Emery County approves PILT allocations as recreation districts warn mineral‑lease revenue fell sharply
Summary
With mineral‑lease receipts falling, the Emery County Commission approved a PILT disbursement resolution allocating funds to EMS, water and recreation districts and the fire district. Recreation leaders warned some districts face under‑one‑year operating reserves and asked the county to seek grants and short‑term relief.
Emery County commissioners voted to amend a PILT disbursement resolution and allocate state PILT funds to several special service districts after hearing that mineral lease revenues — a primary funding source for many districts — have declined sharply.
The resolution approved $40,000 to EMS, $35,000 to North Emery Water, $52,922 to Castle Valley Special Service District and $90,000 each to the county rec district and the fire district. The motion passed with aye votes from commissioners on the record.
