Loading...
Summary
At the April meeting the Levan Town Council adopted the 2024 Wildland-Urban Interface code, voted to move municipal code hosting to CivicLink to save annual costs, and agreed to extend a 10-acre farm lease for one year while re-evaluating terms.
The Levan Town Council took several administrative actions at its April meeting, approving an ordinance to adopt the 2024 International Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) Code and voting to switch the town's municipal code hosting to CivicLink, a lower-cost vendor.
Council member (speaker 4) moved to adopt ordinance number 04092026-001 adopting the International Wildland-Urban Interface Code; the motion received a voice vote and passed. The council then considered the vendor switch after a staff presentation by Shay (speaker 7). Shay said CivicLink costs roughly $500 per year plus a one-time implementation fee and offered to help migrate the town's code. After a motion and second the council approved the vendor change by voice vote.
On land-management business, staff reported a 10-acre farm lease with a 10-year term had expired on Dec. 31. After discussion about whether to solicit a new long-term bid or extend for a short period, a motion was made to continue the current lease for one year while the council prepares formal bid documents. The motion passed after a second; one member stated an abstention because of a potential conflict of interest.
Under other administrative business the council directed staff to follow up on CIB (capital improvement) project listing procedures for the Utah project portal (May 1 deadline) and asked staff to coordinate with engineers and the county on potential water-sale negotiations and related work sessions.
No ordinances or contracts tying significant new spending beyond previously budgeted amounts were finalized at the meeting; the council approved the standard consent agenda items (minutes and claims) and adjourned the session.
