2) Disconnect Request- Nater Enterprises LLC
Council member Grady made a motion for a denial of the Nater Enterprises disconnect request based on the following items brought forth in the proceedings and public comment:
1- The request if granted could lead to hap hazard zoning and overlapping functions of government and could unnecessarily place a large burden on the tax payers
2- The culinary water authority has not responded, in detail or substance.
3- The property lies within a special service district.
4- There has been no application of services, outside of what the property has historically been provided.
5- The request is lacking, premature, analysis deficient.
6- The standard of review has not been met in my opinion, see Herriman City vs Draper City
7- Compelling, countervailing public interest would be jeopardized, if granted.
8- The property has been included in the General Plan, land use plan, zoning and ongoing long-range planning associated with overall community, sense of belonging municipality’s identity and future well-being.
9- This property lies contiguous to the Town and is in fact a main corridor, to the entrance of Daniel which has limited entrances, thereby cutting off access to guide planning.
10- The property is one of two entrances, into Daniel directly off Highway 40 corridor thus impeding the future long-range planning and the economic future of Daniel Town.
11- The Town has spent considerable time planning in cooperation with other municipalities and UDOT, to preserve the highway and has planned entrances accordingly with the public’s interest in mind. This request if granted, would affect, undo the cooperation agreement signed by these parties.
12- This disconnect would create an island of unincorporated land.
13- No map was obtained in the second application.
This motion was seconded by Council member Bunker. All members were in favor.
3) Disconnect Request- Mary Jo Coleman

2- The property immediately east is owned by the same Trust and is being served by Daniel Municipal Water Company and provides fire protection.
3- There has been no application for services, or Zoning outside of what has been historically provided to this parcel.
4- The request is lacking, premature, and analysis deficient.

8- This property lies within the Daniel Town at its incorporation date of 2006. This boundary was established by Wasatch County officials and County Council, with feasibility study conducted prior to incorporation and this disconnect may jeopardize this study and the feasibility of Daniel Town.
9- This property is currently located in the industrial zone and may inhibit future transportation corridors and service area, if request is granted.
10- The Town has spent considerable time and resources planning in cooperation with adjoining municipalities to keep continuity at the boundaries and this disconnect would inhibit these interlocal agreements and cooperation efforts.
