Description/Agenda

Woodruff Town Board Meeting March 18, 2026 Minutes from the Woodruff Town Board meeting held March 18, 2026 at the Town Hall at 5:00 p.m. Those present: Board Members: Monika Schulthess (435) 881-9098, mayor@woodruff.utah.gov Tyler Walker (801) 589-4588, tylerbrianwalker@gmail.com Joel Marler (801) 567-1195, joelmarler@me.com Raymond Frandsen (801) 448-1545 Briton Brown (801) 243-2238, briton259@gmail.com Clerk: Allie Deru (435) 793-4201, clerk@woodruff.utah.gov Woodruff residents that came to support Ray Bradshaw Lorri Frandsen Mayor Monika Schulthess opened the meeting. The meeting started with Ray Bradshaw's presentation of his new Freedom Wall in the Town Hall. His Scout Troop presented the flags and led the room in the Pledge of Allegiance. He gave a small speech and expressed appreciation to those who helped him with his Eagle Scout project. Spencer Huffaker also gave a speech about freedom and what it means to him who served in the United States Marine Corps. The town board amended the budget to include the money that is being spent to upgrade and install a new play structure at the park. Joel Marler made a motion to approve the budget amendment. Tyler Walker seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mayor Schulthess discussed developing a new land use ordinance including a new zoning map through Kendall Welch with Jones and DeMille Engineering. The zoning map is old and needs to be updated. A new land use ordinance was developed in 2023 but never adopted in an official meeting but there are new state codes that need to be put in to make sure the Town is in compliance. Kendall will use the existing ordinance and update it. It was decided that we will get a quote from Kendall. Tyler Walker made a motion to have Jones and DeMille Engineering to look at the land use ordinance and update the zoning map. Joel Marler seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Briton Brown brought up the idea of updating the floodplain map in the town as well. Mayor Schulthess presented a new Rezoning Application. Briton Brown made a motion to approve the application. Joel Marler seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Joel Marler presented an idea to the board about a trade between him doing the work for updating the big room in the Town Hall in exchange for the backhoe. He has a business that does resurfacing with a product called Reatec that can be a quick and easy install. He could cover the panel back wall as well as the big cabinet and the countertop. It is commercial grade and will hide any seams. There are many different options of what it can look like. Joel can bring in a sample next month and the board can discuss what color/type they'd like. Depending on cost of installation and backhoe, Joel is willing to work with the town on paying the difference between the two. Research is going to be done before next board meeting about costs and then a decision will be made. The board also discussed different flooring in the big room. Lorri Frandsen came to the meeting to voice her opinion about keeping carpet in the room instead of doing concrete flooring because of the noise factor. Without carpet, there is concern that it will be too loud as well as potentially scratching the floor and the possibility of someone slipping on it if it were to get wet. Paul Webb is going to repaint the bowery pillars and finish redoing the tables at the park. He will pick up new siding to repair the new garage section. The lawn mower is ready and he will turn on the water in May. Because of low water, he is going to plan on watering three days a week at both the rodeo grounds and the park. He will also get the new slide put in to replace the cracked one. Terri Knudsen applied for a business application for a donut food truck. Tyler Walker made a motion to approve the business license. Joel Marler seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. The county wants the town to make this 4th of July a little more special this year because it is the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The county has said they will help fund some of the extra parts we decide on. The theme will probably be Freedom 250 or America 250. There are social media accounts for that theme that we can add Ray Bradshaw's Freedom Wall to. Monika also suggested the board doing a float in the parade this year. This will be a continued discussion over the next few months. Joel Marler thinks we really need to advertise with some good signage to attract people. Craig Showalter said he will move his electric fence back so that Paul has better access to put up the flags. Joel Marler made a motion to approve March minutes. Briton Brown seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Joel Marler made a motion to approve the April bills. Briton Brown seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. The power has been higher than previous years down at the rodeo grounds. Monika is going to check on what's plugged in down there to see what the difference could be. Raymond Frandsen suggested getting a new microwave for the kitchen in the Town Hall. Briton Brown made a motion to approve that purchase. Tyler Walker seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Allie Deru discussed a different plan for phone and internet in the office. Starlink is a possibility for Internet. There were different ideas presented for a phone in the office. Allie is going to look more into it. Joel Marler made a motion to approve $150 donation to the Rich County Jr. Rodeo. Tyler Walker seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Meeting was adjourned at 6:00 p.m. _______________________________________ Clerk
