Rockville begins outreach on historic‑district nomination; council to consider $2,000 consultant supplement in May
Summary
Council distributed letters to property owners about a proposed historic district, scheduled a public information meeting for the fourth, and was told consultant Kirk Huffaker has requested an additional $2,000 to complete the nomination work; council will consider the request at its May meeting.
The council reported that letters have been mailed to property owners in the proposed historic‑district boundary to inform them of the nominating process. The Chair said the April information meeting is not a public hearing and that the council will place the nomination on the May meeting agenda for a formal vote. The Chair explained that if 51 percent of property owners in the boundary object, the nomination will not proceed.
The Chair identified Corey Jensen from the Utah State Historic Preservation Office as the person scheduled to present at the information meeting. The council also disclosed that consultant Kirk Huffaker, who prepared the nomination materials and was paid under an original $5,000 agreement, has requested an additional $2,000 because the project has taken longer than expected; the council said it will consider that request at its May meeting.
Other community updates during the meeting included a report on cemetery maintenance (monthly checks proposed at roughly $80 per visit) and ongoing conversation about charging outside groups $20 per day for community‑center power usage.
