The Grantsville City Council will meet on Nov. 18, 2026, to consider a variety of municipal matters, according to an information packet published Nov. 13. The agenda includes the appointment of a new committee member and a proposed revision to the city's cellular telephone policy.

The council is scheduled to consider Resolution 2026-82, which would appoint Wayne Butler to the Historic Preservation Committee. This committee is tasked with identifying and promoting the historical character and cultural heritage of Grantsville City.

Additionally, the council will consider Resolution 2026-83 to authorize the city's participation in JustServe. This platform is intended to connect individuals and organizations with community service and volunteer opportunities. Under the proposal, the City Manager or a designee would be authorized to coordinate the city's presence on the platform.

Discussions are also planned regarding the purchase and financing of a new aerial ladder fire truck for the Grantsville City Fire Department. A proposal from Rosenbauer Minnesota, LLC outlines a total cost of $1,683,569.00 for a Rosenbauer Aerial with a Commander chassis and Viper Aerial.

Financial documents indicate potential delivery as early as Dec. 10, 2026. The city is evaluating several financing options for the equipment lease, including 5-year, 10-year, and 15-year amortization schedules. A Nov. 13 email from Tim Collins of Graham Fire noted that quotes for the apparatus are valid for 60 days from the date of generation.

The council will also consider Resolution 2026-81, which proposes revisions to the City’s Cellular Telephone Policy. The revised policy would grant the City Manager discretion to determine if employees, elected or appointed officials, and volunteers receive a city-issued device, a monthly allowance, or reimbursement for documented business expenses. The proposal aims to provide greater administrative flexibility based on operational requirements and budgetary resources.

The meeting agenda includes a presentation of the Wellbeing Survey results from Utah State University. The council is also scheduled to review minutes from the Oct. 21, 2026, and Nov. 4, 2026, City Council regular meetings.

The meeting is scheduled for Nov. 18, 2026.
