Commission hears tourism and events preview; local business thanks county for $10,000 grant
Summary
Economic development staff outlined a busy weekend of events including a PRCA rodeo, parade and concerts (no fireworks due to restrictions). During public comment an unnamed speaker read a thank‑you letter from a local business for a $10,000 CEOAB grant to Birch Creek RV Rentals (the letter name is internally inconsistent in the transcript).
Daggett County's economic development and tourism representative updated the commission on a busy upcoming weekend of community events and concerts and commissioners heard a public comment thanking the board for a local small‑business grant.
Jordan Hewitt summarized plans for a PRCA rodeo on Friday and Saturday, a parade and vendor fair, a boat parade (fireworks canceled due to restrictions), and a seniors pancake breakfast on Monday. Organizers discussed logistics for concerts and vendor coordination; staff said Friday night's concert will be set up in the street after the rodeo, and speakers mentioned potential performers to consider for future events.
During the public comment period an unnamed speaker read a letter from a local business owner thanking the commission for a $10,000 CEOAB grant awarded to Birch Creek RV Rentals. The transcript introduces the letter as sent by "Carol Slaw" and the letter text is signed "Carol Slob," an inconsistency noted on the record. The letter said the $10,000 grant will help the business purchase additional rental units and improve electrical and garage storage for operations.
Organizers were asked to continue coordinating logistics with county staff; no formal actions on events or grants were taken at the meeting.
