Summary

Town staff reported on recent RDA/RDC meetings, near-term rare grant release, Wolf Creek project updates, county Mormon-cricket mitigation program (cost-share for aerial spray), and Main Street program mini-grants and technical assistance for local projects.

Town staff provided a multi-topic update covering recent RDA/RDC and river-district meetings, grant opportunities, and local program updates.

The staff report noted that a rare grant is close to being released and that the river-district presented on grant opportunities centered on water projects. On Mormon crickets, staff said county-level plans mean a landowner who wants aerial spray must pay 50% of the cost while the county provides one bag of bait or a container of spray at half cost for a single application; the town will continue existing mitigation practices but will not provide bait directly.

The report also covered the Main Street program moving to a new level with additional mini-grants and technical assistance available for local projects, and a planned redo of a town unit that includes flooring, cabinetry and converting a tub to a shower to improve accessibility.
