RDA board set to approve $5000 bond for construction project in Manila

Construction plans are moving forward in Daggett County, with local leaders expressing optimism about immediate occupancy approvals for a key project. During the recent Daggett County Commission meeting, discussions highlighted the urgency surrounding construction timelines, particularly for a project led by a local contractor, Matt. He has begun preliminary work, including site clearing and mobilization, despite concerns about connecting to necessary utilities.

Commission members indicated that a hearing for immediate occupancy will be scheduled as soon as the judge's calendar allows. This approval is crucial for Matt, who has been informed he must vacate his current building by October. The commission is confident that the required documents for immediate occupancy will be secured, with ongoing efforts to justify the need for these approvals.

In addition to construction updates, the meeting touched on affordable workforce housing initiatives. Lori Vernon reported that there may be potential candidates on a waiting list who could telecommute to jobs in the area. This could help address local housing needs while attracting remote workers to Daggett County.

As these discussions unfold, the commission is focused on facilitating construction and housing solutions that will benefit the community, with next steps anticipated in the coming weeks.
