Ms. Borgione, called the regular meeting to order at 12:05 p.m. Ms. Borgione moved to approve the work session meeting minutes from January 15, 2010 as written. Mr. Jensen seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. Ms. Borgione then made a motion to approve the regular scheduled board meeting minutes from January 19, 2010 as written. Ms. Collinson seconded the motion and it passed unanimously.

Final Snowmaking Usage: Mr. Hanson stated that the 90 million gallon usage quoted at the January meeting, now stands corrected because of an inaccurate start read which was off by 10 million gallons. Thus, the final snowmaking total for Snowbird is 79.6 million gallons. Salt Lake City did approve an additional 50 gallons for snowmaking, although Snowbird did not utilize water from that contract. Snowmaking charges from Salt Lake City Public Utilities have been reviewed by Mr. Hanson and paid at this meeting.

ISO Insurance Rating: ISO a private insurance underwriting company is in the process of auditing county entities, which also include fire departments, (UFA). The purpose of this review is to lower the ISO rating, which ultimately could lower current fire insurance rates. ISO is requesting documents from the Service Area, such as maps including main sizes and hydrant locations, hydraulic schematics of the water system in GIS format and flow data to name a few. Mr. Hanson discussed the importance of a memorandum of understanding between the Service Area and Unified Fire Authority, because of the potential protected status of this information ISO is requesting. Mr. Hanson will keep the board informed.

Source Protection Ordinance: Salt Lake County has been mandated by the Legislature through their safe drinking water revisions, (HB-40), which requires Counties to adopt an ordinance designating drinking water source protection zones for ground water sources. This ordinance requires adoption by May 3, 2010. Mr. Hanson stated that this ordinance helps protect our water sources by law. Mr. Hanson will attend the public hearing if necessary.

New Service Area Truck: The Service Area has purchased a 2009-Chevrolet 2500 truck with utility bed. The final truck purchase price was $23,253.00 out of the approved budgeted amount of $25,000.00. Mr. Hanson calculates that we will be over budget approximately $1,400.00, as we equip this vehicle with proper safety equipment. The work on the truck is being done at AG Truck.

Grama Workshop: The clerk attended a "Record Access I" workshop at the Utah State Archives building . This workshop included training on records access, classification of records and GRAMA requests. The clerk reported that the Utah State Archive website has vast resources available.

Fall Protection Seminar: Steve McIntosh and Kellie Hunsaker attended a safety training at the Cottonwood Improvement office. This training is important in the continuation of our "Culture of Safety".

Policies and Procedures: Mr. Hanson is patiently awaiting a response from Mark Anderson regarding the status of our revisions to our Policies and Procedures Manual.

News Release: Mr. Hanson and the Board discussed the recent KSL-TV news story about the Kearns Improvement District.

2009 Audit Preparation: The clerk has contacted Ryan Tesch with Hansen, Barnett & Maxwell in preparation of the 2009 audit. Our auditors have received our financial data and we will hopefully begin this process mid to late March. Mr. Hanson will be discussing the collection of our impact fees to offset our capital improvements with Mr. Tesch.

Treatment Plant Improvements: SKM engineers have made the recommendation to Mr. Hanson to continue with the air-operated actuators in the tunnel rather than going to electric. Converting to electric would increase the capacity in our scada system and also be expense to modify. Mr. Hanson estimates a savings of $20,000 by re-building the seats of the air actuator valves. Mr. Hanson will be contacting Pureflow in the continuation of this designing phase. Once the final drawings are prepared they will be submitted to the Division of Drinking Water for approval.

Drain Tunnel Meter: The large drain/flow meter which meters the water to the creek and co-gen appears to be inaccurate in reading flows under 120 gpm. We continue to use a portable mag meter to determine the difference between the drain meter and actual meter.

Mr. Hanson reviewed with the Board of Trustees, the Balance Sheet Previous Year Comparison report ending January 31, 2010, and the Profit and Loss Budget vs. Actual ending January 31, 2010, as prepared by Salt Lake County Service Area #3. Budget detail for 2010 has been entered into the Quickbooks program, which reflects accurately on these current reports. The clerk will modify the Profit & Loss - Budget vs. Actual to remove the (Payroll Expenses-0 amount), directly listed under the "Expense" category.

Ms. Borgione moved that the bills listed on the January 20^th, 2010 through February 16^th, 2010 payment registers, as presented by Mr. Hanson hereby be authorized and ratified to be paid by the manager. Ms. Collinson seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. Copies of the approved bills are attached to the minutes.

There being no further business to be discussed, a motion to adjourn was made, seconded and unanimously carried at 12:52 p.m.

Salt Lake County Service Area #3-Snowbird
