Town hall meeting is set Wednesday

FARMINGTON — Davis County's elected and appointed officials have scheduled an evening town hall meeting Wednesday for the public to learn about issues affecting the county.

The 7 p.m. meeting will be in Room 230 of the Davis County Memorial Courthouse, 28 E. State, Farmington.

Kicking off the meeting will be a brief update on the $25 million Davis County jail expansion project. Other topics will be addressed during the public question-and-answer period with the elected and appointed officials.

"This meeting is a two-way street," said commission chairwoman Carol Page. "We always look forward to any opportunity for us to learn first-hand what issues are of concern to the citizens that we serve. And our citizens get their questions or concerns heard by the officials that work those issues," she said. "This is definitely a win-win situation for all of us."

Members of the public wanting to speak during the meeting should sign up just before or during the meeting. Based upon the sign-up sheet, concerns or questions will be heard on a first-come, first-served basis. A maximum of three minutes per speaker is requested to allow time for several issues to be addressed at the meeting.

"We're hoping that having this town hall meeting during the evening hours allows many more of our Davis County citizens a chance to meet and hear from those people serving them within county government," Page said.
