Council approves consent items; water‑conservation plan updated but no fee increases
Summary
Council approved the consent agenda including a resolution to expand properties in the Pony Express Inland Port and a water‑conservation plan update. Council confirmed the plan includes tiered usage rates but staff and council said no fees are being increased at this time.
Payson City Council approved the consent agenda, which included approval of prior meeting minutes, monthly financials, a resolution to allow additional properties into the Pony Express Inland Port, and an update to the city's water‑conservation plan.
Councilors questioned whether the water‑conservation update changed the fee schedule. Staff and council members confirmed the city uses tiered, usage‑based rates but that no fees are being increased at this time. One councilor urged proactively publishing conservation incentives and demonstration landscaping to educate residents, and staff said the city has budgeted a demonstration garden and works with Central Utah entities on rebate eligibility.
