By Myrna Trauntvein Juab County Commissioners are planning to redraw the borders of the school district and have formed a committee to help determine the best way to redraw so that new populations as well as the previous populations will be served. Darin Clark, Juab School District Financial Administrator, is part of that committee and reported on some possible divisions to the school board. “We are trying to redraw so that the current members of the board will remain in the district they are currently in,” said Clark. Boundaries, however, will be changed to encompass the growing populations of each of the communities that need to be included. Those communities are: Levan, Nephi, Mona and Rocky Ridge, he said. “Levan will likely be just Levan,” said Clark. Presently, part of Nephi is included with Levan and is represented by Linda Hanks, board president. The committee will likely recommend grouping Mona and Rocky Ridge into one district that may start at Burraston Ponds. The west fields could be another district, he said. The proposed maps are still being worked on and nothing is yet set in stone, he said. However, the redistricting will take place but will not affect the November election this year. Federal, state, and county elections occur every even year. In odd numbered years, Utah holds municipal elections, including most special district elections.
