The Wallsburg Town Council convened on January 2, 2025, to discuss various community matters, including upcoming projects and events. The meeting began with updates on the removal of holiday decorations, as Rocky Mountain Power is scheduled to take down the lights on Main Street next week, and the Christmas tree will be dismantled over the weekend.
A significant highlight was the positive feedback received from the recent fireworks show at the park, which many residents enjoyed. Council members discussed the possibility of contributing to the event's costs for next year, pending further information on pricing from Joe Carlson.
The council addressed the need for conflict of interest forms to be submitted by January 11, in compliance with Utah State code. This requirement was emphasized to ensure all necessary documentation is completed promptly.
Looking ahead, the agenda for the upcoming January work meeting includes discussions with Rocky Mountain Power regarding lighting, updates from Utah Broadband, and inquiries about water projects. The council also plans to revisit the Cemetery Road vacation topic at this meeting.
Additionally, the council is preparing for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) application, with a deadline set for January 15. Members discussed the importance of having the necessary engineering support and documentation ready for submission. They noted the need to ensure that the Low-Moderate Income (LMI) survey data is accessible for the chosen engineering firm.
The meeting concluded with a brief overview of the agenda for the February regular meeting, which will include updates on water and fiber projects, as well as ongoing discussions related to the CDBG funding.
The council adjourned at 8:04 PM, marking a productive session focused on community engagement and future planning.
