August minutes
Approved
The council approved the August 2026 meeting minutes.
Item 2 · Roads and utilities
New flagpole and flags
Pending
The council will obtain a quote for the cement pad the flagpole needs and ask whether the contractor could pour it while the town's curb work is under way. A town official will look into how much of the work the town could do itself.
Item 3 · Public safety
New road signs
Pending
The county will be asked whether it can help with signs in town; signs meeting a UDOT road will be installed by UDOT. The signs and their placement must go on the next council agenda, which the council noted makes them legal so officers can cite violations.

Halloween hayride and America 250 barbecue
Approved
The barbecue starts at 3:00 and the hayride at 4:30. The town will provide hamburgers, hot dogs, water, root beer and cups, and will post the events on its Facebook pages in early October and again days before.

Treasurer's report and monthly bills
Approved
The council reviewed the treasurer's report and approved paying the monthly bills.
Item 8 · Other
Council reports

A council member reported the Tourism group gave $25,000 toward county ambulances.

A zoning permit request raised whether the town has an ordinance barring single-wide trailers.
