10-13-2026 Bountiful City Council Regular Session

Bountiful City Council regular session, October 13, 2026. The council approved expenditures over $1,000 paid September 16, 23, and 30, along with the August financial reports. It also approved purchase and installation of a replacement pump motor for the Viewmont well after the recently installed motor failed; the purchase amount was not stated, and staff noted $60,000 was budgeted for contingencies. The council approved an $85,920 purchase from Baycom for 16 ruggedized laptops and docking stations. Staff said the purchase accelerated equipment planned across three years because of an expected price increase and would be funded from the computer replacement fund, without reopening the budget.

The council unanimously adopted Resolution 2026-14, increasing the authorized fiber interfund-loan limit to $8 million while retaining the five-year term, and requested annual updates on fiber uptake and the loan balance. Staff reported fiber take rates of about 17.48% through September and described marketing efforts. The council also unanimously adopted Resolution 2026-15 to vacate excess public right-of-way on Bountiful Boulevard and Resolution 2026-16 declaring approximately 0.235 acres surplus and approving its sale to Keller family properties for $140,000. The transaction is to be coordinated with a subdivision and includes a widened sidewalk and trail connection; staff reported no expected impact on utilities.
