Daggett County authorizes clerk to approve completed business-license applications with monthly reporting to commission
Summary
The commission voted to let the clerk's office process and approve completed business license applications administratively, with a monthly report to the commission and the chair's signature remaining as a final approval step.
Daggett County commissioners voted to authorize the clerk's office to process and approve business-license applications administratively when an application is complete, and to provide a monthly report of new and renewed licenses to the commission.
The change was proposed to improve efficiency after staff said some applicants had waited for an agenda slot even though their paperwork was complete. Commissioners discussed options for transparency and record-keeping, including a monthly agenda item or a correspondence report and posting license lists on the county website. Staff offered to provide a standing monthly report showing newly issued and renewed licenses.
The motion, as moved and seconded in the meeting, authorizes the clerk's office to "process the application so that it can be approved outside of commission meeting, not on the agenda," while preserving the chair's signature on license forms. Commissioners approved the proposal by voice vote. Staff said they would follow up on posting the list to the county website and on whether the item should appear as correspondence or a standing monthly report.
