New City Council

Mayor Lloyd Berentzen and City Council members Nancy Potter and John Bailey were sworn into office January 4.

 

 

Their first item of business during the council meeting January 6 was to fill the vacancy left by Lloyd Berentzen's becoming mayor.  They appointed Allen Kartchner to fill that two-year vacancy on the City Council.

Several goals and issues that will be important over the next few months and years which were discussed by the new mayor and council during their first meeting included:

1.      Hyde Park’s use of the Library terminates 30 June 2011 – 18 months from now.  What can or should be done regarding Hyde Park residents' use of the North Logan Library?

2.      Is it important for North Logan to make boundary changes with Logan City to straighten up the common boundary on the west side of Main Street?

3.      Do we want to continue the work towards the construction of a new city office and/or police station building(s)?

4.      Is the Energy Sales and Use Tax something we should wean ourselves from and eliminate?

5.      Does North Logan want to establish a Cemetery District? 

6.      The Mayor and City Council discussed storm water issues especially as they relate to the canal projects being considered. 

7.      Is there an interest in pressing forward with any new roads? For examples – 3100 N from 1600 E to Main; 2500 N from 1250 to 1600 E; widening 2500 N along the city's frontage at Elk Ridge Park "West"; 100 E from 1800 to 2000 N.

8.      Should we investigate opportunities to move the Public Works shops out of its current residential location to a more industrial area?

If North Logan Citizens have any opinions on any of the above issues, the council would be interested in hearing from you.
