Utah Rural Summit

Spent the day in Cedar City at the annual Utah rural Summit.  Heard from Lieutenant Governor Bell and he shared a favorable information on the state of Utah's economy.  I attended several sessions regarding the nurturing of technology business in rural Utah and the theory and application of economic gardening in an effort to cultivate and help our local businesses grow.  It was a great day.

Water Issues

The photo above is of one of the City's diversions.  Last fall there was no overhang.  We built up boulders and other material in an effort to support our diversion structure but the sheer force of the spring runoff washed away a 15'-20' pile of boulders away.  We are currently working on finding a more sustainable fix for supporting the overhanging structure.
