Council reports: water-impact fee update, Hodges Canyon well work and library expansion progress

Several council members delivered routine reports during the Aug. 13 meeting. Council Member Kenneth Hansen said the water-impact fee has not been reviewed in nine years and the town engineer will update it; he also reported that construction of the Hodges Canyon well house has begun and the well should be pumping to the town by spring after additional improvements.

Council Member Susann House said the new library expansion has the T-bar ceiling installed and that HVAC and electrical work are starting; the Library Director and a USU representative are working on breezeway design and the library board will pursue engineered plans for fundraising. Council Member Dan Larsen reported on youth softball organization attempts and a planned September tournament.
