RDA agrees to return six Bear River Canal Company lease-pool shares for 2025
Summary
The RDA approved returning six shares from Head Gate 16 C to the Bear River Canal Company lease pool for 2025 after brief discussion about timing; one commissioner suggested tabling the item but the board voted to approve.
The Box Elder County RDA voted to return six lease-pool shares at Head Gate 16 C to the Bear River Canal Company for the 2025 season. A staff member introduced the item and told the board, "We have 6 shares to go back to the lease pool." The Chair called for questions and a motion, and commissioners approved the action on a voice vote.
Commissioners discussed whether to delay the decision until they had a separate conversation with the Canal Company. One commissioner said, "I'm wondering if we shouldn't table that," noting the board had been talking about meeting the Canal Company to discuss related issues. Staff replied that the submission deadline is likely in January or February and that the office had raised the matter early to avoid missed deadlines. After brief remarks, a motion to approve was moved and seconded and the board recorded 'aye' votes; the motion passed.
The action was recorded as approval to return six shares from Head Gate 16 C to the Bear River Canal Company's lease pool for 2025. Commissioners then moved to adjourn the RDA portion and resume the county commission meeting.
