Davis County Commission approves consent agenda including tourism sponsorships, health grants and sheriff agreements

The Davis County Commission met Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2026, in the Commission chambers in Farmington and approved a multi-item consent agenda that included tourism and marketing agreements, health-department funding and sheriff’s office cooperative arrangements.

Chair John Crofts opened the meeting and, after hearing no public comment, the board first approved minutes from Jan. 27, 2026. The commission then approved a two-year contract for assessor modeling services with Timmy and Associates with a stated not-to-exceed amount of $207,000.

Kent Anderson of Community and Economic Development presented three items the board approved on the consent agenda: a $30,000 sponsorship agreement with the Utah Airshow Foundation for the 2026 Wasatch Airshow at Hill Air Force Base (presented as payable beginning Feb. 10 and running through July 1, 2026; the presenter made a conflicting reference to the event month during discussion), a three-year marketing and sales agreement with Playon Inc. (PlayEasy platform) totaling $29,985 to be spread over three years, and an agreement with a Jazz basketball investor LLC (doing business as the Utah Jazz) for a Jazz 3-on-3 tournament recorded as a receivable of $6,711.25 and described as expected to bring roughly 3,000 young participants to Farmington.

Brian Hatch of the Health Department described two receivable items the commission approved: a donation agreement with Howie’s to provide bottles of root beer intended for senior aging services (the transcript states "402 liter bottles"; the unit/format is unclear from the record) and an amendment to the county’s contract with the Utah Department of Health and Human Services for the Medicaid Aging program, a receivable of $75,693 covering Jan. 20 through June 30, 2026.

Chief Deputy Arnold Butch of the sheriff’s office presented two items approved by the board: a cooperative law enforcement agreement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture for operations in the Wasatch Cache National Forest, recorded in the packet as a $5,000 receivable noted by staff as a placeholder with the presenter saying an amendment will follow to adjust funding; the transcript lists an end date that appears incorrect in the printed record. Butch also described an equipment loan of electro-optics from a federal naval center (referenced in the transcript as the Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane Division) with a payable amount of $1,800; the transcript lists a contract-end notation that is not clearly rendered in the record.

With no questions, the commission approved consent items 4 through 10 and items 11–16 by voice vote. The board recessed to convene the Board of Equalization, where Scott Park presented the property tax register noting 37 appeals with no value changes and 17 corrections totaling $31,361; the register was approved and the commission reconvened.

In closing remarks, Commissioner Lureen Kamala praised recent department events including the health department’s annual in-service and the county’s community resilience symposium hosted by Davis Tech. Chair Crofts announced a Feb. 17 work session on proposed policy revisions, a March 5 town hall on county history at the historic Davis County Administration Building and plans to meet with the sheriff about the 9-1-1 center. The meeting was adjourned at 10:18 a.m.

The meeting packet included reference dates and numeric details as read into the record; where the transcript renders dates or units ambiguously (for example, an end date listed for the USDA agreement and the phrasing "402 liter bottles"), the board discussion indicated follow-up or amendment will clarify those specifics.
