BLUEBELL CONNECTOR PROJECT DISCUSSION

 

This project is a joint project between Roosevelt City, Duchesne County, and UDOT.  Upon receiving the bids, it was determined that this project would not be possible because bids came in above the engineers estimate.  This meeting was scheduled to see if there was some way the entities could cooperate in a way that would enable the project to proceed.  After review and discussion, a motion was made by Councilman Dave Woolstenhulme to commit $200,000 from Roosevelt City toward this project if Duchesne County would commit another $200,000 to the project to make it feasible.  Motion seconded by Vaun Ryan.  Motion carried unanimously.
