Council updates: transfer-station talks, CDBG grant for Romer Park Phase 4 and Terrace Days grants
Summary
Councilmembers reported ongoing talks with Republic Services and county officials about a new Ogden transfer station, confirmed CDBG funding for Romer Park Phase 4, and announced two $2,000 grants to support Terrace Days events.
Councilmembers used the May 5 meeting to update each other on intergovernmental and grant developments. The mayor reported that Ogden City had signed an agreement related to a new transfer station and that Republic Services — the city's long-time hauler — purchased interests connected to that facility, prompting county and hauler meetings to confirm where Washington Terrace garbage will be taken.
“We went over a few things, and so we're working out a few things and seeing how this is all gonna play out,” the mayor said, noting the city is visiting sites and meeting with other companies to ensure continued service.
Council also celebrated a ribbon cutting for Romer Park Phase 3 and reported that county funding has been approved for Phase 4; the city credited successful grant-matching and community sponsorships for enabling projects. Council said staff secured two small grants (about $2,000 each) to help with Terrace Days activities.
Staff told the council they would post information about grants and park projects online and that the city will continue to pursue funding and site work for park phases and other capital projects.
No formal action on these items was recorded; they were reported as informational updates and council thanked staff and partners.
