The Davis County Commission voted on a series of routine business and action items on Dec. 23, approving incentive, grant and contract items across multiple departments.
Community and Economic Development planner Jeff Oiler presented an incentive agreement with USA BMX to host the 2026 USA BMX professional national event at Syracuse BMX Park. Oiler said the county would pay $10,000 from tourism funds under a contract running from Dec. 23, 2025, to Aug. 10, 2026. The commission approved the agreement by voice vote.
Oiler also presented a short-term lease of parking stalls adjacent to Rock Hotel Dental and Rock Hotel Rental; the transcript's numeric formatting for the stall count and fee was unclear, and the commission approved the lease.
Health Department director Brian Hatch presented two receivables from the Utah Department of Health and Human Services: a tobacco-prevention grant for $46,087 (July 1, 2025–April 28, 2026) and a Preschool Development Grant (PDG) amendment for $200,000 (Dec. 31, 2025–Dec. 30, 2026); Hatch said both are federal pass-through funds and commissioners approved both items.
Other approvals included a professional-services agreement with Atlas Technologies for an e-prosecutor initial system assessment ($7,200), a renewal contract with EBSCO Publishing for library databases ($15,472.35), and a lease for the temporary library location (covered in a separate article). Chief Deputy Butcher presented a recurring emergency-management grant with the Department of Public Safety Division of Emergency Management for $108,000 (grant period originally listed as 2023–2029); commissioners approved the item. The consent agenda (items 12–18) was approved together. Scott Park, controller, presented the property tax register (17 appeals, 17 abatements, six auditor corrections, and five assessor corrections) and the board of equalization approved the register.
The commission also approved an annual meeting schedule for 2026 and a resolution setting the chair and vice-chair rotation for 2026; Kamalu explained the routine rotation process.
What’s next: These items were approved by the commission as presented; staff will execute contracts and continue routine administration. No contested votes or amendments were recorded in the transcript.
