It was noted that the last payment to the sewer bond will be paid soon. The administration, the mayor and the City Council agreed that we should lower the sewer rates and keep that commitment to our customers. City Administrator, Adam Bowler will bring a rate reduction to the Council for consideration in the form of a resolution. This budget will be brought to the Council for consideration on June 10, 2026. It was noted that the city administration is responsible with the budget. The budget is a trust issue. Enterprise is committed to the idea that even if we have the money, we do not need to spend it, and we don’t. All of our enterprise funds have an amount of surplus that is built into the budget for surprise expenses. Administration is conservative on the estimating the income, but also conservative on spending.

Emergency Services – Mayor Brandon Humphries

Consideration of Ordinance 2026-01 Wildland Urban Interface Code – Fire Chief Brenden Moody was here to explain the WUI Code and why the city needs to adopt it. HB 48 which was passed by the State of Utah without having written rules for implementation. It was passed to hopefully protect homeowners from insurance company cancellations. Enterprise is a subdivision of the State and also of Washington County, who have already adopted these rules. Therefore, even if we do not adopt the WUI Code, we are still subject to it. Until the rules are made by the state, we do not have any information to give our residents. Right now, there is a lot of guessing about what the rules will be, but no sure information. Adopting the Wildland Urban Interface Code has been made a requirement for wildland fire crew deployments. After some additional discussion, Council Member Bill Fowler made a motion to approve Ordinance 2026-01 and adopt it as City Code Title 8-17. With the understanding that information will go out to the public as soon as we receive it. The motion was seconded by Council Member Kanton Vause. The voice vote showed Council Member Delbert Staheli voted no, and the remainder of the Council voted to approved the motion.
