Tanner Larson, speaking on behalf of Shane Godbaw of Goldman Asset Management, said, “West Village Lot 6 C And 7 C have been declared unbuildable by the county.” He asked the commission to assess those lots in the same manner used for other lots the county has marked unbuildable. Tanner said the lots lack access because they are adjacent to a tunnel and that they “will never be developed.”

The commission discussed the practical effect. A staff speaker said the change would eliminate water fees but still apply a road maintenance fee. The board moved to exclude lots 6C and 7C from being charged as buildable lots and to charge them “according to how unbilledable” (unbuildable) lots are charged; a motion was made, seconded and approved by voice vote.

Why it matters: Changing assessment status reduces recurring utility charges for those lots and aligns their fees with other county treatment of unbuildable parcels. Staff directed that billing be adjusted and that the change be reflected in the next billing cycle correspondence.

Next steps: Staff said they will send correspondence with the next set of bills to put lot owners on notice and implement the assessment change.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Beaver County Utah Public Meetings Live Stream","oneSentenceSummary","The Beaver County Commission voted to treat West Village lots 6C and 7C as unbuildable for assessment purposes, eliminating certain water fees while continuing road maintenance charges.","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},6183885,"Commission approves bills; board reviews project transfers, retainage and bond balances",1162,149790,1312710,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5093560-ddd50692d5790ef4b7ff6b592289e84f&start=149&end=1312","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5093560-ddd50692d5790ef4b7ff6b592289e84f/thumbnail_149790.jpg","/articles/6183885/Utah/Commission-approves-bills-board-reviews-project-transfers-retainage-and-bond-balances","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6183885-dd4ff889860427e26a2f852cbacdb570/orig.mp4?Expires=1771075162&Signature=IE2290J7kStm1Cs2dfASF8R~JhaVn8wTN~zYprBQWFzEs-mq1hexLvxx88dGTSWkEcjKPEDqfZT5OzDoUVh7oEmm2jrbBri-oWOa9T~NoLRWiNLQMQ2tGd8SBYQorkRXTClBRqHIhh04u4CIboW2~03U-V4Cf-2dD3-ngPGwKHodK00Wq1hgeU6lhhzVM4HM9rB8-250o8xXp28m~o6RgbnTkJ12OUktjHneRqjF0N1WH3RoZkXZYkQ0VRZ1pr6IBHB7fV1H-~xCuvhypJX9bB6nB~oW470cu9qApS2TJiypuzbsy~OSauIR4LjJ1~D4E~ZiuXRpsD~6E3E0E3mMYw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Beaver County Commission approved bills paid since the last meeting and reviewed the current fiscal status of ongoing projects.

Commission members reviewed a list of payments and transfers. A staff speaker noted “$45,000 and $21,000” as transfers to Utah Public Traders investment fund accounts and said most bills were for payroll and operating maintenance. The board voted by voice to approve the financials.

Why it matters: Commissioners reviewed bond funds set aside for construction and retainage held on active contracts. A staff member reported that the main construction project has $1,409,000 remaining in the bond account and $53,000 in that contractor’s retainage. A second, smaller project had $247,000 remaining and $79,000 in retainage, and Rollins had not drawn on its retainage during the month.

Board members also discussed several invoices. An invoice received the morning of the meeting for gasoline/diesel was $4,256. Participants noted a past invoice for damage after hitting a power line was agreed to be the county’s responsibility but had not yet been paid; the transcript did not specify the dollar amount for that item. Brandon and other staff members said they would follow up on an Aspen Equity invoice for loader use and a billed but unpaid item that had been routed to Shane in error.

Budget comparison reports presented at the meeting showed the county has billed about $379,000 for the first six months and had expended roughly $131,000 in that same period, representing about 68% of the budgeted expenditures for the period. Grant items were discussed as ongoing but not urgent; staff said some grants may not be reviewed again for several months.

The commission approved the bills by voice vote; staff will follow up on outstanding invoices and report back at the next meeting.","The Beaver County Commission approved the bills paid since the last meeting and reviewed several notable transactions, including two transfers to investment accounts, bond fund balances and retainage on construction projects.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6183890,"Commissioners say final payment will be withheld after water line placed outside planned Lower Loop alignment",600,289800,890700,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5093560-ddd50692d5790ef4b7ff6b592289e84f&start=289&end=890","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5093560-ddd50692d5790ef4b7ff6b592289e84f/thumbnail_289800.jpg","/articles/6183890/Utah/Commissioners-say-final-payment-will-be-withheld-after-water-line-placed-outside-planned-Lower-Loop-alignment","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6183890-43a2381dd724ac33a9b5e005b378b3a2/orig.mp4?Expires=1771075162&Signature=EKA9upuhLTmp-MDgeO0-nRQyMiuzYn9bv9MOLMNm4mUNscvmD-HW28BWl~RN3R3cAZMaY0O98EcpBWbAYWKSMWljVKZ5fgWry~YZE65k~ha8b3qhqfswhdKY7-FFXecDOP7qghq3BNJ0sFaU3akggKIoUNuqRUbhY3YH1ytonYK0nFwOBRsM8UvhNiqygvdUunYf7IQaZFzI6NE3FziNvymo9t005DwGeIZTlIS~AuuspyvQnn50RZsKcKicIf47fJe5csE6tS9vblClcYuIO5E1vJOs1Nbi5hErpkpfct~qSeErH1X5sYtiEFe6vGz40I89owArb-iTTCMIdtTA~w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At the Beaver County Commission meeting, commissioners and staff discussed a mislocated water line on the Lower Loop road realignment and said they will withhold final payment to the contractor until the pipe is moved into the planned alignment.

The concern arose when a meeting participant identified as Speaker 4 said, “I just wanna make sure that that is not released and paid to Tusher until that lower line” and described earlier instructions that the water line should have been routed on the inside of the loop road rather than down the outside edge. The participant said they had provided a third-amended plat to staff before bids and expected the water line to be placed “on the inside of the loop road.”

Why it matters: If a water line remains outside the final road alignment, the county said it could have to dig and rework the line after the road is surfaced, potentially requiring change orders and added cost. Staff and contractors discussed a plan to stake the correct alignment before final acceptance.

Staff member Brandon and others said Sunrise (the engineering/contracting team) and the contractor (referred to in the meeting as Tuscher or Tusher) share responsibility for the misplacement. Speaker 4 said they had sent CAD alignment files to High Point Engineering and asked that “a guy named TJ” stake the line so crews know “exactly, physically, where it's at.” TJ (identified in the meeting as from High Point) was expected to stake the alignment at Speaker 4’s request.

Board discussion focused on preventing final payment until the alignment is corrected. A county speaker noted that the contractor “won’t be getting their final payment” while subcontractors remain to be finished and while the alignment problem is unresolved. The participants also discussed administrative steps: a change order through Sunrise is likely required and staff will confer with Devin and Tyler (staff/engineering contacts named in the meeting) and schedule a contractor walk-through and a contractor coordination meeting.

Details and constraints: meeting participants said some existing pipe could be reused, that valves and fittings may simply need relocation, and that additional excavation will be required. One participant said the staking and rework are being arranged “at my cost” by the person who raised the issue, but also stated Sunrise should have gotten it right initially and that Sunrise should address the cost if the error is theirs.

Next steps: speakers arranged for a contractor meeting on Thursday, a walk-through with engineers next week and requested that staff (including Devin) attend. Staff direction recorded in the meeting indicated final payment would not be released until the alignment issue is resolved and the work is verified by engineering staff.","At a Beaver County Commission meeting, commissioners and staff discussed a mislocated water line on the Lower Loop road realignment and agreed staff should not release final contractor payment until the alignment is corrected and staked.","actionData","errors"]
