Clinic and water treatment projects moving ahead, MBA hears; reimbursement timing raised
Summary
Board members reported clinic construction progressing (glass/window/frame installation and thin-brick veneer) and discussed the water treatment plant; members raised concerns about the timing of reimbursements and whether engineers/auditors have submitted required paperwork.
Members received updates on two capital projects during the Dec. 23 Daggett County Municipal Building Authority meeting.
Unidentified Speaker 1 reported that trades are working on the new clinic building, with glass and window-frame installation scheduled and thin-brick veneer being applied: "Thin brick is is the the the type of" (transcript wording). The speaker said the building "will be secured" and that work is "moving forward pretty well."
Board members also asked for updates on the water treatment plant. Staff and participants explained that projects are at different stages of reimbursement application and processing. Unidentified Speaker 2 expressed concern about reliance on engineering teams to prepare reimbursement paperwork, saying, "I worry not just about the water treatment plant, but all the projects that we're relying on the engineers to do a lot of the paperwork to be ready for the reimbursements." Unidentified Speaker 1 responded that reimbursements are expected through "the grants or the grant loan mix" and confirmed that some reimbursements had not yet been submitted.
Members agreed to follow up outside the meeting to confirm the status of reimbursement submissions and to identify which invoices tied to which capital projects. No formal decisions on project scope or funding reallocations were taken during the discussion.
