- Final Approval of North Run Subdivision, Consisting of 8 Lots at 2290 S. 7500 W. Including a
Financial Guarantee in the Amount of $12,520 for Improvements
Kevin Hamilton, County Planning Department, showed area maps. He stated that the Reese Township Planning Commission had unanimously recommended approval of the subdivision, subject to the petitioner granting a 60 foot easement to the county for a future road. Mr. Hamilton said that this was a county road by right of use that accessed the bird refuge. The subdividers had entered into an agreement with the county that if they purchased the materials, the county would construct the road. Addressing the elevation issue, Mr. Hamilton said that these lots, for the most part, fell below the moratorium elevation and in those situations the subdividers were required to bring up a 20,000 sq. feet area of the lot to the 4,215 ft. elevation the lowest habitable floor needs to be at this elevation. He said that the front portions of the lots had been brought to that elevation, which had to be certified on the plat.
Commissioner Cain moved to grant final approval of North Run Subdivision, consisting of 8 Lots at 2290 S. 7500 W., and to accept a financial guarantee in the amount of $12,520 for improvements; Chair Bischoff seconded, both voting aye.
- A Dedication Plat for a Strip of County Owned Property Along 6600 South Street in the
Incorporated Town of Uintah
Martin Moore, County Surveyor, showed a plat map. He stated that in about 1961 a property owner (who
was now in the incorporated Town of Uintah) had deeded to Weber County a strip of land (about 33 ft.
wide X 759 long). It blocks all those residents along this strip from having legal access into 6600 South.
Mr. Moore said that even though the deed probably intended for it to be a roadway, it did not stipulate
that. He indicated that about 2-3 years ago, the county had tried to take care of this situation, however,
the town's administration at that time, did not understand it and did not accept it. Mr. Moore met with
Mayor Kendall who was fully in favor of this action. He explained that because this strip of roadway
(which adjoined the actual road) was within the right-of-way of the railroad it needed to be a dedicated
right-of-way.
Commissioner Cain moved to approve a dedication plat for a strip of county owned property along 6600 South Street in the incorporated Town of Uintah; Chair Bischoff seconded, both voting aye.

Ms. Richesson stated that the County Attorney's Office had reviewed this contract. The contract amount is $160/month.
Commissioner Cain moved to approve Contract C2003-5, Service Agreement by and between the Weber County Correctional Facility and Stericycle, Inc.; Chair Bischoff seconded, both voting aye.
- Contract for Consulting Services Between Weber County and Weber Basin Water Quality
Management Council - Contract C2003-6
