Caleb Washburn met with the commission to request approval for the Mona Peaks Subdivision located west of Mona along the Goshen Road.

“Seven lots would be the maximum number allowed,” said Colby Park, county planning director.

The property once belonged to Sharon Michaels and is west of the Goshen Road on the west of Mona and is near the tomato greenhouse and the Currant Creek power station.

“I have different wells,” said Washburn.

Marvin Kenison, commissioner, said he had a suggestion for Washburn. He thought it would be wise to tie his two wells together in case of an emergency.

“You wouldn’t have to use the connection unless there was an emergency,” he said. “It can be a good back-up.”

Washburn said the well he had drilled was at 500-feet in depth but another developer had recently drilled one at 250-feet.

Park said that Washburn had met all of the requirements to have a subdivision and would be building the infrastructure needed.

Clinton Painter, commissioner, made the motion to approve the Mona Peaks Subdivision, Kenison made the second and, upon Marty Palmer, commission chairman, calling for a vote, all voted in favor.
