• New Business –Paulina Flint indicated that the issue of traffic calming in the area needs to be looked and the information was handed out at the meeting for everyone to review. Kay Dickerson discussed the 7th East road project and the work is a little behind the schedule because of many issues but the contractor is moving out to have the road bed done on schedule. Some of the other areas may come later such as, sidewalk, curb and gutter, driveways, aprons etc. The big push will to complete the roadway and then work the other items. They are making every effort to finish by the end of this year.
• Candidates at Meeting-Jeff Hatch, County Auditor, reported on the Salt Lake County Auditor’s Department and indicated that the new computer program, BRASS, is now working on the budgets and the internal working of the departments. Information Services in Auditing Technology and Software and equipment is looking at proper protection for the programs. There is a great deal of interest in maintaining proper security risks within the department. They are looking at new programs to run on property taxes to make it more current and improve efficiency and accuracy. Financial Plans Systems is implementing a new system to be more efficient. Taylor Ayers, Senate Dist. 9, thanked everyone for being at the South East Township Days. He grew up just north of Bear Park and now lives just south of 10600 South. He is an attorney for criminal defense by trade. He believes in local government not large government. Steve Wrigley, Canyons School District 5. He indicated that of 16506 voters 12297 voted. In White City of 3500 voters only 514 vote on a regular basis. We have 28% of the votes but only 5% vote. Of the 3100 voters only 934 vote. Chances are the Alta View will not be closed this time around but we need to get more voters out to vote.
