Hopes take oath and joins Carbon County Commission

Carbon County’s newest member of the county commission, Casey Hopes was sworn in on Monday, January 7 at noon in the Carbon County Commission Chambers by Judge Elaine Storrs. В  Hopes is the second republican to take a seat on the three person panel. Jae Potter broke the democratic strangle hold in the last election. Hopes replaces long time commissioner Mike Milovic who chose not to run for re-election this term.

When asked what he saw as the biggest challenge ahead, Hopes answered, “Making sure the county is in good shape for our kids. That includes financial, roads and everything else is set up for the future.”

He also said that even though the decision to allow the Gooseberry Dam gone against Carbon County, it remains for Sanpete to come up with the funding for it and that is a big hurdle since they will need a lot. But he was not prepared yet to say if Carbon County has anymore moves left to fight it because he needs to spend time pouring over the documents and being brought up to speed.
