Staff said hauling from Pender’s pit is cheaper than alternatives if the district provides haul trucks.

Staff reported equipment repairs including a new tire and repair of a hydraulic leak on the dump truck after a long period of inactivity, and some service work on a leased backhoe that might be covered under warranty. A staff member described pump rates from a spring as fluctuating between about 25 and 65 gallons per minute depending on conditions; with adequate water the spring can reach 30–40 gpm, staff said.

On the district’s recently installed water storage tank, staff said the concrete did not cure properly when poured late in the season and the tank initially failed a leak-down test. After a summer of curing the tank passed the leak-down test and staff said they have obtained operating permits. The staff member summarized those remarks to the commission as: the tank is online and operating permits have been secured.

Commissioners and staff also discussed fuel use during winter plowing, and noted the district burned more diesel than in an average year. Staff reported routine small fixes to the valve/air systems and that no large outages occurred. Separately, commissioners discussed local fire-mitigation work: timber thinning and clearing at private and state lands, cooperation with landowners (named in discussion as George) and continuing concern about potential ignition sources from adjacent basins.

The resort in the district was noted to be closing for the season next week; staff commented that seasonal closures and weather patterns affect both road and water demands. No new formal directions or policy changes were made; the discussion primarily updated commissioners about ongoing operations and maintenance tasks.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Beaver County Utah Public Meetings Live Stream","oneSentenceSummary","Staff reported muddy mountain roads and hauling crushed rock, equipment repairs to a dump truck and backhoe, variable spring flows and that a recently installed water tank passed leak testing and obtained operating permits; commissioners discussed fire mitigation and forest-service activity.","taxTitle","Beaver County Commission Meeting, Beaver County Boards and Commissions, Beaver County, Utah","taxId",67307,"location","Utah","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6099539,"Commissioners approve Yardley water-use agreement; minutes and bills cleared",173,813061,986111,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2817344-4d03265e55cbbdda4f71ff4e4092e9db&start=813&end=986","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2817344-4d03265e55cbbdda4f71ff4e4092e9db/thumbnail_813061.jpg","/articles/6099539/Utah/Commissioners-approve-Yardley-water-use-agreement-minutes-and-bills-cleared","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6099539-4ea803f1b060a00273ecdd1b25e86332/orig.mp4?Expires=1770952697&Signature=fpz0wOssE1R4Ti1xzyC6XUjYSEB4Phq5rN7hLZgc8jmYKxzwg3NTOC7cOcFxbIDd78l4gVe9pwr6EKeRm2RwaCxxnkDmNJw4qGakogZ8vLh5YORByJB6ZazVE2IPnofMEE3uIDW6pvboPjpATTRV69Q8Q4G0De4KZfwiUA3nFBA8uSZbvsY6xIvWygeT~lcFEzlls-PYkRgc5LoR1vWUUijuYBeMxbXmFiX3hdZNaVWIGV98OHUV3dtAZ-TXagdT7ZPaK9Y5XgNlFwX4QNuiOwqSBMqJGAPmabCUoYV0IROmtFd-7FaH7pCP0Xi2Ugmi75JmxZWCmuIvkxRbNBjcOg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Beaver County Commission approved an extension of a water-use agreement with Yardley Family Farms and voted to approve the meeting minutes and pay the presented bills during a short district meeting.

The agreement covers a 40-acre-foot water lease, according to the discussion, and the county receives $5,500 annually under the lease; the commission approved a $2,500 split payment to KMJA as part of that distribution. Commissioner Leo made the motion to approve the Yardley Family Farms water-use agreement; the motion was seconded and passed by voice vote.

County staff also presented the minutes for approval. A motion to accept the minutes was moved and seconded and approved by voice vote. Commissioners then reviewed the bills. Staff noted a transfer of special-assessment collections into the PTIF account and several travel-related credit-card charges tied to attendance at a water conference. A motion to pay the bills was moved and seconded and carried by voice vote.

The commission flagged the special-assessment receipts as larger one-time deposits (examples cited verbally included amounts in the thousands) that were transferred to the PTIF account; exact payer names and the full list of amounts were discussed in the meeting record. Commissioners also approved the split of the water-lease payment as described by staff.

Votes at a glance:
- Motion to approve the Yardley Family Farms water-use agreement (40 acre-feet lease): moved by Commissioner Leo; seconded; passed by voice vote.
- Motion to approve the meeting minutes: moved and seconded; passed by voice vote.
- Motion to approve payment of presented bills (including transfer of special-assessment receipts to PTIF and a $2,500 payment to KMJA from lease proceeds): moved and seconded; passed by voice vote.

The meeting concluded shortly after the votes; no additional follow-up actions were specified on the record.","At a brief Beaver County district meeting commissioners approved a water-use agreement extension with Yardley Family Farms, accepted minutes and authorized payment of bills, including a split of annual lease revenue.","actionData","errors"]
