Saratoga Splash ‘10 SS gets new rescue boat Thursday, July 1, 2010
www.thecrossroadsjournal.com
By Hanna Hopkins Staff Writer
After years of raising donations, the Saratoga Springs Fire Department purchased its first rescue boat. On May 15, 2010, a brand new Yamaha Exciter jet boat was delivered to the lake front city. "This is something we have been planning for the last two years," explains Fire Chief Tim Hay. "Now we can be a greater asset to the Utah State Park Rangers and Utah County Search and Rescue on emergencies, especially on the west side of the lake." The boat itself cost $6,500, with rescue equipment and mandatory boat accessories reaching $2,500. Most of the funding was provided by Wal-Mart. And, according to Hay, the boat will be housed at Station 2 which is located at 2015 South Redwood Road; strategically placing it in close proximity to all three marinas located within city limits. "It's great and it's about time," says City Councilman Brent Call. "It is perfect for this lake." The fire department is called to assist in water rescues an average of two to three times annually. And,
before getting its own boat, the department had to rely on the Utah State Parks or Utah County Fire and Rescue to assist with boaters or swimmers in need. "Utah Lake attracts many skiers, wake boarders, fisherman, duck hunters and other watercraft enthusiast," states Hays. "Accidents are going to happen." A Yamaha jet boat was purchased instead of a power or motorboat because it provides safety without the hazard of submersed moving propellers. Underwater propellers often catch on lake debris and vegetation or accidentally injure a rescuer or the rescued. After receiving the boat, all paid department staff and some part-time staff attended a class instructed by the Utah State Park Rangers in order to train and certify in water and boat rescues. They also took the boat operator's booklet exam. "All staff must pass off on practical skills and take the booklet exam," explains Hays. "This summer we will get 90 percent of our staff trained. And, we hope to later take more advanced boat courses offered by the State of Utah." Hays assured that the department will continue to train its staff "as opportunities present themselves."
Saratoga Springs city manager leaving By Rebecca Call Staff Writer
Saratoga Springs will soon bid farewell to long time city manager Ken Leetham. Leetham, who joined the city a decade ago, tendered his resignation at a City Council meeting on June 16. The City Council and Mayor Mia Love had been informed of his intention to seek other employment opportunities before his official resignation. Leetham will be joining the City of North Salt Lake as their community and economic development director.
Leetham gave the city a sixweek notice to find and hire his replacement. The job has already been posted to entice qualified individuals to apply. As part of his contract, Leetham was entitled to six months in pay if he left voluntarily, but has said that was too much and will take four months of compensation. He has been the Saratoga Springs city manager for nine years and worked for the city as a planning consultant for a couple of years prior. While city officials search for a replacement they are excited for the opportunities this change may bring. The changes in city
government and this new change in city administration may bring new people looking to Saratoga Springs for living, business and recreation. “It is a great time to live in Saratoga Springs”, Mayor Love expressed when talking about the changes. While the changes are exciting, the City Council realizes that Leetham had the unique role of bringing quite a bit of past knowledge into the decisions made within the city. Council member Cecil Tuley states, “The loss of Ken's historical knowledge of the past development decisions, agreements between
the city and land owners or developers, and his understanding of where the city has been going with its development is what will be missed most.” Saratoga Springs' job posting lists, “The successful candidate will be a talented manager and leader who understands all aspects of municipal government and has an appreciation of the challenges currently facing cities. He/she should be enthusiastic, driven, hard-working and approachable by citizens, staff and council. The ideal candidate should assist in establishing an atmosphere of trust, mutual
respect and cooperation. Qualified applicants should be able to organize and express ideas through excellent oral and written communication to a wide variety of audiences such as the City Council, community groups and other boards and committees. The selected candidate will be politically astute and demonstrate unquestionable integrity.” The complete job posting has been listed on the city's website (www.SaratogaSpringsCity.com) under Departments, Employment Opportunities or can be obtained through the city offices.

June 22, 2010 The policy session of the Eagle Mountain City Council was called to order by Mayor Jackson with all City Council members in attendance: Donna Burnham, Eric Cieslak, Ryan Ireland, John Painter, and Nathan Ochsenhirt. The consent agenda, consisting of the minutes of the June 8 regular City Council meeting, and a bond release into warranty for Jacob’s Well Plats B and C. The agenda was accepted and approved unanimously. Scheduled items Public hearing and ordinance adopting the final amendments to the fiscal year 2009-2010 budget. Utah State Code requires any final increases in the budget be adopted after a public hearing and prior to the fiscal year ending. The city’s budget is being amended to cover all anticipated expenditures through the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010. The amended budget should cover all eventualities so that the city will not be cited for budgetary noncompliance. A citizen addressed the council, asking what portion of the property taxes goes to the Fire Department. A motion was received and seconded, and unanimously approved. Public hearing and ordinance adopting the fiscal year 2010-2011 budget. The State Code requires that the City Council hold a public hearing on the proposed budget and that the budget be adopted by June 22. The tentative budget was accepted by the City Council on May 4, 2010. The City Council can move to adopt the final budget, after a public hearing, as proposed or with amendments. The final budget will be the document that governs the expenditures for the FY 2010-2011. Two residents spoke to the City Council during the public hearing: One asked about an ATV trail, and the second thanked the council for funds designated for the Arts Council. A motion to approve was received, seconded and unanimously approved. Resolution approving a Residential Net Metering Policy and Agreement. The proposed resolution adopts a policy to regulate the interconnection and metering of renewable energy generating facilities. Eagle Mountain City will offer net metering to their customers that generate electricity on the customer’s side of the meter, using renewable energy sources not to exceed 100 kilowatts or exceed the customer’s peak electric needs or capacity of the distribution circuits. The credit for the net excess kilowatt hours (kWh) generated by the customer shall be 4 cents per kWh.
The resolution was unanimously approved Resolution amending the Consolidated Fee Schedule. The proposed resolution amends the Consolidated Fee Schedule for the following: Pony Express Park Arena rental fee; tiered water rates for commercial and industrial uses; increase in fees for the North Service Area sewer treatment; and an increase in overdue fees and addition of a damage fee and media collection fee for the library. Following discussion by City Council members, a motion was made to approve the amendments to the Consolidated Fee Schedule. The motion passed 4-1, with Councilman Ireland voting “no.” Motion for acceptance of the Spring Run Annexation Petition for further review. A revised Petition for Annexation was received by the recorder’s office on June 16, to annex approximately 241 acres. The property is located on the northeast corner of Eagle Mountain, on the north side of SR 73. The first action for the City Council is the acceptance of the petition for further consideration. This will begin the 30-day review period for verification of the petition and related information for certification of the petition, after which the annexation will be noticed to interested parties for comments and protests. The petition may be approved at a future City Council meeting upon completion of the required steps. A motion to accept the annexation petition for review was received and seconded. Following discussion, the council voted unanimously to accept the petition.

Year to date in 2010, the Saratoga Springs Police Department has handled a total of 2,984 offenses. The department handled 508 reported incidents in May, 2010, up from 470 in 2009 and 408 in 2008, an overall 25 percent average annual increase in incidents over the past two years. The department currently has 19 patrol/administrative officers and two animal control/code enforcement officers, actively patrolling Saratoga Springs. Each officer works various shifts, providing the residents 24/7- 365 coverage; with police supervision round-the-clock. The Saratoga Springs Police Department was recently awarded the policing services contract for the City of Bluffdale. Members of the SSPD team are excited to be a part of an exciting new opportunity to serve the residents of Bluffdale. Chief Hicken and the SSPD team have begun preparations to assume the police responsibilities, replacing the Unified Police Department. The change-over is anticipated to occur today, July 1, 2010. The hiring process has been completed. The SSPD team welcomes: Officer Nathan Harris (UCSO), Officer Shane Taylor (Unified PD), Officer Merrick Pack (Farmington PD), Officer Kevin Flinton (Airport PD), and Officer Carl Hamer (Logan PD). Also two part-time records clerks, Jaime Soakai and Kelli Brownlee, were added to the SSPD family. All of these new additions will serve the City of Bluffdale, at their city offices. They will wear similar uniforms, badges, and equipment as the SSPD officers. They will also drive vehicles that will appear similar to the Saratoga Springs Police Department, however will be marked with “Bluffdale” on the side. Case sampling for May, 2010: #1- Fraud Officers responded to the Harvest Hills subdivision on the report of a victim who’d apparently received a letter and had been offered a “secret shopper” position with a company named MoneyOp.com. It was discovered that the “company” had later mailed the victim a cashier’s check, and requested that he sign a contract, and mail certified funds to an address in England. The check did not clear the bank, and the victim lost nearly $3,000. (Note- Remember to always be wary of offers for quick cash, or anyone offering to give you large sums of money upfront, with the request that you return money via a wire transfer, or funds drafted through your own bank, and a request to send money elsewhere, especially out of the country.) #2- No business license: have warrants, will travel On May 7, SSPD Officers were asked to make contact with three males selling their wares in the Harvest Hills subdivision. While speaking with the
men, who were in town selling products door-to-door, it was discovered that two of the three of them had outstanding warrants. One of the men had a $50,000 felony drug warrant. The other male had a minor traffic offense warrant. Both were placed into custody, and were transported to the Utah County Jail for booking. #3- DUI: driver license expired for 14 years An SSPD Officer on routine patrol conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle being operated by a male driver whose license had expired in 1997. During the stop, it was discovered that both the driver and passenger had been consuming marijuana and prescription narcotics. A police K-9 was deployed on-scene. After the dog “alerted” on the vehicle, two baggies of marijuana and drug paraphernalia were found inside a hidden compartment within the vehicle. The passenger admitted to being the owner of the drugs, and also volunteered that his friend, the driver, had also partaken of the illegal substances. Both were booked into jail, and the vehicle was impounded. #4- Threatening shopper A local retailer contacted SSPD and requested that officers respond to their store. The SSPD Officer met with several of the store’s staff. It was determined that a shopper, who has portrayed possible mental illness, had been stalking and pursuing a personal relationship with a store employee. After several attempts to ask the woman to leave the store and to not continue loitering, the female suspect became verbally irate and threatened store management with a physical confrontation. The woman, on several occasions, has attempted personal contact with the male employee, including trying to physically hug the male employee. The woman was escorted out of the store, and off of their property by the police. #5- DUI, drugs and court On May 14, while the Saratoga Springs Justice Court was in session, an SSPD Officer was requested to check the welfare of a woman in the parking lot of the city offices. While watching the woman walking around the parking lot, it appeared that she was impaired. She was stammering, and did not appear to be cohesive with her movements. The officer asked her if she was okay; she said she was. The officer then asked the woman if she was under the influence of any drug or narcotic. She said she’d ingested methamphetamine and had been under the influence of the drug for several days. The woman said she drove to the courthouse to drop-off a friend for her court appearance. After routine field sobriety testing, it was discovered that the woman, by her own admission, allegedly operated the vehicle while impaired by the drugs. She was subsequently arrested onscene and taken to jail. #6- Loud party SSPD Officers were requested to respond to the new condo-
minium subdivision just east of the Del Taco, on Venetian Way. At some point, in the early morning hours of May 21, officers received a complaint of loud music and yelling by “partyers.” Upon arrival, officers spoke with two people on a balcony. They were asked to come and talk to the officers. They did not come to the door. Eventually, another young man answered the door. He said that he lived there, but had just been “woken up” by the officers knocking on the door. After an investigation, it was determined that there were several young people at this residence. Alcohol was a factor in this incident. Several of the party-goers were intoxicated, and thus caused the noise to the neighbors. Five arrests were made, and one of the homeowners (not the man who initially opened the door), was also arrested for contributing to the delinquency of the minors at the party. #7- Fight Two people were involved in a physical altercation at the high school on May 21. While on patrol at the school, the School Resource Officer was requested to assist with the investigation of two young men involved in a fight on school grounds. After the investigation, it was discovered that one of the men was actually an adult, and had been asked to leave the property by the school administration. Instead, the man instigated an altercation with one of the WHS students. Both parties were cited and charged with disorderly conduct for disrupting the school’s activities. #8- Self-arrest?! While working a normal shift for the police department, an SSPD officer visited the residence of a man who resides in the Lake Mountain subdivision. The man was being sought for an outstanding $10,000 arrest warrant. Officers met with a family member on-scene. They were informed that the man they were looking for was not at home, but was at work. About one hour later, the man contacted dispatch, and asked to speak with the officers. He asked if he could meet with them, in person, about, “…whatever it is you need.” He was told that would be “great!” When the man arrived at the SSPD offices, he was placed into custody, informed of his warrant, and then taken to jail.

EM hosts Iowa City Thursday, July 1, 2010
circa 1856 By Susie White Press Release
Youth and families of the Eagle Mountain East and North Stakes of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints were treated to a historical time warp Saturday, June 26, as the entire field east of the Silver Lake stakehouse was corralled by booths, teepees, and activity areas that could make even a Boy Scout Jamboree blush. In case visitors needed a reminder, the large wooden sign at the entrance - flanked by two authentic pioneer wagons – welcomed all to “Iowa City”. This was an activity to help
local teens preparing for a 4-day handcart reenactment, or “Trek”, feel what it was like for those preparing for the “real deal” in 1856. The morning hours were set aside for the youth to meet their Trek families and bond as they visited each frontier station (which included rope-making, setting up a large canvas tent, looming, cattleroping, leather bracelet embossing, lantern and wagon wheel construction, making obsidian arrowheads, learning the dangers and illnesses of trail life along with their typical remedies, and even ax/steel knife throwing!). The afternoon lent itself to even more family fun as children scrambled to ride in the handcart. Siblings walked on stilts, and all who dared square danced to the piped folk music that created a frontier ambi-
ence. But for some, like Jennifer Hunt, who was fortunate enough to be there for breakfast and lunch, it was “all about the food.” Brother Bill Ackley and crew’s “grill skills” included all you can eat BBQ spareribs, dutch oven cornbread, baked beans and cobbler lunch. But lest you believe she is a little soft in the middle she also exclaimed, “I threw an ax into a tree and it stuck! I love our stake.” Other words used to describe the event were really cool, fantastic and phenomenal! Brother Scott K. Smith, who spent countless hours organizing the event, recounted as he thanked all for helping, “I’m exhausted, my hands and face are burnt, my body is sore and I couldn’t be happier!” Spoken like a true pioneer.

Discussion opens up regarding hospital The Crossroads Journal
By Kara Traveller Staff Writer
The Saratoga Springs City Council voted an approval to allow Mayor Mia Love to write a letter to Intermountain HealthCare and any other medical facilities to look to Saratoga Springs for building a hospital in the area sooner than later. IHC owns approximately 40 acres of land west of Wal-Mart near the IHC Instacare. Mayor Love, Council member Jim Miller and city manager Ken Leetham met with IHC on June 7 to open a discussion on the needs of this area. Council member Miller feels it is time to start looking at options in the medical area. "As the city gets ready to grow we need these services sooner than later. Part of the problem now is drive time, if you live in the south end of Saratoga it's a long drive to American Fork or Riverton." The hospital administrators took into account the concerns of the city and now will take time to research and decide what the next move will be. According to the meeting there were many things hospital administrators need to consider when planning for a hospital. Specifically the ability to staff a hospital and find-
Page 5
ing doctors willing to open up practice in this area. Miller explains the process is not a quick one "This is not going to happen tomorrow. There is a lot of planning to be done before they'll be willing to put in a hospital," states Miller. He also encourages residents to get involved. IHC welcomes letters from residents explaining the need for a hospital in this area.

June 8, 2010 The City Council meeting was called to order at 7:00 p.m. Those present included Michael McOmber, Jim Miller, Cecil Tuley, Brent Call, Bud Poduska, Mayor Mia Love and city staff. Public comment Stillwater Development’s HOA president stated that she was concerned about builders constructing houses in the development that don’t meet the HOA’s architectural guidelines. She noted that one builder’s actions were so egregious that the HOA used an attorney to compel them to stop construction. City Manager Ken Leetham noted that the builder complained the architectural control committee took three to four weeks to grant approval. The city was in an awkward position between builders and the HOA. He asked that the HOA’s approval process be timelier. Another resident stood and asked about a potential city library.Mayor Mia Love stated that a committee was being formed and urged her to contact the committee members and get involved. A Harvest Hills resident noted that the children in his subdivision were getting older and thought the Harvest Hills Regional Park should
have amenities older children would enjoy. He asked about the possibility of a basketball court. Another Harvest Hills resident (and BYU professor) asked for an update on the safety of the city’s culinary water. Love reported that all tests continue to come back negative for any contaminants. However, because the city can’t guarantee that residents will not cross-connect culinary and secondary water, the health department has asked that the city continue to chlorinate the water. Love believed the original source of contamination in May was a cross-connection. A Sunset Haven resident asked about the status of the proposed Sunset Haven park. City staff replied that it was being designed. DeVar Klingonsmith, a resident of Sunrise Meadows, voiced concern over Alpine School District’s decision not to bus students from his neighborhood to Westlake High School, Vista Heights Middle School or the new elementary school built nearby. He stated that the streets lacked sidewalks or shoulders, making walking to and from school dangerous. He asked about the status of the proposed walking path. Leetham reported that the Alpine School District had agreed to build a walking path, but that a piece of private land was preventing them from constructing it. Love described the situation as
frustrating and encouraged residents to voice their concerns by voting in the election. Klingonsmith continued saying that the city should work with the school district to build a bus barn in Saratoga Springs. He feared eventually the school district would split and leave the new district with the costs of building numerous education facilities. Councilman Cecil Tuley told Klingonsmith that the city was working with the school district to find a suitable site for a bus barn. Awards/recognitions Mayor Love commented how impressed she was with the Civic Events Committee and the fine work they were doing. The Civic Events Committee then presented Miss Saratoga Springs. She pledged her assistance to Mayor Love in representing the city and serving where needed. The committee also reported that the triathlon had been a success and that many participants had commented how organized the event had been. Police Chief Gary Hicken reported that his department entered into a three-year contract to provide police service to Bluffdale. As a result, the city hired five police officers and two records clerks. The police officers include Nate Harris (12 years experience), Shane Taylor
Thursday, July 1, 2010 (20 years), Merrick Pack (nine years), Kevin Flinton (2.5 years), and Stanley “Carl� Hamer (2.3 years). The mayor swore in the new officers. Hicken also hired two records clerks. Those included Kelli Brownlee and Jamie Soakai. Policy items Public Hearing: Tentative municipal budget for fiscal year 2010-2011. Leetham explained that the budget process included processing budget requests, constructing a tentative budget and having the City Council make decisions about discretionary costs. Leetham reported that the city’s budget had a baseline of $6.6 million. Projected revenue was estimated to be $7.2 million. Revenue over expenditures was $600,000 and surplus was $400,000. There would be no property tax increase this year, Leetham continued. However, there would be a $2/month water rate increase and a 22 cent increase in garbage collection for the first trash can. Harvest Hills HOA President Shellie Baertsch thanked the City Council for their hard work and frugality. She was also grateful for putting some Harvest Hills projects in the budget. Proposed Conditional Use for TNT Fireworks located in the parking lot of the Smith’s grocery store at approximately 13200 North Redwood Road, American Promotional Events doing business as TNT Fireworks, applicant.
City staff reported that the fireworks stand would be present June 20 – July 8 and July 20 – 28. The conditional use was unanimously approved. Proposed extension of time for completion of improvements in the Saratoga Town Center development project, Phillips Edison and Company. Capitol Facilities Manager Mark Edwards explained that the developer needed an extension on installing landscaping that was disturbed during the Redwood Road expansion project. It should be complete by 15 August. The extension was approved unanimously. Proposed Consulting Agreement for the Saratoga Springs Marina Park Master Plan. Edwards reported that Landmark Design would be designing the marina park. The design would be complete by September 30. The agreement was unanimously approved. Proposed transaction for the replacement of vehicles in the police department. Police Chief Hicken reported that three Dodge Chargers needed ongoing repairs and should be replaced. Hicken had negotiated a new lease agreement with a car dealership and would receive $23,000 for the Chargers. Hicken noted that most police departments lease vehicles for two years and then return them for new Please see SSCC NOTES on page 11

Three Cheers for America Whatever happened to patriotism? So often in the news it seems so much easier to criticize the country than defend it. And since this is July, why not celebrate what America is all about with a nice DVD? Here is a short list of some classic movies that will make you proud to be from the U. S. of A.: Gold Diggers of 1933 (1933) – In the midst of the Depression, Gold Diggers of 1933 features some amazing Busby Berkeley choreography, as well as a distinctly American optimism that we can weather the tough times because, well, that’s who we are. Some of the primitive production values are overshadowed by the movie’s magical moments. Stagecoach (1939) – This is the first great Western ever made, and single-handedly lifted the genre out of B-movie obscurity. Sure, it’s about a stagecoach trying to get from point A to point B against an unforgiving land, but aside from being a great ride (yep, a pun), it’s also a metaphor for social class, the state of the economy, and post-Depression parable. Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) – In Frank Capra’s ode to democracy, Jimmy Stewart plays Jefferson Smith, a middle-America everyman who’s homespun patriotism is seen to make him the perfect stooge to replace a late Senator. Smith makes it to the Senate, and quickly finds his ideals clashing with the prevalent cynicism. One of the greats!
Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942) – James Cagney highsteps his way through this rousing musical that tells the life of patriotic composer George M. Cohen. Well, sort of tells the life. After going to the premiere, Cohen reportedly said, “Great film. Who is it about?” Lifeboat (1944) – Alfred Hitchcock, recent British transplant to America, wanted to do something for the war effort, and Lifeboat was his response. A passenger ship is sunk by a German U-boat, and the survivors try to unite their diverse attitudes to be rescued, a task that becomes harder once a stranded German is plucked from the ocean. There are some terrifying scenes here, and Hitchcock shows the devastating effects of what may be necessary to win the war. Why We Fight (19431945) – And speaking of winning wars, check out this documentary
series of seven films directed by Frank Capra. Made for the American serviceman, Why We Fight was deemed so powerful, it was taken to John Q. Public to explain our involvement in World War II. Full of jingoistic references, American iconography and killer footage, Why We Fight is a jaw-dropping snapshot of who we were, and who we hoped to become. ****** Write to The Cinemaniac at mwnabhan@aol.com.

A Woman’s Write Heroism By Roxy Haynie Staff Writer
My nine-year-old daughter came home early from her sleepover at grandma’s house. She carried her blanket over one shoulder and shuffled through the door in her worn flannel pajamas. When I asked her why she didn’t stay the night, she lifted her little face to me and said, “Because I missed you, mom, and I wanted to come home.” I gave her a hug and replied, “Well, baby, you can always come home.” A wise child, this fourth-grader silently watched me unload the dishwasher. “You know,” she finally announced, “when kids are young their parents are their heroes.” Without another word, she hitched her blanket higher and took off to join her siblings in the television room. What can I say, she’s a nice kid who sees the good and overlooks the bad. I think I’ll keep her. Since that night, I’ve often thought about having heroes. I’ve heard it said that we live in cynical times, but I don’t believe it. How could I with the 4th of July waiting just around the corner? This is a big deal at our house, and not just because we’re a bunch of pyromaniacs. Independence Day is my husband’s favorite holiday. A true patriot, he leads our annual family discussion on the real meaning of this celebration. We reverently pay tribute to the founding fathers, our Constitution, and the miraculous history we share as Americans. We talk of the men and women serving our country today, of the price they pay to keep us safe.
Our family has a personal appreciation for the military. In World War II, Bert Culler was stationed in a small town in Italy. This village was poor, with crowds of hungry children foraging through garbage looking for something edible. Grandfather Culler saved food for these kids, leaving it in a clean place for them to find. At Christmas, he traded his Army-issue cigarettes for chocolate bars so the boys and girls would have a special treat. Grandpa Baum was also deeply affected by the war, and he rarely spoke of it. However, his grandchildren know that he liberated a prisoner of war camp. In that far-off, European prison, Lt. Baum found one of his high school friends from the tiny Oregon town he’d grown up in. Heroes and miracles seem to go hand in hand. Yet, we can’t overlook the quiet, everyday acts of civilian heroism. I’m talking about the fathers and mothers who get up each morning and continue the fight to provide for their families. These people work long hours with very little praise or recognition. They endlessly sacrifice and don’t ask for much, just an occasional “Thanks, dad,” or an “I love you, mom.” Heroes exist, as sure as mountain granite. They are our neighbors, our coworkers, our acquaintances. Even our children. We rub shoulders with these brave souls on a daily basis. Cynical world? I don’t think so. Not when you look at it a person at a time. Heroism is an innate element of the human spirit. It glows and sparks against the darkness. As the fireworks light the sky this year, I’ll remember this and give thanks.
El Mero Mero

Restaurant Review What would you say to eating at a restaurant where the food is made fresh daily? Made from scratch? So fresh you can taste it? All that combined with a close location and outdoor eating? How about fast food without the mass-produced taste? Food made with authenticity? Reasonable prices, friendly service? Supporting a local family business? I say yes! I just stopped by El Mero Mero. You’ve probably seen it. El Mero Mero is located on Main Street in Lehi in that quaint white house which previously accommodated Charlie Boy’s Pit BBQ. It is a family run business and has been open for just about a month. The owners just moved here. They have been traveling the country for the past three years selling their foods at powwows, farmers’ markets and state fairs. They liked this area so much they decided to settle in Lehi. Originally from Chihuahua, Mexico, they came to the U.S., namely California, 15 years ago. I spoke with the owner’s daughter and asked her why a person would want to eat at El Mero Mero. This is what I like: she told me that everything is fresh. All of the sauces, salsas, corn tortillas, meat, veggies, horchata, pineapple water, are made or prepared fresh- every day. How often do you find that? They grind the rice for the horchata, make their pineapple water with no artificial flavors, and they cook and cut everything, daily. I ordered the California Burrito, two chicken tacos and the pineapple water. The cashier suggested I try the
Page 9
Bodacious Backyard Burgers California Burrito as it is smaller than the normal burrito. If the California is smaller, I can’t imagine what their normal burrito looks like! The California has everything on the inside, the beans, rice, meat, onions, cilantro and tomato. I had the barbacoa beef as my meat choice. This thing was enormous, but so very good. It had a slight bite that made it just right. I think the California would satisfy even the biggest appetite. I took more than half home for leftovers. Lucky for me, I get a great lunch tomorrow, as well. The taco was served on two small corn tortillas topped with fresh cilantro, onions, sliced tomatoes and lime. Now how good can a taco get? It’s just a taco! Well, this taco was mouth watering! The chicken was seasoned just right and all of the toppings, along with fresh corn tortillas, melded together perfectly. Need more convincing? I brought my toughest critic along with me… my daughter.
Let me just say that you only need to mention that we are having Mexican food and the whines begin. This girl will only eat chips and salsa when it comes to Mexican. Now keep in mind, whenever we have Mexican at home or at a restaurant, she will not even consider trying anything, and on that rare occasion that we convince her to try, it is always the same look of disgust after she takes a bite. So I was amazed when she actually asked if she could try the chicken taco. It really looked delicious. So I let her try. Her reaction? “Can I have the whole thing?” And then when I was finishing the second one, she asked if she could have the last bite! Amazing. I just enjoyed my delicious pineapple water as I watched her finish off that chicken taco that I loved so much! Oh well, at least I have my California burrito to enjoy tomorrow. Come to think of it, I’m feeling a little hungry right now… I’m off to the fridge for my leftovers!
Take your next backyard barbeque from ordinary to gourmet with a few easy twists and turns on the classic American meal. 2.25 lbs. lean ground beef 1 envelope onion soup mix 6-8 slices pepper jack cheese 6-8 large crusty rolls, split and toasted
Southwestern spread (see recipe below) Suggested Condiments: sliced tomato, lettuce, red onion, avocado
Put ground beef and soup mix into a large bowl. With clean hands, incorporate the soup mix into meat. Form into 6-8 patties. Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill meat, turning patties only once (about 8 minutes each side), until no longer pink. During the last 3 minutes of grilling time, add a slice of cheese to each burger to melt. Slide meat onto buns and top as desired with condiments and Southwestern spread. Note: may be a bit spicy for children (substitute American cheese, if necessary). Southwestern Spread: In a small bowl, combine the following ingredients: 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 clove garlic (finely chopped), and 1/2 teaspoon chili powder.

vehicles. The city would always have a lease payment, but would not have the maintenance costs that come with older patrol vehicles. The new vehicles would be Ford Explorers designed for police work. These cars have a much better reputation among police officers, Hickens stated. The transaction was approved, Tuley opposed. right-of-way Proposed encroachment agreement between the Bureau of Reclamation, Direct Communication Cedar Valley and the City of Saratoga Springs. Edwards reported that Cedar Valley wanted to lay additional communication conduit with a culvert project. The agreement would state that the City of Saratoga Springs would not maintain the conduit. The agreement was approved unanimously. Proposed right-of way encroachment agreement between the Bureau of Reclamation, City of Saratoga Springs and Desert Peak Management Group, LLC (Western Hills subdivision). Edwards reported that the section of culvert being built through the proposed Western Hills subdivision would become a city road and would therefore be maintained by the city. The agreement was approved unanimously. Resolution No. 10-18 (6-8-10): A resolution adopting an interlocal agreement between Utah County and the City of Saratoga Springs regarding reimbursement for the Pony Express Parkway Highway Project. Leetham reported that the reimbursement was verbally agreed to in the past. Utah County would reimburse the City $2.8 million for

the road project. The City spent $3.5 million. The agreement was approved unanimously. Bid award for repairs to Saratoga Road. City staff reported that the road would be resurfaced for $46,000. The city would also spend an additional $10,000. Call asked if seepage issues had been remedied before the road would be resurfaced. Leetham said the problem had been fixed and that staff continued to monitor the road for reoccurrence. McOmber asked what length of the road would be resurfaced for the bid amount. Leetham replied that he didn’t know. McOmber then stated that he didn’t want to spend the additional $10,000 if the road could be resurfaced for the bid amount of $46,000. Edwards stated that George Leetham would inspect the failed areas of road to check for saturation. He would replace sections of road as needed. The City Council decided to approve only the bid amount. Bid award for the WelbyJacobs Canal Trail landscape project. City staff reported that the bid award went to Odyssey Landscaping for $57,000; much less than originally anticipated. The project location was between the Aspen Hills subdivision and Harvest Hills. It was unanimously approved. Review of funding options for secondary water service for Westlake High School and middle school properties. Leetham reported that Alpine School District wanted to continue to use culinary water to irrigate fields at Westlake and Vista Heights. But the city’s culinary water supply had limitations. Instead, the school
district offered to pay a $700,000 impact fee to build an additional water tank. An additional $500,000 would be paid next spring. Leetham continued, stating that the city would have to build the water tank and bond for its cost. But that it could use some of the school district’s impact fee and reduce the amount of the bond. Assistant City Manager Spencer Kyle noted that there were advantages to building the water tank. If the school district builds its own pond, the city gets nothing. But if the school district helps with the tank, the money would go towards water storage the city would eventually need anyway. Kyle reviewed several conditions he was prepared to communicate to the Alpine School District. Some of these included that the agreement was contingent on the city being able to secure funding for the bond and that payment could not be withheld because of a disagreement. The city would also not activate water until the agreed amount was paid. And culinary water rates would be applied. Mayor Love pointed out that the city tries to help the school district as much as possible, but they asked for too much. She thought the whole water situation could have been avoided three years ago if the district had included impact fees as part of the bond measure. The impact schools have on a city’s water supply is real, Love said, noting that the high school alone uses millions of gallons of water. The city can’t absorb that cost, Love concluded. The City Council authorized staff to communicate the agreement’s conditions to the Alpine School District. The consent calendar was approved and the meeting entered into closed session for acquisition of real property.
Westlake High School’s Drill Team, known as the Storm, had their first ever Unity Team Camp June 22-25. Storm members started their camp off with a service project at a community park in Saratoga Springs. They weeded
