Bits and Pieces During the recent federal government partial shutdown which began on December 22, 2018 and lasted 35-days, some 800,000 federal workers nationwide were furloughed or worked without pay. Ogden is home to a large contingent that was affected by the shutdown some 5,000 IRS workers, U.S. Forest Service employees and others. Frank Blair, a property owner in Marriott-Slaterville filed a suit in late December in Ogden's 2"'' District Court, pitting him against the Central Weber Sewer Improvement District and Brigham City-based Whitaker Construction. Blair alleges the entities have failed to adequately compensate him for the use and disruption of his land. He said the project, which concluded about three years ago, also affected his property values. Blair's land runs from 1200 West to I- 15 at about 800 North. His parcel was one of several needed for the BDO Outfall Sewer, which greatly expanded sewer capacity in the fast-growing northern side of Weber County. |
