Daggett County Municipal Building Authority held a public hearing on December 17, 2024, to discuss the proposed amendments to the 2024 budget and the adoption of the 2025 budget. The meeting began with an invitation for public comments regarding two resolutions: Resolution 22-03 MBA, which pertains to the amendment of the 2024 budget, and Resolution 24-03 MBA, which aims to establish the 2025 budget.
Despite the opportunity for public input, no comments were received from attendees. The discussion then shifted to the specifics of the budgets, particularly regarding the inclusion of clinic-related expenditures. Questions arose about whether any funds had been spent from the Capital Improvement Fund (CIV) for the clinic in 2024, with officials noting that no expenditures had been recorded to date.
The conversation also touched on potential billing from the architectural firm Jones and DeMille, which may impact the budget due to associated loans. However, it was decided that further discussions on these financial matters would be deferred to a subsequent regular MBA meeting to ensure a more thorough examination.
With no public comments or further discussion, the public hearing was concluded, and the meeting transitioned back to the regular MBA agenda, which included additional housekeeping items. This session marks a critical step in Daggett County's financial planning, as the proposed budgets will shape the community's services and infrastructure for the upcoming years.
