Summary
The Daggett County Commission unanimously approved Resolution #26‑05 on March 31, 2026, formally declaring a drought emergency and noting ongoing coordination with the Bureau of Reclamation on water flows and output.
The Daggett County Commission voted unanimously March 31 to adopt Resolution #26‑05, declaring the existence of a drought emergency in the county. "Commissioner Lytle motioned to approve Resolution #26‑05," the minutes record; Commissioner Matt Tippets seconded the motion and the vote carried 3‑0.
Commissioner Lytle told colleagues he had been in contact with the Bureau of Reclamation about river flow and water output concerns, and the declaration formalizes the county's recognition of drought conditions and improves its ability to coordinate responses. The resolution was moved and approved during the policy and legislation portion of the agenda. No action beyond adoption—such as specific restrictions or emergency expenditures—was recorded in the minutes.
