Buckskin Hills Enduro course approved with core funding; restroom restored later in meeting
Summary
The council approved core trail construction for the Buckskin Hills Enduro course after removing a vault toilet and awning from the initial award, then later restored $74,500 for the restroom and awning when leftover funds were identified.
Uintah County’s Buckskin Hills Enduro training course—designed as a three-tier practice facility on roughly 2 acres—received council approval for core trail construction after members removed a vault toilet and awning from the initial award to save funds. The initial motion, led by Scott Wheeler, funded the principal trail work at $307,564 while deferring support infrastructure.
Later in the meeting, with leftover funds identified, Council member Eric Nelson moved to restore $74,500 for the bathroom and awning; the motion was seconded by Brody Johnson and passed. The restoration allowed the county to proceed with a more complete initial build, including toilets and shade infrastructure.
Council discussion had focused on jurisdictional NEPA requirements for toilets/awnings depending on whether features sit on county or federal land; the final award preserved the trail work while resolving infrastructure funding after budget adjustments.
