County officials discuss conservancy districts and road funding
District representatives debated enlarging conservancy districts and revising the Acro-foot charge. Commissioner Grant Southam reported on a meeting with the State Road Commission about an Interstate road from Red Wash oil fields to the highway. The county eyed funding and contact with companies for matching funds, citing Red Wash area property value around 2 million dollars. The group also supported a truck weighing station to aid county funds. Utah Water and Power Board allocated another 1 million toward revolving funds and approved 100,000 for White Rocks Lake to provide 20 percent more water, with work set to begin in June. Dale Jensen urged endorsing Jack C. Turner for a new term on the State Fish and Game Board. Civics groups will dine Feb 1 at the National Guard Armory to raise funds for projects. Visitors included Bill Thomas of Thomas Lumber Co. and Larry Memmett of Utah Woolgrowers and Wool Marketing Agency.
