   3. Resolution Approving an Interlocal Agreement with South Ogden City for Animal Services - Resolution 32-2002, Contract C2002-99
      Weber County Sheriff Brad Slater stated that this contract was for temporary animal sheltering services only until a long-term solution to animal services could be reached between the various cities in the county and the county itself. Commissioner Cain asked for clarification on the pricing structure. Sheriff Slater explained that the various cities had received notice from Ogden City of a substantial increase in shelter costs. Initially, three cities approached Weber County asking if the county would provide animal services and, if so, at what price. These cities were provided a dollar figure for a temporary solution only (which included supplies, some labor & capital expenditures) for the county to handle the additional anticipated work load. Those cities then talked with three other cities, two of which decided to join with a proposal that they would fund the estimated $65,703.78 cost incurred by the county for one year. The cities decided to divide the amount equally between each participating city, regardless of the amount of animals. One of cities decided not to participate because they did not wish to pay 1/6 of that amount, thus leaving the almost $66,000 to be divided by five. The cities requesting services from Weber County South Ogden, Riverdale, Roy, Washington Terrace, North Ogden are agreeable to paying this cost. Chair Burton said that before Weber County expands its facilities, that a long-term commitment is needed and Sheriff Slater stated that those five cities had consistently indicated they were willing to make the long-term commitment and understood that the cost may increase next year.
      
      
      Commissioner Cain moved to adopt Resolution 32-2002 approving Interlocal Agreement C2002-99 between Weber County and South Ogden City for animal services; Commissioner Bischoff seconded.

   5. Request for Approval of the 2002 Weber County Tax Rates

   6. Request for Final Approval of Weber Industrial Park Plat B, Subdivision of Lot 41
      Jim Gentry, County Planning Department, showed area maps and indicated the location of this property. The petitioner is dividing Lot 41 into two parcels. The lot shown as Lot 50 has an existing Weber/Box Elder Water Conservancy reservoir for secondary water located on the rear portion of the property. The parcel with the reservoir will be 4.15 acres and the front parcel will be 3.26 acres. The Weber County Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval. Mr. Gentry addressed the commissioners' questions. He stated that the right-of-way will remain because it is the access to the reservoir and that the reservoir takes up the majority of the rear portion of the parcel.
