Sitterud passion in this area was enhanced when his daughter and her husband moved out of the area, taking his three grandsons with them. He is already looking for industry or manufacturing companies that would consider locating in Emery County. His hope is that the nuclear power plant will become a reality near Green River and that tourism can also be developed in that area. Sitterud feels that commissioners should be conservative and not raise taxes but rather have the funds before they spend. He is concerned that Emery County’s economy may get worse before it gets better and hopes to be an instrument for the county in avoiding that scenario by increasing business investments.
