Summary
Commissioners approved an $18,250 contract for festival transportation, a $80,000 CDBG amendment for Habitat for Humanity (bringing the contract to $210,000), a UHMIS policy for homeless services, and interlocal amendments for the 1100 West (Woods Cross) and 2500 West (Syracuse) reconstruction projects.
The Davis County Commission approved a set of community and economic development items on March 3, including contracts, policy updates and interlocal amendments for local road reconstruction projects.
Kent Anderson, Community and Economic Development, described the items. He said the county will pay Haroon Transportation Inc. $18,250 to provide vans and other vehicles for field trips during the 2026 Great Salt Lake Bird Festival (May 14–17, 2026). Anderson also presented a county Homeless Management Information System (UHMIS) policy to govern client data intake for code-blue events and motel/hotel voucher programs; the county collects intake information and passes it to the state system.
Anderson told commissioners the Community Development Block Grant contract amendment (Contract 2025-0650) increases Habitat for Humanity's award by $80,000 to a total of $210,000 for July 1, 2025–June 30, 2026 to support additional critical home repairs. He also presented two interlocal amendments for road projects: an amendment with Woods Cross City for the 1100 West Reconstruction Project (identified in the agenda as payable $1,400,000; transcript contained garbled date text for the contract extension) and an amendment with Syracuse City for the 2500 West project (payable $22,817,918; agenda dates listed in transcript). Anderson said no new county dollars are being added to those amendments; both are extensions/administrative adjustments to allow project completion.
A single motion to approve items 6 through 10 passed by voice vote.
