Millard County road-vacation petition, fire and flood fund hearing top recent meeting agendas

No recorded decisions came out of Millard County's government meetings over the past two weeks. Every meeting in the records supplied for this roundup is listed as an agenda only, with minutes not yet published. What follows is what was scheduled, not what was settled.

The Millard County Commission scheduled a public hearing for October 6 at 10:30 a.m. in Fillmore on a petition from Bryan Harris and Notch Peak Project, LLC to vacate portions of Millard County Roads 639, 642, 643, 4089 and 4184, and to vacate Roads 644, 645, 647, 648, 4153, 4184 and 3989 in full.

A third commission notice for October 6, a 10:00 AM meeting at 50 S Main, Fillmore, contains only logistics and a link to an agenda PDF that was not included in the supplied text, so no items from that session can be reported.

2027 budget work sessions

What the records do not show

The supplied documents contain no vote tallies, no approved motions and no dollar amounts for any of these meetings. Whether the commission acted on the road petition, the fund transfers or the 2027 budget is not established by the records reviewed here. Missing minutes are not evidence that no action was taken.

Millard County boards take up road vacations, energy zoning and budget transfers

Millard County's Planning Commission, Commission and Fair Board all met in the first week of October, with agendas covering county road vacations, a proposed energy overlay zone, campground permits and a budget hearing on fire and flood mitigation. No minutes have been published in the records supplied for any of these meetings, so no decisions, outcomes or vote tallies can be reported. What follows comes from the posted agendas.

The roads lie in T15S R8W and T15S R7W, Salt Lake Base and Meridian, within the proposed Notch Peak project site.

Energy overlay zone and campground permits

The Planning Commission's October 1, 2026 agenda included a public hearing and possible recommendation on Application #Z-2026-042, which would amend the county zoning map to create a new overlay zone for Large-Scale Energy Projects. The same agenda listed two conditional use permit applications: #Z-2026-080 for a private campground at approximately 380 N 2000 W, Delta, from applicants Tim & Loreen Bliss, and #Z-2026-081 for a commercial campground at approximately 794 N 7000 W, Delta, from applicant Bonnie Tolbert.

Two other records for the same date describe a 5:30 p.m. work session at the Millard County Offices, 71 South 200 West, Delta, on possible overlay zone areas for large-scale, solar and wind energy projects, with no decisions or votes scheduled. The third record lists 6:30 p.m. for the same date. The supplied records do not reconcile the times. County Planner Adam Richins is listed as the contact, 1-435-864-1406.

Fair Board: 2027 dates, budget and theme

A record for October 5, 2026 at 6:00 p.m. at 81 Manzanita Ave. in Delta lists discussion of the 2026 Fair, possible approval of 2027 fair dates, discussion of the 2027 budget, theme ideas for 2027 and approval of new volunteers. The record's body field says "Tourism Board" while its headline and summary refer to the Fair Board; the supplied data does not resolve the difference.

A Commission notice with no listed items

A separate notice for an October 6, 2026 Commission meeting at 10:00 a.m. at 50 S Main, Fillmore, UT 84631 contains only meeting logistics and a link to an agenda PDF, 26-1006-Agenda.pdf.

ADA accommodations are available through the Millard County Clerk's Office, 765 South Highway 99, Suite 6, Fillmore, at 435 743-6223 or 864-2440.

Millard County moves on post-fire watershed work, EMS contract; zoning hearings set

Millard County is advancing two emergency-response efforts: a solicitation for engineering services to protect watersheds after the Widemouth 2 Fire and a new countywide ambulance contract. The county also has a series of public hearings on zoning changes and budget work sessions scheduled over the next two weeks.

Post-fire watershed protection

The Millard County Commission is seeking qualifications from engineering firms for emergency watershed protection services under the NRCS Emergency Watershed Protection program. The work addresses flooding, debris flow, and erosion hazards after the Widemouth 2 Fire, which began July 26, 2026. The county is acting as funding sponsor for Meadow Town, Kanosh Town, and Fillmore City.

Responses were due Aug. 17, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. The evaluation weights are: qualifications 25%, experience 25%, team 20%, availability 20%, and fee 10%.

EMS contract for two-zone service area

The commission is also opening proposals for a new Emergency Medical Services contract covering two zones: the greater county area (Zone 1) and the Intermountain Power Plant (Zone 2). The RFP includes 911 response and interfacility transports from Delta and Fillmore hospitals. The incumbent 911 provider retains first right to interfacility transports under Utah SB 215.

Evaluation criteria: qualifications (20 pts), staffing/resources (20), cost-effectiveness (20), quality (20), and access (20), with a bonus of 10 pts for providers with 5+ years in a 5th class Utah county. Minimum insurance requirements are $1M general liability per occurrence, $3M aggregate; $1M cyber liability per occurrence, $3M aggregate.

Proposals were due Aug. 17, 2026, and were opened at the commission meeting Aug. 18, 2026, at 10:00 AM. The award is anticipated Sept. 1.

Upcoming budget work meetings

The commission will hold a series of budget work meetings from Aug. 31 to Sept. 23, 2026, to review the tentative 2027 operational, capital, and long-term budgets. Department and office appointments may be considered. Meetings are open to the public at 50 South Main, Fillmore.
