Mr. Hanson presented Resolution-2008-1, a resolution approving the annual compensation for the Board of Trustees of Salt Lake County Service Area #3. The Board of Trustees discussed this resolution and agreed to increase the annual trustee compensation from $3,500.00 and not to exceed $5,000.00. Ms. Borgione made a motion to approve Resolution 2008-1, under title 17B, Part 3 of the Utah Code 17B-1-313, adopting an annual increase of $1,500.00 per year effective January 29, 2008. Mr. Bennett seconded the motion and it passed unanimously.

Ms. Borgione moved that the minutes from the December 11^th, 2007 regularly scheduled board meeting be approved as corrected. Ms. Collinson seconded the motion and it passed unanimously.

To date Snowbird has used approximately 46,000,000 gallons in snowmaking water. Snowmaking is complete for the season, although the line to the mine is not drained. There is a leak in snowbird system in the Peruvian Gulch area which is directly affecting the water in the Peruvian mine. This leak has caused flooding in the snowmaking vaults which has put Snowbird employees at risk with extremely dangerous high voltage surroundings. This problem will be repaired once weather permits. Mr. Hanson suspects the leak is located in Baldy Flats.

Mr. Hanson will be sending the Service Area Policies and Procedures manual electronically to Mr. Smith. Van Cott will assign their legal specialist to review this document verifying our compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration, (OSHA), Utah Retirement Systems and Utah Local Governments Trust. Ms. Borgione asked the cost for this review. Mr. Hanson stated that it should be approximately $3,000 to review.

Mr. Hanson and Mr. McIntosh recently met with the mayor of the Town of Alta and the administration, to select an engineering firm for the Town of Alta antimony project. To assist in the selection process from the 6 engineering presentations, Mr. Hanson had score sheets he created with various questions of importance. The Town of Alta and Service Area made the decision to hire Bowen Collins & Associates, Inc. Mr. Hanson has received calls from the other engineering firms who were not selected to explain to them why they were not chosen. At a recent State of Utah-Division of Drinking Water Board meeting, Mr. Hanson was approved a $50,000 planning grant for the Town of Alta from the drinking water board. These funds will pay for the engineering study and preliminary design work for the antimony project. State Senator, Carlene Walker was also present at this meeting and the Division of Drinking Water would like her to sponsor legislation for an earmark from a state level for this treatment plant in the Town of Alta.

Mr. Hanson is in need of a new snow blower for the building and stated it will cost $3,000.00. This is not a budgeted item, although it will be adjusted in the future.

We have been having technical difficulties with our scada/telemetry computer. The current problem is that there is no communication from our remote computers to the office computer. In the 2008 budget under capital expenditures there is a budgeted amount of $10,000 for a new scada computer and software upgrade. The new scada computer will arrive tomorrow and we have the new software. The bill for the computer will be paid today in the check register.

Mr. Hanson attended a water rally last week at the State capital with the State Legislature. There are a number of water issues which will directly affect Salt Lake City, although not directly affecting the Service Area. Mr. Hanson did report on a piece of legislation of concern for the Service Area. Currently, if anyone in our Service Area is conducting underground work, the Service Area is notified by Blue Stakes to locate the sewer and water main lines. New legislation for underground utilities states that we are responsible for the laterals to the homes. Cottonwood Improvement District, Central Valley and South Davis Sewer District are fighting this legislation. Mr. Hanson will update the board with further information on legislative updates.

Mr. Hanson does not have any major field projects planned for the summer, but some capital projects include installing fiber optic line from our building to the tunnel while construction is under way at the Superior Residents Club. Mr. Hanson will be pulling the grating/flooring out of the tunnel and cleaning it. Upgrades in the filter plant include cleaning the area and installing new meters and valves.

Mr. Hanson suggested to the board that rather than put our full time summer worker on our health insurance plan for a 6 month period, we would in turn pay their cobra expenses for that period.

Mr. Hanson reviewed with the Board of Trustees the financial reports for the period ending December 31, 2007. Mr. Hanson presented a balance sheet previous year comparison and a profit and loss budget vs. actual report, as prepared by the staff of Salt Lake County Service Area #3.

Ms. Borgione moved that the bills listed on the December 12^th, 2007 through January 29^th, 2007 payment registers, as presented by Mr. Hanson hereby be authorized and ratified to be paid by the manager. Trustee checks for January 2008 were printed and issued after this meeting and will be included on the next check register for approval. Mr. Bennett seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. A copy of the approved bills is attached to the minutes.

Mr. Hanson and Mr. McIntosh will be attending the annual Rural Water Association of Utah conference February 26^th through February 29^th, in St. George.

There being no further business to be discussed, a motion to adjourn was made, seconded and unanimously carried at 1:06 p.m.
