Summary
At a February 2026 recap, Parks & Recreation staff described ordinance fee updates that add new group sites at North Fork Park and Memorial Park, remove some discontinued offerings, and noted a new walk-in marriage service available at the county counter.
Brad Cragan, who identified himself in the meeting as handling Parks & Recreation matters, told the Weber County recap that he presented fee changes to the county ordinance to keep offerings and charges current. "So I presented a fee change to the ordinance. In parks and recreation, we're pretty diverse in our our facilities and our offerings," Cragan said.
Cragan described the update as akin to an "annual audit" to ensure fees remain relevant and current. As part of the ordinance changes, he said the county added a new group site at North Fork Park, located by the river, and added a new group site at Memorial Park. He also said the county removed some offerings it no longer provides.
Separately in the recap, the host noted that county staff can now perform marriage ceremonies at the counter, enabling walk-in marriages without needing a justice of the peace: "If you wanted to get married, you just have to go to the counter and they can perform it right then and there." No ordinance text or effective dates for these fee changes and service updates were provided during the recap.
The meeting did not record a formal vote or ordinance adoption during the recap; Cragan described the proposal and the purpose of keeping fee schedules current. County staff invited the public to view the meeting live and asked viewers to follow up with staff for details.
