8ngeaMmudCEcZWLoantC6NXRKL8~~E27~eBTfC8ZMlQkkBjk0RaNQtQs-E27-jzBFaG3yNuKtq5xxfVMD5efYulA4dG~hPTdnTv~4xLv~vXq8GsA6WB-opqD30LG5OWZwgUoqycNlYWR2AyfCFU3WChbYsWW6NvPtcMWl0tqk7~lgNaUBKE0q3Xx5BiFOfhNAFOTYGqldt66Uh21XxNPcOtg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Morgan City Council voted unanimously on March 11 to grant final acceptance of Pheasant Run subdivision phases 1 and 2, contingent on the developer paying $14,825 to fund correction of a detention pond and other subdivision fees.

Ty (city staff) told the council the subdivision infrastructure has been largely in place for about three years but minor items—fencing, sidewalk repairs and a low spot in the detention pond—remained unfinished. The city obtained a bid to correct the pond and will perform the work this spring once the developer pays the quoted amount. Ty said the city intends to improve the pond area above the minimum repair requirement, making it more park-like.

Tony (councilmember) moved to accept final acceptance for phases 1 and 2 \"pending upon the developer paying the city amount owed for the Detention Basin. That amount is $14,825 and then another fees associated with the subdivision.\" Eric (councilmember) seconded. The motion passed with recorded “Aye” votes and was declared unanimous.

City staff said the city will receive and cash the developer's check before releasing escrow and that the work will be completed by the city to avoid waiting through the spring. The council directed staff to release escrow after confirming payment and to complete the pond and landscaping improvements.","Morgan City granted final acceptance for Pheasant Run subdivision phases 1 and 2, authorizing release of escrow once the developer pays $14,825 for detention-basin work and related fees; council approved unanimously.",{"_33":111,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":112,"_41":113,"_43":114,"_45":115,"_46":116,"_48":117,"_50":118,"_52":119,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":120,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":121,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6640233,"City approves corrected quitclaim deed from school district for future Young Street lift station",504,1317000,1821000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2556212-ea50da714857246ba91fa91e114921c4&start=1317&end=1821","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2556212-ea50da714857246ba91fa91e114921c4/thumbnail_1317000.jpg","/articles/6640233/Morgan/Morgan-County/Utah/City-approves-corrected-quitclaim-deed-from-school-district-for-future-Young-Street-lift-station","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6640233-aaffcbddb8de47557bf635ac46215368/orig.mp4?Expires=1773704453&Signature=Ek~Trf97p2QHt2om06~Z-VbIBqCFdhtvJA5Ebw9BboGQRGe6lpgVIXDxHTPYoZlbUPRmyYERowMT9QnljCH-IKSpTHUUQgUVs-I8meK7qaRR0Bv4F9yYemn2ZchXpQQAkAhynABg~ONxDI0F5JTvWQIrT6-EbmJHtkBWnpWZLNaVGF5NcQndGvFQlQ2~zJ-Dp6z1~JUyoQdSgV3cUqAnO~Lrj3EYIVetyNFtgTDpOU3EicM2RdgvgsX8D9TjzUjcK1MdmJ0yReQ8rczIJLK2kT1wBeplCMyPEKSGb2brkaeoxolOi6QaT7ixLmXfdjT149YTp6lgio-ZPqrWcA~Xuw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Morgan City Council on March 11 voted unanimously to accept corrected quitclaim deeds from the Morgan County School District that align property for a potential sewer lift station on the south side of Young Street, east of Morgan Elementary School.

Ty (city staff) told the council the city had attempted the transfer previously and “we did it wrong,” explaining a small triangular parcel originally conveyed in the transaction had been mis-surveyed. Ty said the corrected exhibit and new quitclaim resolve the overlap between the Wardell property and the school district so the school district now conveys the parcel directly to the city. \"We took it to the school district to have them sign it, and they're like, wait a minute… the school district said, what happened to the rest of our frontage,\" Ty said, describing how the error was discovered during final signature review.

The council discussed that there is no immediate plan to build a lift station; the site was plumbed during prior road work so a lift station could be installed later if development or other triggers require sewer service. Ty said the timing of construction will depend on whichever property owner—Wardell, Jenkins, or the school—triggers the need, and that any required payback agreements would be handled with the benefiting property owners.

Dave (councilmember) moved to approve Resolution 25-04, \"Resolution accepting quit claim deeds to Morgan City from the Board of Education, Morgan County School District, for the installation of a sewer lift station to be installed on property along the South side of Young Street east of Morgan Elementary School.\" Eric (councilmember) seconded. The roll call produced recorded “Aye” votes and the mayor declared the motion unanimous.

The adopted resolution repeals the earlier 2024 resolution and records the corrected exhibit and deed in the city packet. The city clerk will record the corrected quitclaim and the city will hold the property until such time as a developer or other trigger requires lift-station construction.","Morgan City Council voted unanimously to accept corrected quitclaim deeds from the Morgan County School District that align property lines for a future sewer lift station on Young Street, repealing an earlier 2024 resolution and replacing it with Resolution 25-04.","actionData","errors"]
