Loading...
Summary
Council adopted the 2024 International Wildland Urban Interface Code, approved up to $45,000 for a water crossing at 200 North Main Street and authorized up to $14,000 for fireworks after vendor issues; the council also approved CivicLink and a representative appointment for the fire district.
The Mona City Council handled several consent and action items, including code updates, infrastructure spending and community event approvals.
Ordinance 2026‑8: Council adopted the 2024 edition of the International Wildland Urban Interface Code to replace the earlier edition. A motion and second carried the ordinance adoption.
Infrastructure spending: Council approved spending of up to $45,000 for a waterfront water crossing at 200 North Main Street.
Events and procurement: Staff explained problems with last year’s fireworks vendor and recommended pursuing a different vendor; council authorized up to $14,000 for fireworks procurement and asked staff to seek competitive bids and pursue any possible refund from the original vendor (staff said they are still attempting to recover about $6,000). Staff noted that federal/state requirements prevent storing explosives leftover from last year.
Civic programs and appointments: Council approved CivicLink (a community communication/service) by motion, and Chair announced former council member Jay Christiansen will represent the city for the fire district (MOTA).
Each item passed by motion and vote; council instructions emphasized following procurement policy (three bids where possible) and pursuing refunds or credits related to the prior fireworks contract.
