Mr. Pett reported that before the state will approve a filing on this water, the ones filing must show a beneficial use for it and if the counties file on this water, they will have to show why it should be granted to them rather than others who have filed on it. The commissioners spoke of the possibility of a plant in this area in connection with the development of the mineral in the Great Salt Lake, and if such a development occurs, there would be a need for a lot of water. They also said this county has a lot of area where this water could be stored and used for commercial purposes. felt the The commissioners need of a little more time to study the proposition and find answers to several questions on the matter, and promised to arrange a meeting with the Weber County commissioners to discuss this matter with them.

The commissioners reminded Mr. Mason that they have nothing to do with where the school busses are sent but if they make that trip, the county will have to push the snow back as soon as they can. They discussed the possibility of moving the ditch, which is so high it causes heavy drifts along the road. This will be further considered with the County road supervisor and the owner of the property. The attention of the commissioners was called to a road matter near the Farm Labor camp in Tremonton by Max Hyde, Bill Storrer and Russ Brown. They reported on a drain ditch which should drain into the canal, but has filled in and backs up the water making a mosquito breeding place. They asked about having the drain put straight through instead of coming up the side of the road then jogging back over to the roadway, and hoped this might be done while the road crew was working in that area. The commissioners agreed to have Commissioner Burton and Mr. Storrer look over the situation and find out why it was put in the way it is. Sheriff Warren Hyde reported to the commissioners that if the need rises again, his department would be able to provide a commisary to feed and provide drinking water for persons who would be fighting range fires, as they have done in past years.

Voting Districts Conform to Wards Reconsideration of a previously suggested change of voting districts in Brigham City by the County Commissioners resulted in a change which now makes all voting districts conform to the LDS ward boundaries. This necessitated changing the representative school precincts, the chief difference .being that the 15th and 18th voting districts will now be with the 7th representative school district The only change concerns the three blocks which were taken from the Brigham Third and when the Brigham Seventh Brigham Fifteenth Ward was organized. They will now be associated with the Third representative district, which puts three more voting districts in District 3 than formerly. |
