Commission hears runway maintenance concerns; Manila awarded $275,000 for well improvements
Summary
Commissioners reported runway weed and tree issues at local airports and said Manila received a $275,000 grant for well improvements, which county officials described as beneficial to the community.
Daggett County commissioners discussed airport maintenance and a separate grant award for the town of Manila during their June 10 meeting.
Unidentified Speaker 3 said crews "cleaned up some weeds that were in the runway," but added that large weeds persisted after spraying and that trees along the runway edges would need removal; Brett Reynolds had raised the concern. Unidentified Speaker 4 noted they had not yet inspected Dutchtown Airport and did not want to duplicate work if others were already planning to address the trees.
Unidentified Speaker 1 reported that Manila requested $275,000 in grant funding for water and well improvements and that the town had been awarded that amount. "That's what they were awarded for the water improvements, for the well improvements," the speaker said, adding the award would be beneficial for the county.
No formal airport work orders or project timelines were recorded in the transcript; commissioners did not vote on airport funding during the portion of the meeting provided.
