Orderville council approves application for $200,000 outdoor recreation grant; would require $60,000 local match
Summary
Council approved submitting a $200,000 outdoor recreation grant application for park improvements. If awarded, the town would be asked to provide a $60,000 local match; staff emphasized the application does not commit the town to spending until an award is made.
Council reviewed and approved submitting an application to the Utah Outdoor Recreation grant program seeking up to $200,000 for park infrastructure including fields and a pavilion. Sean (council member) and other council members outlined the grant’s purpose and noted the town previously budgeted and received county support for related concession‑stand work.
Council discussed that if the state grant is awarded the town would be expected to match the grant with $60,000. The mayor and staff clarified that approving the application authorizes staff to file for the grant only and does not obligate the town to spend money unless the grant is awarded and council subsequently approves any budget appropriation or commitment.
The council voted to approve submitting the grant application and requested staff coordinate with county partners and confirm documentation and cost estimates before an award decision.
