Commission asked to supply local contacts for water project before CIB presentation
Summary
A commissioner asked the board to provide names of local canal companies, water-district representatives or elected officials to include in a water project briefing to Laura Hansen at the CIB next Thursday; county participants agreed to collect and pass the names to state contacts.
During the Daggett County Commission meeting Speaker 2 asked commissioners and local water representatives to identify one to three people from the county to participate in a water project the group plans to present to the CIB next Thursday. Speaker 2 said, "we'll be talking to Laura Hansen when we go to CIB this next Thursday," and asked for a short list of local contacts and their affiliations.
Participants clarified which local entities the state expects to contact. Speaker 3 described the local equivalents of water conservancy districts as 'ditch companies, canal companies,' and suggested that the county identify the Greendale Canal Company equivalent and the canal companies that operate in the Sheep Creek and Peoples areas. Speaker 4 offered to serve as an initial contact and suggested adding 'mayor Knight and mayor Johns' to the contact list to provide broader local representation.
Why it matters: The county will be presenting a water-related project to the state's CIB and needs accurate local points of contact for coordination and project details, including both culinary and secondary water considerations.
Next steps: Speaker 2 said they will compile names as they come in and provide that information to the state so the project can proceed. The transcript shows the commission completed a report document requested by Lars and will move forward with outreach; no formal action or vote on project design occurred in the meeting.
