2) DISCUSSION of FIRST RESPONDER RESOLUTION:
Council member Glodowski made a motion to continue for further discussion and final draft of the resolution, seconded by Council member Duggin. FOR: Mayor Turner, Council members: Grady, Bunker, Glodowski, and Duggin

RETURNING TO PUBLIC COMMENT:
Clerk Mary Snyder advised that there was a recent message on the office phone from an individual with a complaint of construction noise starting between 4:00-5:00 AM, but never left a phone number or location of the complaint. Both the Clerk and Mayor listened to the message but were unable to determine the name that was left. Clerk Snyder wanted this to be on public record, incase there is another call.

3) DISCUSSION OF TRAFFIC CONTROL
Council member Glodowski met with Sheriff Rigby in reference to dedicated hours discussion. Each area has allotted hours per month for patrol but can pay additional for dedicated hours. If the town were to pay an additional $10,000.00 per year, this would provide 8-10 additional hours for patrol. In the cost, approximately $70.00 per hour for a patrol unit, vehicle, plus additional expenses to cover things like dispatch. This allows to cover over-time shifts for dedicated hours due to the mainstream of duty hours are spent on the volume of calls.

The Sheriff asked what the goal of the town is and was pleased with the interest. The ultimate goal is to slow the traffic and littering issues, bring more awareness with a patrol unit in the area. The Town would enter an interlocal agreement with the Sheriff’s Office for the dedicated hours agreed upon.

In addition, the Town will need to review where possible funds could be used to cover the additional expense(s), as this would not qualify under the road fund. Speed bumps or humps, stops signs could possibly affect the State Road fund contribution if this is not handled correctly. Plus, speed bumps could also jeopardize the interlocal agreement with Wasatch County Public Works and would need to have discussion with the Director.

Ryan Taylor will look at options for portable monitoring equipment and signs to present to Council at the next meeting as additional options to help remedy the issue.

Council member Glodowski made a motion to continue, seconded by Council member Grady. FOR: Mayor Turner, Council members: Bunker, Grady, Duggin and Glodowski.

4) APPOINTMENT OF AIRPORT ADVISORY BOARD MEMBER:
Mike Duggin has already been appointed for a four-year term

5) DISCUSSION OF NEW HIRE PUBLIC EMPLOYEE:
Council member Duggin did some research of the last years warrants and was able to provide Council with a document of where some possible funds could be used to help cover the cost of replacing the current Water Manager. Planning Commissioner Tom Rawling has expressed some interest in helping with the water needs. At this time, Council will be working to fine tune the job description drafted for posting to see what interest there would be in the position and get it filled.

Council member Grady made a motion to continue for further discussion and working of job description, seconded by Council member Duggin. FOR: Mayor Turner, Council members: Grady, Duggin, Bunker and Glodowski
6) DISCUSSION OF CARES ACT FUNDS; 2nd FUND DISBURSEMENT:
