Construction is progressing nicely on Cottonwood Heights new Mountview Park,
which is expected to be completed this spring.
Mountview Park should
be completed by May
By Jessica Montgomery
Only the last phases of con-
struction remain before the new
city park in Cottonwood Heights
is completed. City planning direc-
tor Brian Berndt said he hopes to
see the grand opening of the park
in May of this year.
At a city council work session in
December, Berndt reported all verti-
cal building would be completed by
the end of 2011. The fnal landscap-
ing, including a boulder with a sign
for the park and a hiking trail, will
be fnished by springtime.
Berndt also displayed tiles
with painted pictures that will be
used in the park restrooms.
Local fourth graders did
the artwork, Berndt said, as he
passed them around the room and
council members admired the

Plans for a multi-use park in Holladay approved
By Raili Jacquet
It may look like scrub brush
now, but the property surround-
ing Tuscany Restaurant and along
Cottonwood Creek fnally has
a plan and it is approved. The
Holladay City Council approved
plans on Dec. 1 to eventually de-
velop Knudsen Park, the eight-
acre stretch of land west of the
I-215 freeway at 6200 South.
Councilmember Lynn Pace
gave a brief background of the
history and ownership of the
land, describing the master plan
process as a vision statement as
to what the future will be.
It gives a blueprint for mov-
ing forward as funds become avail-
able to do so, Pace said. This has
been something pending since the
time of the citys existence, and it
is time to move forward.
Before the vote, coun-
cilmember Jim Palmer said that
before city leaders created the
open space master plan, a con-
sultant was hired to survey every
household in the city.
An astounding 85 percent
of the residents that responded
supported the open space plan,

City leaders plan to protect
Holladays fnest asset trees
Tree-lined streets have always
been a signature of Holladay
living, and city leaders intend to
keep them thriving.
By Raili Jacquet
Lush, plentiful trees have
been always been a signature
sight in Holladay, and city
leaders plan to cultivate that
asset by starting a tree commit-
tee. A small group of residents,
council members and garden-
ing professionals met on Dec.
5 to work on the committees
long and short-term goals.
I am very anxious to get
this started, Councilmember
Pat Pignanelli said. Trees are
the symbol in Holladay, and as
citizens we need to learn how
to care for our trees and which
types to plant.
One of the tentative plans
is to have a professional ar-
borist speak to the city volun-
teers after the annual spring
clean-up event in April, and
have a tree planting after the
luncheon. Committee mem-
bers also plan to create an edu-
cational website, with a link from
the citys website to continue to
inform the public about trees.
Wed like to fnd out how we
can get more involvement from
our citys master gardeners and

The empty lot, once home to the Video Verns store in Holladay, may fnally look different at this time next year. New developers,
Rockworth Companies, received approval on the development agreement and are moving forward with Holladays Village Center project.
Village Center moves toward planning phase
By Raili Jacquet
A resolution that passed quietly and
unanimously at the Dec. 8 Holladay City
Council meeting didnt sound monumen-
tal, but it was the solid step Rockworth De-
velopers needed to begin the next phase for
the Village Center project. The council ad-
opted the development agreement for the
revised two-story mixed-use project on the
northwest corner of Holladay Boulevard
and Murray-Holladay Road.
What you just heard sounded rela-
tively simple, but it has actually been many,
many, many months in the making, Coun-
cilmember Lynn Pace said. I commend all
of those that worked so hard and put in the
long hours.
Transitioning developers from Cow-
boy Partners, who were awarded the ini-
tial bid in November 2005, to Rockworth
Companies in September 2011, has been
a process that has gone quicker than most
expected. Not having the hurdles of con-
vincing a reticent council on a three-story
building with residential in the heart of
the city, Rockworth developers have ef-
fciently moved forward without much
opposition.
Community Development Director
Paul Allred said the city settled with Cow-
boy Partners to take care of the costs as-
sociated with the work put into the project,
and characterized the approval of the de-
velopment agreement to be a big deal. A
release was signed just before the holiday

Cottonwood Heights City budget
receives recognition
By Jessica Montgomery
For the ffth consecutive year, Cotton-
wood Heights City was recognized by the
U.S. Government Finance Offcers Asso-
ciation for excellence in budgeting. GFOA
assistant state representative of Utah David
Muir presented the Distinguished Budget
Presentation Award to city fnance director
Steve Fawcett at a city council meeting in
December.
Cottonwood Heights is one of a small
season allowing Rockworth to begin
frm plans.
Although the initial timeline to
start construction was optimistic and is
already obsolete, Rockworth developer
Tom Henriod said the plans to break
ground in mid-2012 still stand.
We are looking at a 90 to 120-
day period for our architects to draw
up plans, have them reviewed and ap-
proved, Henriod said. After that, it
will take about a month to break ground
and we will have approximately a nine
to ten-month construction period.
Once the development plans have
been drawn, they will go through the
citys design review board, technical re-
view committee and planning commis-
sion for approval.
percentage of agencies in Utah who receive
this award, Muir said.
In order to receive this recognition,
the citys budget was assessed to determine
how well it serves as a policy document,
a fnancial plan, an operations guide and a
communications guide.
Earlier this year, Fawcett said the pro-
gram is intended to help the public, as well
as the council, know that weve used a sort of
approved process from a professional stand-
point. Were putting [the budget] together
according to certain, high standards.
The GFOA describes the award as a
refection of the commitment of [Cotton-
wood Heights] governing body and staff
to meeting the highest principles of gov-
ernmental budgeting.
Henriod said he felt positively about
the way the project is moving forward, and
everyone at the city level has been working
hard to overcome any obstacles.
We are really encouraged and excited
to get started, Henriod said.

With a stable rating from Standard and
Poors, Holladay city offcials are working
toward refnancing bonds at a lower rate
and gathering enough capital to build a
new fre station on the property where the
Holladay Community Garden currently sits.
Holladay City gets
straight As, moves
forward with new
fre station plans
By Raili Jacquet
Not unlike the coveted school report
card that determines the future of a stu-
dent, a citys credit rating affects its ability
to get fnanced. Holladay City was recently
re-ranked by Standard and Poors with an
AA rating, a rank just one notch lower
than the federal government. City offcials
used the new ranking as part of a process
to refnance existing bonds and fund the re-
build of a much-needed fre station.
We knew the city had a strong credit
rating, and we took that rating and used it to
bid in the bond market, Zions Bank Vice
President of Public Finance Alan Westen-
skow said. We had bids ranging from 2.88
percent on the low end to 3.34 percent on
the high end.
City Manager Randy Fitts said the
higher percentage was very close to what
he was anticipating, so the lower numbers
were a pleasant surprise.
Refnancing the existing 2004 bond at
the lower rate will allow the city to be able
to afford the $3.5 million fre station with-
out dramatically impacting the citys gen-
eral fund. Once the bonds are refnanced,
the 2011 bonds will generate a net present
value savings of almost 8 percent, or more
than $102,000 per year. The new bonds
will mature in 2031.
Perhaps the only dark cloud in the
bright outlook of building a new fre sta-
tion is that the Holladay Community Gar-
den will have to be relocated. Garden or-
ganizer Doug Stark started the community
garden in 2007 and has enjoyed seeing the
participation grow each year.
We went from 12 people involved
with 15 garden plots to 70 people partici-
pating with 80 garden plots, Stark said.
We have just increased it every year.
Not having access to as large of a plot
as before, Stark said the community garden
will have to be split up into smaller gar-
dens throughout the city.
Gathering up the mounds of donations from Holladay residents, the citys youth
council geared up for a day of volunteering at The Road Home. Pictured from left:

Donations by the truckload Holladay
residents support The Road Home
By Raili Jacquet
Tis the season for caring and shar-
ing, and for the ffth consecutive year,
the Holladay Youth Council embraced
the holiday spirit to spearhead a drive
for donations to The Road Home. With
the generosity of Holladay residents,
support from the Holladay Chamber
of Commerce and local businesses, a
truckload of supplies were delivered on
Dec. 21 during the 17th annual Road
Home fundraiser.
Supported by Simmons Media and
Bonneville Communications, the annual
fundraiser brings two local competitors
together for two days each year, broad-
casting all of their shows live from the
shelter. Popular radio personalities
compete with each other to encourage
listeners to donate money and in-kind
items such as hats, gloves, blankets and
coats.
It was a lot of fun, youth coun-
cilmember Stephen Walker said. It
was a good experience to help other
people.
Holladay City events coordina-
tor Michele Bohling said the donations
dropped off to the city and to the local
SportsClips were mostly new items.
Donations this year are way up
from last year, Bohling said. I think it
is almost twice the amount.
Mount Olympus Senior Center vol-
unteers and the citys knitting group put
their efforts toward donating this year.
Members knitted enough hats, scarves
and mittens to fll two cars. Items were
donated to The Road Homes Candy
Cane Corner, a program that collects
new items for homeless individuals and

sues before the upcoming legislative ses-
sion which begins on Jan. 23.

Business Spotlights
Brighton High students raise funds for school in Mexico
By Sara Weikel
Thanks to students at Brighton High
School, some students in Mexico now have
a school building of their own.
Led by student body offcers, Brigh-
ton raised $35,000 between the beginning
of November and Christmas break. The
funds covered most of the construction
costs of a new secondary school building
for the small mountain town of Nichnam-
tic, in Mexicos southern state of Chiapas.
The school was built through the nonproft
Foundation Escalera.
Since Mexican law only requires
children to complete nine years of school,
many children in rural areas never have the
chance to attend high school. In addition
to that, the 2,000 residents of Nichnam-
tic speak a native Mexican language, not
Spanish. One of the greatest educational
needs of the towns 200 or so secondary
school-age young people is a place where
the students can learn Spanish, so they can
have a chance to integrate into the larger
Mexican society.
For most, they would be the frst in
their families to get an education beyond
sixth grade, Brighton Financial Literacy
teacher Jerry Christensen said.
Christensen has seen the towns need
frst-hand, as he and his family have visited
Nichnamtic before with Escalera. He and a
couple of Brighton students traveled there
again over Christmas break to lend a hand

Olympus Jr. High
students sweep
state radon poster
contest awards
By Sara Weikel
Olympus Jr. High School has an im-
pressive track record of wins in a wide va-
riety of state and national contests, but this
time theyve outdone themselves.
OJH students hold all three top spots in
the state level of the 2012 National Radon
Poster Contest. For their excellently drawn
posters warning people about the dangers
of radon poisoning, Anna Pinnock won frst
place in the contest, Maren Maxfeld took
second and Spencer Bickel came in thirrd.
I was just thrilled [that they won],
said Olympus Jr. science teacher JoAnn
Brown, who coordinated this and many
other competitions for the school. I knew
that they had done a really good job.
All three students were congratulated
by Gov. Gary Herbert in a ceremony at the
state capitol on Jan. 3.
The Utah Department of Environmen-
tal Qualitys Radiation Control Division
holds the Radon Poster Contest for the
state annually to raise awareness about ra-
don. Ninety students statewide participated
this year.
Radon is the second leading cause of
lung cancer in the United States, causing
an estimated 22,000 deaths a year, Radia-
tion Control Division Radon Program Co-
ordinator Christine Keyser said in a press
release. The best time to test for radon is
during the winter months when your home
is closed and radon levels are likely to build
to their highest concentrations.
Radon is a radioactive gas that seeps
into homes through cracks in foors, Brown

in the actual construction; not specifcally
representing Brighton, just there because
they wanted to help.
Nichnamtics residents were so
thrilled to be getting a new school building
that they cleared the construction site and
poured the foundation themselves before
Brighton was even fnished fundraising,
Christensen said. The rest of the construc-
tion was also completed quickly, and the
six-room school was open for classes this
month.
Brightons SBOs chose to contribute
to the Foundation Escalera out of several
organizations that pitched projects to them,
because they saw that this project would
make a big difference to kids their own age
who have been marginalized by the society
they live in, Christensen said.
In Spanish, escalera means ladder,
and the name is a symbol of our desire
to help lift the young out of the debili-
tating and vicious cycle of ignorance
and poverty, according to the founda-
tions website.
The Foundation Escalera was
started by the Garbett family, owners of
Garbett Homes, whose own children are
Brighton alumni.
To raise the funds for the Nichnam-
tic school, Brightons current students
started out with an awareness campaign
before Thanksgiving. Classes took turns

der a tarp to simulate the conditions

Business Spotlights By Mary Kaelin
A challenging preseason lineup
against 5A teams has helped give the
Olympus boys basketball team the ex-
perience they need.
We are a very inexperienced
team, coach Matt Barnes said. We
have some new guys, some new faces
and we are just fguring things out. We
are hitting a 37 percent shooting aver-
age and [making] 17-18 turnovers per
game. We can defnitely get better.
The Titans had a close 53-50 win
over Cottonwood Nov. 29 to open the
season, with senior Will Cannon scor-
ing the game high of 20 points with 14
rebounds and two assists. The win was
followed by a 52-37 loss to Woods Cross
Dec. 2, where the Titans trailed by only
three points at the half, but struggled in
the second half.
Olympus also lost a tough 49-42
home opener to Alta Dec. 6. The Titans
led at the half, but again were unable to
stay strong enough in the second half to
pull out a win. Senior Jackson Coleman
led Olympus in scoring, with 15 points,
two 3-pointers, eight rebounds, three
assists and three steals reported by the
coaching staff. Parker Rawlings con-
tributed 10 points and six rebounds to
the effort.
The Titans also lost a close 41-38
to Highland Dec. 13, but beat Bingham
52-45 Dec. 16.
Its a learning process, Barnes
said. Were trying to keep things in per-
spective, were working, staying posi-
tive. Were just trying to get ready for
league [regular season] play in January.
Seniors for this years team are

Pace, Nick Barney, Jake Bengtzen and
Nate Breivik. Sophomore Connor Haller is
starting at point guard for the team, with
juniors Jaren Jones at forward and Coulson
Hardy at guard.
We are in the process of mixing and
matching those 10 starters, trying to fnd
the best combination, Barnes said. The
kids are learning, growing up. Theyre
great kids, they work hard. Were hoping
for success.
Olympus played in the Riverton Win-
ter Invitational, defeating Fremont 55-43
Dec. 20 and losing a close 48-45 to Riv-
erton Dec. 21. The Titans hosted Bountiful
Dec. 30 and Davis Jan. 3 after our press
deadline.
The Titans end their preseason against
Taylorsville Jan. 6 and Box Elder Jan. 10,
and then move into the regular season
against Westlake Jan. 20, Herriman Jan. 24
and Skyline Jan. 27.
Viking Showcase set at
Bonneville Junior High
The doors at Bonneville Junior High
School will be opened for parents and stu-
dents on Wednesday, Jan. 25, from 6-8 p.m.
for the schools annual Viking Showcase.
The Viking Showcase is a unique
event at Bonneville and the one time of

to show off what makes it unique. Whether
it is walking on a bed of nails in the science

Viking Showcase is a great opportu-
nity for Bonneville Junior High students
to show their performing talents as well as
their academic success to their family and
friends, said principal Karl Moody.
The event kicks off at 6 p.m. in the
auditorium with a short concert from the
orchestra and choir, as well as a video pre-
sentation of events already held this year.
After that, parents and students are free to
explore the different offerings available
throughout the school.

current Bonneville students, parents and

the need from last year to this year has
greatly increased.
We have defnitely seen the need
grow particularly in families, Eggert
said. At our overfow shelter, our sea-

Scoring woes plague Bengal girls
By Anthony Cusumano
It seems simple enough put
the ball in the basket to score points.
However, as Brighton Highs girls
basketball team has seen, some-
times it isnt quite that easy.
Scoring has both helped and
hurt the Bengals through the pre-
season, evidenced by their 4-4
record. Brighton is averaging just
37 points per game and allowing
opponents 41. Moreover, the Ben-
gals have averaged 44 points per
game in their four wins and just
31 points in their four losses.
Brighton opened the season
with a 40-37 loss to Davis and re-
bounded with consecutive victories
over Riverton (48-46) and Pleasant
Grove (40-33). The Bengals lost to
Bingham (55-34) and Skyline (37-
20) before defeating Viewmont
(45-26) and Mountain View (42-
38). Most recently, Brighton lost
to Weber 55-32 before taking time
off for the holidays.
Alyssa Hirschi, Kelcie Doug-
las and Maddy Chin each scored
eight points in the loss to Davis.
Douglas made a pair of 3-pointers,
as did Ali Hahn, who scored seven
points. Amanda Jensen added four
points for Brighton, which led 25-
24 at halftime but was outscored
16-12 in the second half.
Hahn made four 3-pointers
and fnished with 18 points in the
victory over Riverton. Chin scored
13 points and Ashley Cruz made
three 3-pointers and had 11 points,
as Brighton led 29-24 at halftime.
Chin posted 12 points and
Hahn made a pair of threes and
had 11 points against Pleasant
Grove. Lindsey Johnson scored

nine points and Cruz four, as
the Bengals led 17-16 at half-
time before the Vikings pulled
ahead 26-22 after three quarters.
Brighton used an 18-7 fourth
quarter to prevail.
The Bengals had trouble
keeping up with Bingham in
their meeting, seeing a fve-
point halftime defcit swell to
17 (40-23) after three quarters.
Chin had 14 points, Hahn 10
and Johnson six.
Brighton simply couldnt
score against Skyline, trailing
20-13 at halftime and manag-
ing only seven points the entire
second half. Douglas had nine
points and Chin and Johnson
four apiece. Skylines Miquelle
Askew singlehandedly outscored
the Bengals with 21 points.
Hirschi tallied nine points and
Douglas (two 3-pointers) and Chin
each had eight points in the win
over Viewmont. Hahn and John-
son scored seven points apiece,
as Brighton led 24-14 at halftime
and extended the lead slightly after
three quarters, 36-22.
Johnson erupted for 17
points and three 3-pointers in the
win over Mountain View. Doug-
las made two 3-pointers and had
eight points, Hahn and Chin each
had six points and McCall Chris-
tensen four. Mountain View led
22-21 at halftime before Brigh-
ton rallied to take a 33-32 lead
into the fourth quarter.
Scoring issues arose against
Weber, as the Bengals trailed 25-
12 at halftime and 44-21 after
three quarters. Hahn scored nine
points and Douglas and Adhieu
Irok each had four points.
Chin and Hahn are leading
the Bengals in scoring thus far
at nine points per game. John-
son averages six points, Douglas
fve points and Cruz and Hirschi
three apiece.

Injuries continue to plague
the Olympus girls basketball team,
which is now down to 19 or 20
healthy players out of an original
24 at the start of the season. The
result? A 3-4 record in the pre-
season played before the Christ-
mas break, and a tough challenge
for head coach Kael Ashton.
Were not where I thought
wed be, he said. Were not 100
percent and were still battling
injuries. Its taken quite a toll on
us, trying to move players around
and try out different combinations
of positions.
The Titans opened their pre-
season with a pair of losses, 54-38
to Maple Mountain Nov. 22 and a
close 51-46 loss to Woods Cross
Nov. 29. The team pulled out an
even closer 46-43 win over East
Dec. 2, followed by a 44-27 loss
to Cyprus Dec. 6.
Olympus jumped out to an
early start against Box Elder on
Dec. 9, and kept the lead through-
out the game to win 57-44. Sopho-
more Rachel VanderToolen led the
Titans in scoring with 22 points
for the game. The Titans then
completely dominated Highland
in a 65-24 victory Dec. 13. Se-
nior Kenzie Droubay was the high
scorer with 19 points, followed by
VanderToolen at 15 points with
two 3-pointers for the Titans.
Droubay contributed 12
points against Bountiful Dec.
16, but it wasnt enough to save
Olympus from a 51-32 loss to the
Braves. The Titans also fell to
Bonneville 45-28 Dec. 20.
The girls are working hard,
were getting there, Ashton said.
They are making strides and
improvements. Kenzie Doubet
is playing well for us. She had a
double double [achieved double
digit scores in both points scored

Having graduated its top three scor-
ers from last season and with a new coach,
the prospects for Brighton Highs boys
basketball team didnt appear promising.
The Bengals didnt have to look far
to fnd someone to take the reins.
Brandon Miller, whose brother,
Corbin, starred for Brighton, has aver-
aged 25 points per game and made 22
3-pointers through the Bengals frst six
games this season (3-3). Corbin Miller,
who averaged 19 points per game last
season, is now playing at Harvard Uni-
versity. Brandon Miller hasnt scored
fewer than 17 points in any game and
has a season-high of 29 against Layton.
Brighton defeated West (67-37) and
Lehi (64-56) in its frst two games before
losing to Riverton 82-78. The Bengals de-
feated Layton 78-54 and lost to American
Fork (73-68) and Bingham (78-69). Brigh-
ton was scheduled to participate in the
annual Gillette Tournament in Wyoming
after Christmas, followed by two more pre-
season games before opening region play.
Miller was leading 5A in scoring av-
erage and 3-pointers per game and was
third in the state in both categories as of
our press deadline. Brighton was averag-
ing 71 points per game and allowing 63.
Miller made three 3-pointers and
had 17 points in the win over West. Zach
Wertz added a pair of threes and fnished
with 16 points, while Travis Devashray-
ee added 12 points, Jon Hicken had 10
points and six rebounds, and Chris Eix-
enberger had fve rebounds. Brighton
led 27-18 at halftime and extended the
lead to 48-25 after three quarters by out-
scoring West 21-7 in the third.
Brighton used a 21-4 run in the
second half to overcome Lehi. Miller
made four 3-pointers and had 26 points,
Bengals ring away behind Miller
Devashrayee had 14 points, eight rebounds
and fve assists, Bryce Callahan had eight
points, and Wertz totaled seven points, six
assists and four steals. The game was knot-
ted 28-all before Lehi slipped ahead 43-42
going into the fourth quarter. Devashrayees
baseline 3-pointer helped seal the win.
Devashrayee had 26 points and 10 re-
bounds to pace the Bengals against River-
ton. Miller made three 3-pointers and had
24 points, Callahan had 12 points, Eixen-
berger had nine points and seven rebounds,
and Wertz had four points and four assists.
Riverton led 42-32 at halftime.
The Bengals roared back with the vic-
tory over Layton. Miller scored 20 of his
29 points in the frst half and made four
3-pointers with fve assists. Eixenberger
had 12 points and 11 rebounds, Hicken
scored nine points, Devashrayee had eight
points, six rebounds and four points, Zach
Bernardo had nine points, and Wertz had
13 points and fve assists. Brighton led 46-
32 at halftime and 65-44 into the fourth.
Miller kept up his scoring with 28
points and four 3-pointers against American
Fork. Callahan had 17 points, Devashray-
ee had eight points, and Eixenberger and
Hicken six points apiece. The Bengals led
34-33 at halftime, but the Cavemen pulled
ahead 52-48 going into the fourth quarter.
Miller matched his production against
Bingham with 28 points and four 3-point-
ers, while Devashrayee had 13 points,
Callahan and Wertz each had eight and
Eixenberger seven. Bingham led 43-31 at
halftime before Brighton rallied to make
it 56-55 after three quarters. The Miners
added the fnishing touches in the fourth
by outscoring the Bengals 22-14.
Although Miller garners the most at-
tention, Brightons supporting cast has done
very well. Devashrayee averages 14 points

Brighton High swimming standout
Long Gutierrez didnt start posting his fast-
est times until early-to-mid November due
to injury, but it hasnt taken him long to get
back in top form.
Gutierrez, who broke bones in both el-
bows during the summer, appears to be ful-
ly recovered in leading Brightons boys in
seven of eight individual events as of Dec.
18. After concentrating on shorter distance
events earlier in the season, Gutierrez has
resumed his place among the state leaders.

second), 100 butterfy (54.03, second), 200
free (1:48.76, second), 100 breaststroke
(1:02.15, third), 50 free (21.98, third) and
200 individual medley (2:02.14, fourth).
Trent Evans had the only other individual
fast time for Brightons boys, leading the
500 free in 5:00.16 (sixth in state).
Meanwhile, several other Bengals
were ranked within the top 20 in the state.
Tanner Wiest was ffth in the 100 fy
(54.73), ninth in the 100 free (50.39) and 10th
in the 50 free (22.73) and Evans was seventh
in the 200 IM (2:03.73), 11th in the 100 breast,
17th in the 200 free and 19th in the 100 fy.
Kyle Spicer was ninth in the 500 free (5:04.42)
and 13th in the 100 fy and 200 free.
Ryan Brinkerhoff was ffth in the 100
breast (1:03.15), while Connor Yost was
17th in the 100 free and 19th in the 50 free
and Hunter ONeal was 15th in the 100 fy
and 19th in the 50 free. Carson Malen was
15th in the 500 free, Aryan Farahani was
17th in the 100 breast, Trick Graf was 19th
in the 500 free, and Sam Peters was 19th in
the 100 back for the Bengals.

End of Year Report
By Randy Fitts, City Manager & Clarence Kemp, City Engineer
2011 was once again a fnan-
cially challenging year for the City.
Of course, we are not able to address
all of the needed projects given the
limited budgets and dif cult fnan-
cial environment. Nevertheless, the
City was again able to stretch scarce
tax dollars through favorable bid
pricing and leveraging various fund-
ing sources. There have been no re-
ductions in public safety including
Police and Fire Department services.
Kudos to our city staf for carrying
much of the additional load.
On the positive side, building
permits, business licenses, and sales
tax revenues appear to be trending
upward. We are cautiously optimis-
tic for the coming year. A few things
that were accomplished over the
past year include:
Village Project: The federally-
funded road and plaza construction
was completed in the Holladay Vil-
lage ahead of the holiday season. A
key part of the project is the plaza
area that will serve as a public gath-
ering place and be the focal point of
our downtown commercial develop-
ment. We are grateful to our busi-
ness community and our residents
for your patience during this UDOT
managed project.
City Park Restrooms: Design
has been completed on restroom fa-
cilities to serve the ball felds behind
City Hall. Construction should com-
mence in early 2012.
Flood Control: The City faced
signifcant fooding potential during
the spring run-of of this year. We are
pleased to report that through the
cooperative eforts of our residents,
Salt Lake County, and our staf, seri-
ous fooding problems were largely
avoided.
Holladay was again faced with
serious fooding problems associ-
ated with two 100-year storm events
that occurred late last summer. These
storms revealed multiple defciencies
in our storm drain systems that have
largely been addressed. We were
also able to address several serious
historic fooding problems inher-
ited by the city on Kings Row, Karen
Street, Lakewood, and other areas.
We understand that there are other
food-related projects that are badly
needed that were not in the budget.
We encourage you to talk to our City
Engineer, Mr. Clarence Kemp (801-
230-3682) or Mr. Randy Fitts (801-
272-9450) to discuss you particular
fooding concerns.
School Reconstruction Projects:
The City has worked closely with
Granite School District during the re-
construction of Oakwood Elementary
School and Olympus High School to
minimize disruption to our residents
and to better insure that these facili-
ties are appropriate for our neighbor-
hoods. We appreciate the Districts
willingness to involve the City early
in this projects and their cooperative
approach. We are excited about the
long-term commitment and cultural
benefts these investments represent
in our community.
We look forward to a great 2012!
In its 6th annual tradition the Holladay City Youth
Council delivered donations to to The Road Home shelter
on December 21. They were able to participate in radio in-
terviews and help sort donations in the warehouse. Three
members of the Youth Council enjoyed sorting donations
so much that they went down the next day on their own
time to sort donations again with their families. This has
become such a great and successful service project for the
Holladay City Youth Council that they hope to expand it to
involve more businesses and residence next year.
The Holladay Youth Council extends gratitude to ev-
eryone who participated in The Road Home/Candy Cane
Store project during the 2011 holiday season. Donors in-
clude: the Holladay City Staf, the Holladay Chamber of
Commerce, Mount Olympus Senior Citizen Center, the
Holladay Knitting Group, SportsClips, Forsgren Associates,
and many Holladay residents and friends

The City Council also approved
another settlement agreement
that resolved various legal is-
sues to clear the way for the
construction of a new 4 story,
121-room business hotel on the SE corner
of 6200 S. and 3000 E. A ski/golf shop and
restaurants will also be built on the site. Salt
Lake County approved a no-interest loan to
help address food control issues on the prop-
erty (Heughs Canyon Creek runs through the
site) to be repaid with a portion of Holladays
transient-room tax and sales tax generated by
the project. Since this property was formerly
owned by the Federal government, new prop-
erty tax revenues will fow from the project to
the City, County and Granite School District as
a result of this development.
The City Council also refnanced
and extended the existing bond
that was issued for the purchase
and remodeling of the old Hol-
laday Elementary school (now
City Hall) at very favorable interest rates to
fund the construction of a new fre station on
the property across the street from Olympus Jr.
High. The existing fre station located on Holla-
day Boulevard has been declared structurally
unsafe and must be replaced. (The fre fght-
ers are not even allowed to live in the building,
but are staying in trailers located in the rear.)
Following the completion of construction, the
existing fre station will be demolished and
that property will be used to expand the park
space behind City Hall.
2012 will be an exciting year for Holladay.
Construction on the Village Center project, the
hotel, and the new fre station are all expected
to begin next spring.
Big Finish to 2011
By Council Members Lynn Pace and Jim Palmer
With little fanfare, the City Council voted
to approve three milestone items at the end
of 2011.
The frst was the fnal approval
of the development agree-
ment for the redevelopment
of the Holladay Village Center
(the old Video Verns site). This
development agreement will allow for the
construction of a 42,000 square foot com-
mercial of ce over retail two-story project
adjacent to the recently-completed public
plaza. This project will now go before the De-
sign Review Board and Planning Commission
for fnal site plan approval.
As part of that project, the Council also
approved a settlement agreement with Cow-
boy Partners and the other entities associated
with the original Village Center Plan. Cowboy
was awarded the right to develop the prop-
erty in response to a competitive Request
for Proposals issued by Holladay in 2005.
Cowboy and the City also signed a Real Es-
tate Purchase Contract and the City granted
Final Site Plan approval to Cowboy earlier this
year. After receiving a second proposal from
the Rockworth/Melby Group, the City asked if
Cowboy would be willing to relinquish their
development rights and sell their interest in
the Olympus Pharmacy site. To their credit,
Cowboy agreed to do so in exchange for be-
ing reimbursed for their out-of-pocket costs.
The Melby Group agreed to split the $237,000
reimbursement cost with the City. Cowboy
also agreed not to ask for reimbursement of
their internal costs incurred over the last sev-
eral years. The City commends the individu-
als at Cowboy Partners and thanks them for
their professionalism.

Highland Drive. After a lengthy period of study and
discussion, the City is ready to consider adoption of a
new Plan for this very important street. A hearing will
be held at the City Council meeting on January 19 at
6:00 p.m. to take public input and answer any ques-
tions about the new Plan.
The Plan envisions that over a period of time, a
tradition of having the policy of mostly single family
homes on Highland will eventually be phased out and
replaced with more small retail shops, of ces, restau-
rants (like the new Caf Madrid), and a more attached
townhome type development. Of course, this change
will not occur overnight and it will take time for the
look and feel of Highland to signifcantly change into
something diferent than what is there now. Howev-
er, it is obvious that heavy traf c fows along the road
in conjunction with a long standing pattern of insti-
tutional uses such as schools, churches, of ces and
clinics, demonstrate that Highland Drive is no longer
ideal for mostly single family homes, which over the
course of time have become less desirable for new
development.
The natural evolution of land use change on High-
land is already occurring and implementation of the
Plan will mostly recognize and authorize the direc-
tion the street is already going. How buildings look,
where they will be placed and how they relate to the
homes and other buildings surrounding it is the focus
of this new plan. In addition, the Plan calls for High-
land to become safer for both pedestrians and autos
by calling for a complete street approach to proper
roadway development and operation. The number of
lanes is not proposed to change in the Plan.

End of Year Report
By Randy Fitts, City Manager & Clarence Kemp, City Engineer
2011 was once again a fnan-
cially challenging year for the City.
Of course, we are not able to address
all of the needed projects given the
limited budgets and dif cult fnan-
cial environment. Nevertheless, the
City was again able to stretch scarce
tax dollars through favorable bid
pricing and leveraging various fund-
ing sources. There have been no re-
ductions in public safety including
Police and Fire Department services.
Kudos to our city staf for carrying
much of the additional load.
On the positive side, building
permits, business licenses, and sales
tax revenues appear to be trending
upward. We are cautiously optimis-
tic for the coming year. A few things
that were accomplished over the
past year include:
Village Project: The federally-
funded road and plaza construction
was completed in the Holladay Vil-
lage ahead of the holiday season. A
key part of the project is the plaza
area that will serve as a public gath-
ering place and be the focal point of
our downtown commercial develop-
ment. We are grateful to our busi-
ness community and our residents
for your patience during this UDOT
managed project.
City Park Restrooms: Design
has been completed on restroom fa-
cilities to serve the ball felds behind
City Hall. Construction should com-
mence in early 2012.
Flood Control: The City faced
signifcant fooding potential during
the spring run-of of this year. We are
pleased to report that through the
cooperative eforts of our residents,
Salt Lake County, and our staf, seri-
ous fooding problems were largely
avoided.
Holladay was again faced with
serious fooding problems associ-
ated with two 100-year storm events
that occurred late last summer. These
storms revealed multiple defciencies
in our storm drain systems that have
largely been addressed. We were
also able to address several serious
historic fooding problems inher-
ited by the city on Kings Row, Karen
Street, Lakewood, and other areas.
We understand that there are other
food-related projects that are badly
needed that were not in the budget.
We encourage you to talk to our City
Engineer, Mr. Clarence Kemp (801-
230-3682) or Mr. Randy Fitts (801-
272-9450) to discuss you particular
fooding concerns.
School Reconstruction Projects:
The City has worked closely with
Granite School District during the re-
construction of Oakwood Elementary
School and Olympus High School to
minimize disruption to our residents
and to better insure that these facili-
ties are appropriate for our neighbor-
hoods. We appreciate the Districts
willingness to involve the City early
in this projects and their cooperative
approach. We are excited about the
long-term commitment and cultural
benefts these investments represent
in our community.
We look forward to a great 2012!
In its 6th annual tradition the Holladay City Youth
Council delivered donations to to The Road Home shelter
on December 21. They were able to participate in radio in-
terviews and help sort donations in the warehouse. Three
members of the Youth Council enjoyed sorting donations
so much that they went down the next day on their own
time to sort donations again with their families. This has
become such a great and successful service project for the
Holladay City Youth Council that they hope to expand it to
involve more businesses and residence next year.
The Holladay Youth Council extends gratitude to ev-
eryone who participated in The Road Home/Candy Cane
Store project during the 2011 holiday season. Donors in-
clude: the Holladay City Staf, the Holladay Chamber of
Commerce, Mount Olympus Senior Citizen Center, the
Holladay Knitting Group, SportsClips, Forsgren Associates,
and many Holladay residents and friends

The City Council also approved
another settlement agreement
that resolved various legal is-
sues to clear the way for the
construction of a new 4 story,
121-room business hotel on the SE corner
of 6200 S. and 3000 E. A ski/golf shop and
restaurants will also be built on the site. Salt
Lake County approved a no-interest loan to
help address food control issues on the prop-
erty (Heughs Canyon Creek runs through the
site) to be repaid with a portion of Holladays
transient-room tax and sales tax generated by
the project. Since this property was formerly
owned by the Federal government, new prop-
erty tax revenues will fow from the project to
the City, County and Granite School District as
a result of this development.
The City Council also refnanced
and extended the existing bond
that was issued for the purchase
and remodeling of the old Hol-
laday Elementary school (now
City Hall) at very favorable interest rates to
fund the construction of a new fre station on
the property across the street from Olympus Jr.
High. The existing fre station located on Holla-
day Boulevard has been declared structurally
unsafe and must be replaced. (The fre fght-
ers are not even allowed to live in the building,
but are staying in trailers located in the rear.)
Following the completion of construction, the
existing fre station will be demolished and
that property will be used to expand the park
space behind City Hall.
2012 will be an exciting year for Holladay.
Construction on the Village Center project, the
hotel, and the new fre station are all expected
to begin next spring.
Big Finish to 2011
By Council Members Lynn Pace and Jim Palmer
With little fanfare, the City Council voted
to approve three milestone items at the end
of 2011.
The frst was the fnal approval
of the development agree-
ment for the redevelopment
of the Holladay Village Center
(the old Video Verns site). This
development agreement will allow for the
construction of a 42,000 square foot com-
mercial of ce over retail two-story project
adjacent to the recently-completed public
plaza. This project will now go before the De-
sign Review Board and Planning Commission
for fnal site plan approval.
As part of that project, the Council also
approved a settlement agreement with Cow-
boy Partners and the other entities associated
with the original Village Center Plan. Cowboy
was awarded the right to develop the prop-
erty in response to a competitive Request
for Proposals issued by Holladay in 2005.
Cowboy and the City also signed a Real Es-
tate Purchase Contract and the City granted
Final Site Plan approval to Cowboy earlier this
year. After receiving a second proposal from
the Rockworth/Melby Group, the City asked if
Cowboy would be willing to relinquish their
development rights and sell their interest in
the Olympus Pharmacy site. To their credit,
Cowboy agreed to do so in exchange for be-
ing reimbursed for their out-of-pocket costs.
The Melby Group agreed to split the $237,000
reimbursement cost with the City. Cowboy
also agreed not to ask for reimbursement of
their internal costs incurred over the last sev-
eral years. The City commends the individu-
als at Cowboy Partners and thanks them for
their professionalism.

I woke up this morning with no desire to get out of bed.
Outside, its cold, gray and windy. Inside, theres dirty dishes
and laundry, a daughter with the sniffes and a husband who
hasnt golfed in weeks. (He gets a little cranky if he cant get
his game on.) Even the dog seems lazier than usual.
I think were all suffering from the Post-Christmas
Blues. Its hard to accept that theres no reason for anyone
to bring me a box of chocolate-covered cherries for at least
six more weeks. (And even then, its not a guarantee.)
There are no presents to wrap. I have nothing to shop
for and no money to shop with. No one is singing an off-
key version of Silver Bells or wishing me a Happy
New Year. I havent received any festive January mail-
-only bills from last months gift frenzy. And the cold
temperatures are beginning to get on my nerves. (What
do I mean beginning?!)
Im tired of wearing four layers of clothing just to
get the newspaper. My feet are in a constant state of ice.
My fngers are long, blue icicles that make it very diff-
cult to pick my nose. The sky varies between submarine
gray and dingy white, and the suns warmth has gone
into retirement. Oh, the suns still thereshining down
on this cold world. But I guess he hasnt paid his heating
bill because those rays are FRIGID!
My mood is as dark as the inversion hanging over
my home. I tell myself its all in my mind, that I just need
to cheer up. I try to think happy thoughts, but dark ideas
keep creeping back into my head. January is the month
when I spend a lot of time planning the perfect murder.
Ive read enough Agatha Christie novels to create quite
the crime scene.
Something must be done.
We need to create a holiday for January!
Im sure you know its National Oatmeal, Soup and
Hot Tea Month. Duh. And although Jan. 13 is Interna-
tional Skeptics Day (but I dont believe it), the 20th is
Penguin Awareness Day and the 24th is Beer Can Ap-
preciation Day, these arent really embraceable holidays:
except maybe National Chocolate Cake Day on Jan. 27.
I dont need anything extravagant; just a small ex-
cuse to get together with family/friends and laugh with
each other. (Or laugh at each other.)
We have Christmas in July, so why not summer in
January? Pink lemonade could be the months required
beverage, and we could watch old Beach Blanket Bingo
movies and listen to Beach Boys music. (Although both
are irritatingly nerve-wracking.)
I could crank the heat up to 70 degrees, a real treat in
our house, and we could lounge around in our swimming
suits and hula skirts. Maybe even head to the local indoor
pool for some frolicking. How often do you take your
kids swimming in the winter? (The answer is NEVER.
Have you BEEN outside? Its cold!)
Perhaps I could persuade my husband to roll out the
grill to cook up some hot dogs and hamburgers, and in-
vite people over for a winter barbecue.
So I hereby designate January as Summer in Win-
ter. Lets celebrate appropriately. Sunglasses and tropi-
cal shirts will be the order of the day. Im all for calling
Hallmark to have them create greeting cards we could
send to our cold-weather friends. That company is ALL
about promoting holidays.
Im beginning to feel sunnier already.

immediate symptoms, so people who have
it in their homes seldom realize it. Utahns
are at high to moderate risk for radon poi-
soning, depending on the specifc areas
they live in, she said.
It could be in your own basement,
eighth grader Anna Pinnock said.
Despite the signifcant risk, Utah is
one of only six states that does not require
a newly-purchased house to be tested for
radon, Brown said.
However, the test is cheap and easy for
home owners to do themselves. Test kits are
available for $6 at radon.ut.gov or by calling
1-800- 324-5928, ext. 21 or 22. Be sure to
Nichnamtics students were under
without a school building. The day was
damp and cold, and the tarp too small
for an entire class to ft underneath.
The students were shocked,
Christensen said. They came away with
mention on the phone that you are a Utah
resident so you can get the discount price.
The kit is simply a flter encased in a small
box that can be hung in a basement. The fl-
ter traps radon particles present in the base-
ment, and the entire box can be sent to a lab
to be tested for the trapped radon.
Correcting a radon problem is nearly
as easy as testing for it. All it requires is
a radon abatement procedure, which is
really just a ventilation pipe with a fan to
help clear the basements contaminated air.
Most building contractors are familiar with
the procedure, and do-it-yourself videos
can be found online.
Its a really good thing to do because you
save yourself from that harm, Anna said.
Even though Anna received $300 for
her winning poster-making efforts, the best
reward she got was knowledge, she said.
Anna got her own house tested after study-
ing radons dangers to prepare for the con-
test, and now she can rest easy knowing
that she and her family are safe.

could improve some peoples lives.
The SBOs raised the funds by col-

Hearing is a vital sense used to inter-
act, communicate and connect with others.
But as time goes by, hearing can gradually
become impaired to the point where the
ability to converse is impeded. Once hear-
ing is damaged, many people withdraw so-
cially, not realizing there is a way to get
back this precious gift.

to stop by Audiology Associ-
ates (1377 East 3900 South,
Suite 201) for a free screening
to determine if hearing
loss has occurred. If you
have noticed that sounds
arent as clear, youre
asking people to repeat
themselves, people seem to mum-
ble or family members have expressed
concern about your hearing, it might be
time to stop in.
With the use of a video otoscope, Brent
can examine the ear to see if the hearing
loss could be caused by an obstruction in
the ear canal, or damage to the ear drum.
Then, an audiometric pure tone evaluation
will measure your hearing level at differ-
ent frequencies. Depending on the results,
a plan can be created to bring hearing back
into your life.
Many people think wearing a hear-
ing aid will target them as being old or dis-
abled, Brent says. But there are so many
devices to choose from that we can fnd
the perfect aid for someone who spends
most of their time at home, or for someone

Mountview Park from front page
Local fourth-grade students painted tiles that
will be used in the restrooms of the park.
colorful imagesincluding one depiction
of Mayor Kelvyn Cullimore Jr.
This is a fve-star park, Councilman
Mike Peterson said. Peterson anticipates
nominating the park for an outstanding new
park of the year award after its completion.
It would be well-deserved, Peterson
said. This is a very unique park because of
the collaboration [between city entities].
The city received by lease the former
Mountview Elementary School property
from Canyons School District for a dollar
a year. Cullimore said the park will have
the highest quality of amenities because
the city did not have to buy the land.
Although the park isnt offcially com-
pleted yet, the sledding hill is open now.
Pending snowfall, residents can enjoy the
park throughout this winter.

certifed arborists, Holladay City Planner
John Teerlink said. We would like them
to participate and maybe hold educational
tree seminars in the future.
Still looking for interested volunteers,
Teerlink said ideally they would like to get
residents that are involved in horticulture
and landscape architecture that would like
to have a voice in recommending projects
and tree plantings.
In the past, this board has not been
very active, but with more recent involve-
ment we plan on meeting monthly, Teer-
link said. Education will be the main
thing. We have a lot of old growth trees in
this area, and we want to get out as much
education about pruning these trees before
they become a problem.
Residents interested in participating
with the tree board should contact Teerlink
directly at jteerlink@cityofholladay.com.

the Titans will plunge into their regular sea-

The frst half of region play will conclude for
Olympus by traveling to Skyline Jan. 27.
Weve played some of the better 4A
teams in preseason, Ashton said. Its
shown us what we need to work on. Id
rather have the injuries now than in Janu-

can pull it all together.

Among the renovations at the Cottonwood Heights Recreation Center is a higher ceiling
for the indoor pool, one which allows more natural light to make the area brighter.
Thanks to a bond passed in June
2010, funds were received to update
parts of the building. Construction be-
gan in May 2011 and was completed in
December.
What we really tried to do is maxi-
mize the money, to really get the most
we could out of the improvements,
said Mike Peterson, Director at Cotton-
wood Heights Recreation Center.
Perhaps the biggest difference is
the indoor pool area. The old roof was
taken off and replaced with a brand new
one, seven feet higher than the origi-
nal. Not only did this provide the facil-
ity with safe structural improvements,
it allowed more natural light into the
pool, creating a much brighter swim-
ming space. Original windows near the
pool were replaced with double-paned
insulated windows and a row of smaller
windows was added at top near the new
roof line.
Another noticeable difference can
be seen as soon as one walks into the
center. A new east entrance was created
with a spacious hallway for patron use.
The previous entry way located near the
outdoor pool will be incorporated into a
new deck area for outdoor swimmers.
CH Rec Center from front page
Other updates include enclosed rac-
quetball courts along the new hallway, and
slight modifcations to the spin cycling and
aerobics rooms.
Were thrilled to have it done, to get
the swimmers back in the building and to
extend the life of the pool for another three
decades. We want to encourage residents
to come take a look at what weve done,
go on a tour to see whats new, Peterson
said.
In addition to the most recent updates,
the outdoor pool is now going through its
own renovation. It will reopen in May.
Knudsen Park from front page
Palmer said. This is the last open space to
be preserved in the city, and I am pleased
to see this move forward.
The only dissenting vote on the plan
was from councilmember Barry Topham,
who said the plan was a pie in the sky thing
for the city that has no fnancing for any such
park. Topham said Holladay City, that he
characterized in fnancial distress, should
use the space for additional restaurants or of-
fce buildings, to immediately start generat-
ing tax revenue and add three large homes on
the lots west of Holladay Boulevard.
This is an ideal place for commercial
development located right by an off-ramp
of I-215, Topham said. For these rea-
sons, I dont think this plan in appropriate
for the city. The park will take millions to
develop, and money each year to maintain,
and I dont think there will be signifcant
use of it.

during the chambers holiday luncheon held at Holladay City Hall.
The Olympus High Voice Ensemble performed during the
chambers holiday luncheon held at Holladay City Hall.
The Holladay Chamber of Commerce
enjoyed a great year in 2011, and is now
looking forward to more growth, involve-
ment and interaction in 2012. With more
businesses opening in Holladay, the crite-
rium on the Fourth of July and the Village
Center Project getting under way, the cham-
ber will be more visible than ever before.
Thanks to those who attended the
chambers holiday luncheon in December.
There was a good turnout from chamber
members and lots of prizes donated by Par-
rys Offce Supplies, Zions Bank, The Val-
ley Journals, SportClips, Caf Madrid and
several others. The dinner was catered by
Visconti House, with dessert provided by
So Cupcake and Daniels Fine Chocolates.
The Olympus High Voice Ensemble
entertained luncheon attendees with their
fun versions of holiday songs, and cham-
Gearing up for a new year
ber members brought dozens of donations
for The Road Home.
We received socks, gloves, hoodies,
hats and lots of items from our members,
Holladay Chamber Executive Director Peri
Kinder said. There are many people who
will beneft from these gifts.
During the luncheon, the 2011 Holla-
day Chamber Business of the Year award
was presented to Jakob Marketing Partners.
Julie Jakob, and her team, supported the
chamber, and local businesses, throughout
the year. Also, Dr. Eric Rigby was given
the 2011 Holladay Hero Award for his
life-saving efforts with a young Holladay
resident.
In January, Gina Crezee from Rio
Tinto will attend the luncheon on Tuesday,
Jan. 10, to discuss the companys involve-
ment with the community, and its sustain-
ability programs. Shell provide advice for
members who need some fresh ideas in
these areas.
The Holladay business community
can really gain from these topics, especially
since the residents are advocates for green
programs and neighborhood involvement,
Kinder said.
The Holladay Chamber wants to wel-
come two new members: Dan Smith, own-
er of Daniels Fine Chocolates, and Todd
Madsen, manager at Mountain American
Credit Union. Also, thank to Pyxis Execu-
tive Suites for renewing their membership
with the chamber. For information about
joining, or renewing a chamber member-
ship, visit www.holladaychamber.org.
Were hoping to become more involved
with our chamber members during 2012 by
providing them support, networking oppor-
tunities and information, Kinder said. We
are always looking for feedback and input.
