Juab County received a check for $5,707.83 from the Division of Wildlife Resources as an in-lieu of taxes payment.

Jordan Pederson, representing the division, said the money was a payment in behalf of the sportsmen who hunted and fished in the county on property administered by the DWR.

"This is money that comes from license fees and the like," said Pederson. The money is placed in a DWR account and is paid to the counties for property taxes that could have been collected by the county if the property were privately owned.

"The in-lieu of taxes money is paid on behalf of property DWR has in Juab County," said Pederson.
