Board advances short-term rental ordinance to public hearing; fire-inspection capacity discussed
Summary
Daggett County Planning and Zoning moved a draft Short Term Rental Ordinance to a public hearing on March 17, 2026 at 5:15 PM and discussed requiring annual fire inspections and conditional-use-permit renewals; local inspection capacity may rely on the Vernal Fire Marshal until Flaming Gorge EMS qualifies staff.
The Planning and Zoning Board voted to move a draft Short Term Rental Ordinance to a public hearing on March 17, 2026 at 5:15 PM. The board reviewed Manila’s requirements—annual fire inspections, yearly conditional-use-permit renewal, and house rules—and discussed who is qualified to perform fire-safety inspections.
Mayor Kathi Knight said Manila requires annual fire inspections and permit renewals. Board members noted local capacity for fire inspections is limited and that the Vernal Fire Marshal, Jeremy Raymond, would likely perform inspections until Flaming Gorge EMS has qualified personnel. Tamara Twitchell moved to advance the draft; Allan Wood seconded and the motion carried.
