Summary
The board approved a one-time 30-year renewal of Easement No. 3 with the Utah School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration (SITLA) covering sections of Ridge Road and access into Miller Creek for $10,020; staff explained Sitla manages state trust lands for school funding.
County staff introduced consideration of Easement No. 3, a previously secured easement involving sections of Ridge Road and two road sections leading south into Miller Creek that cross SITLA (State Institutional Trust Lands Administration) property. Staff said the one-time 30-year renewal fee is $10,020 and explained that SITLA manages state trust lands to generate revenue for public schools.
A commissioner moved to approve the easement renewal with the Utah School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration; another commissioner seconded the motion. "I'll make a motion that we approve the easement number 3 with the Utah School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration," a commissioner said, and the motion carried by voice vote.
Commissioners asked no substantive follow-up questions beyond a procedural clarification about SITLA's role and the source of trust revenues. The motion passed and staff will complete the administrative steps to finalize the 30-year extension.
The approval covers road easement maintenance and secures county access across SITLA-managed parcels for the stated road segments; staff said such revenues generated by SITLA go to the school trust fund and are generally spent as interest on those collections.
