Power Board

The Hurricane Power Board will hold a regular meeting to approve minutes, receive staff reports, and discuss several items. Key topics include a possible recommendation on a solar policy variance for Kimberly and Clark Sevy, the year-end power department report, and updates from UAMPS. The board may also enter a closed meeting as permitted by Utah law.

• Discussion and possible recommendation on Solar Policy variance for Kimberly and Clark Sevy
• Year End Power Department Report by Scott Hughes
• UAMPS Updates by Scott Hughes
• Approval of minutes from December 2024
• Closed meeting pursuant to Utah Code Section 52-4-205

The Hurricane City Power Board voted unanimously to recommend keeping the existing solar policy as is, effectively denying a variance request from Clark and Kimberly Sevy to install solar on their townhouse. The board noted it lacks authority to grant variances and that any change would require a policy revision submitted to the City Council. The board also approved the December 2024 meeting minutes and received reports on line crew work, the year-end department report, and UAMPS updates.

• Approved December 2024 meeting minutes (unanimous, Hirschi abstained)
• Recommended keeping existing solar policy unchanged (unanimous)
• Denied variance request for solar installation on townhouse (implicitly, via policy recommendation)
