📰 News we're reading

• Public Notices – June 10 to June 16, 2026 (tooeleonline.com) — Several new public notices this week affect Tooele County residents, including proposed groundwater changes and a nonuse application tied specifically to Erda water rights that neighbors may wish to review or protest by June 30. The notice package also lists upcoming trustee’s sales, estate creditor deadlines, a Tooele school board budget hearing on June 16, and a Grantsville conservation district budget hearing on June 17.
   

• The only states where you can find the last drive-in movie theaters in the US (mexicoledger.com) — Utah’s drive-in movie legacy includes the long-gone Erda Dive-In near Tooele, which opened around the late 1940s or early 1950s and even had its screen rebuilt after a 1991 tornado. The broader feature ranks states by remaining drive-ins per capita, tracing how these nostalgic outdoor theaters rose, declined, and partially rebounded during the pandemic.
