Last week Westlake High School held their commencement exercises, aka graduation, honoring the first Westlake graduating class to have attended Westlake for all four of their high school years. The event was held at Utah Valley University’s Events Center in front of a full-house of onlookers, many of whom had to stand for the two plus hour event, due to the outpouring of support for these graduates. By the numbers, there were 514 students graduating, 55 of which graduated with Double cords Magna Cum Laude, signifying a grade point average between 3.9 and 4.0. There were 72 students who graduated Single Cords Cum Laude which is a grade point average between 3.75 and 3.89. Also of note, was student Madeline Nicole Hipol
have loved working and listening to parents and students as we have gone through the process to name the school, establish boundaries and determine classes to offer. My goal since the school was announced has been to continue to build and gain the trust of the community where parents know student learning is our focus, and that our doors are open to discuss the needs of our students.” Principal Sumner wants to make sure that students feel comfortable and welcome at Frontier Middle School, so that
who, besides receiving her high school diploma, had also taken enough college credit to graduate with her Associates degree. Those graduating in the top twenty of this year’s Westlake class are as follows: Stephanie A. Beales, Austin Chris Buxton, Dillon Thomas Gleed, Callie Paige Hansen, Cecilia Yvette Johnson, Lily McKennah Keel, Chelsea Megan Lee, Courtney Michelle Lees, Gavin Alexander McCarver, Kiersten Elisabeth McCarthy, Jose Alejandro Montero, Janelle Elaine Morgan, Camille Pay, Dax Kruzen Pettibone, Lainey Patricia Ruud, Ashlie Mailee Stoddard, Jordan Lee Sumner, Darrick Robson Twede, Zach Ryan Tyson, and Whitney Winsor. The graduation ceremony also honored teacher Sid Hatch who is retiring after teacher for 34 years. According to Principal Fred Openshaw the 2013 graduating class has earned over 4.1 million in scholarships.
more of the focus can be on learning. He wants every student to to know that their teachers care about them and their success, that they all feel included in something great, and most of all, he wants to ensure an amazing academic experience for all his students. The opening for Frontier Middle School is planned for August of this year, and is currently under construction just off of Pony Express Parway in Eagle Mountain. The student population is expected to be around 1400.

Saratoga Springs receives first CAFR Award By City of Saratoga Springs Press Release
The City of Saratoga Springs received a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Award from the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA). The award was given based on the City’s 2012-2013 comprehensive annual financial report (CAFR). This is the first time the City has received the award. “The City of Saratoga Springs over the last three years has made a serious effort to create more transparency and be fiscally responsible,” said Council member Michael McOmber. “This award is a strong indicator that we are accomplishing our goal.” “In a time where trust in government has appeared to diminish, receiving an award like this goes a long way towards increasing our citizens’ trust in their city government,”
added Council member Bud Poduska According to a release announcing the award, the GFOA considers the Certificate of Achievement the highest form of recognition in the area of governmental accounting and financial reporting. The City’s CAFR was judged by an impartial panel to meet the award requirements and encourages full disclosure to clearly communicate information in the CAFR document. The GFOA began awarding the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Program in 1945. According to the association’s website, www.gfoa.org, the awards “encourage and assist state and local governments to go beyond the minimum requirements of generally accepted accounting principles to prepare comprehensive annual financial reports that evidence the spirit of transparency and full disclosure.”
Major crash closes SR-73 for several hours By Aaron D. Rosen SSPD - PIO Unit
At about 9:30pm on May 18, 2013, officers and medical crews were dispatched to the area of 1200 W. SR-73 in Saratoga Springs (this is approximately two miles west of the Saratoga Springs Crossroads intersection). Upon arrival, officers discovered three (3) vehicles had been involved in a significant motor vehicle collision. The on-scene preliminary investigation determined a pick-up truck, which was traveling westbound on SR-73, had crossedover the center lane of travel, into oncoming traffic (EB) on SR-73. The pick-up collided into a mini-van being occupied by two people. As a result of the crash, the mini-van rolled and subsequently ejected the driver. The driver and passenger were later transported by ground crews to an area hospital for treatment of serious injuries. Immediately following the first collision, the pick-up then struck an SUV, also in a partial head-on type collision. As a result of this crash, a child being restrained in a child safety seat, was transported to a SL area pediatric hospital by LifeFlight ®, also having sustained serious injuries. The other two occupants were taken by ground to area hospitals for treatment of non-life threat-
ening injuries. Due to the force of the collisions, the young adult, male driver of the pick-up truck was pinned inside the cab of his vehicle for a short time. SSFD crews who responded to the scene utilized lifesaving extrication equipment to free the driver. The driver was taken by AirMed ® to an area hospital for treatment of critical injuries. In all, six (6) patients were taken by air or ground to a hospital. As a result of the nature of the crash, SSPD officers also employed the services of the SSPD Major Accident Investigations Team- in addition to a request for assistance from the UHP Major Accident Investigations Unit. Both teams utilized specialized equipment to reconstruct the scene and to further determine possible contributing factors in this accident. At the time of this informational release, SR-73 has been re-opened following a nearly four (4) hour investigation and reconstruction. Investigators state that they will be also checking to see whether alcohol, drugs, and/or distracted driving may have played a role as a contributing factor in this crash. However, due to the scene’s complexity, completion of this investigation may take several weeks. We send our thoughts and well-wishes to all those involved and impacted by this unfortunate incident.

Green Thumb by Jennifer Klingonsmith
Summer Invasion: Managing Bindweed It begins innocently enough: an almost pretty vine, with appealing white flowers, starts filling in the empty spots in your garden beds. “At least something will grow,” you surmise as you stroll through your yard. Two months later, this not-soinnocent vine (a.k.a., bindweed or morning glory) carpets your beds, has moved into your lawn, and is clambering in and out and on top of all other existing plants. As an added bonus, the once pretty flowers have faded and the vine has set seed, releasing an almost uncontrollable generation of invasive vines that will plague this area for years to come. Do not let this scenario play out in your yard this summer. Unbeknownst to many, Bindweed seeds can live in the soil for many years, just waiting for a little irrigation water to sprout. Bindweed develops long taproots that go several feet into the soil, making pulling the weed an ineffective method of control. In fact, breaking the vine simply encourages the taproot to send up additional growth. I would like to draw attention to the title of this column, in which the word, “manage” was used, rather than, “eliminate.” This is because Bindweed’s characteristics (described above) make the weed near impossible to eradicate. At best, we can control its growth. On the bright side, if you and your neighbors are diligent about control, bindweed can be reduced to a minor nuisance instead
of an overwhelming hurdle to a beautiful yard. If bindweed is an established resident in your yard, the first thing you must acknowledge is that Round-Up (or its generic counterpart) is your friend--your best friend. Buy a twogallon pressurized sprayer and a container of concentrated Round-Up. On a warm day with no wind, take your “new best friend” outside and spray the vines. Be aware, though, that Round-Up will kill all plant material, so if bindweed is growing in your grass or on desirable plants, see below for additional advice. Once you have sprayed, store your sprayer in a safe location and continue this process, consistently, every week; this is key in bringing bindweed under control. Within two or three applications, the vines should be dying. Once they look dead, remove them as you would other weeds. You will want to leave them in place while still alive so that the plant can carry the poison down to the taproot. Once the initial plants have been removed, continue to go out at least every two weeks and spray any new vines. If you spend one summer spraying, you will see a significant reduction of volunteer starts. This plan is most effective when your neighbors are also doing this in their yards. If bindweed is in the lawn or growing on desirable plants, control is tricky but not impossible. For the
grass, use a broadleaf weed killer every week; this will kill the vine, but not the grass. The broadleaf weed killer is not as strong as Round-Up but will be effective if used weekly. If bindweed has invaded your flowers and shrubs, pull the vine off the plants as much as possible, then carefully spray the vine. Again, be consistent and look carefully for new starts. If the vines are established and cannot be separated from the plants, you may be left with no choice but to remove the plant and then control the bindweed. But this should be a last resort. Some may be hesitant to use herbicides in their yards, but with bindweed, Round-Up is the only effective method of control. Follow label directions, wear gloves, keep kids and pets away when spraying, and store it in a safe place. If these precautions are taken, Round-Up is a safe and effective product. Probably the best advice concerning bindweed is to never let it go to seed. This happens soon after it flowers. Be sure to spray or remove the vine before the flowers fade. Installing your yard and putting down mulch will also go far in keeping an invasion at bay. Jennifer Klingonsmith is a landscape consultant and coach in the Saratoga Springs/Eagle Mountain area.

EM City Council Notes By Danielle Palmer Staff Writer
The Eagle Mountain City Council meeting on May 21 began at 7 pm. Public Comments: Nikki Whickman was concerned about road improvements needed, specifically Porter’s Crossing intersection. She suggested a more clearly marked crosswalk/flashing lights to better serve pedestrians. Marianne Smith also said they needed lights and signs and asked about the new utility bills for her area. Robert Schermerhorn had some questions concerning the budget, and a specific “debt service” note. He asked if there was money set aside to pay off loans. Paul Jerome clarified that the debt service note was from last year’s budget and needed deletion. He estimated the total debt and said annual payments are made from the general fund. City Council Comments: CM Burnham expressed appreciation to those in attendance. CM Steinkopf reiterated her thanks and added that he listens to and takes note of public comments. Mayor Jackson excused CM Ochsenhirt from the meeting; Ochsenhirt planned to review the video of the meeting later. CM Painter said he needed more input from the public. He urged residents to get involved in the budget process before it is voted upon. CM Ireland advised the importance of asking questions, learning and of making suggestions to the council. Recommendations for residents are encouraged. Mayor Jackson spoke about the Eagle Mountain Boulevard chip seal last year being insufficient and the process of having the company fix the problem for them. Introduction of Miss Eagle Mountain Royalty and Rodeo Royalty. Miss Eagle Mountain: Ashton Glass, Queen; Alyssa Diaz, 1st Attendant; Sydney Jackman, 2nd Attendant. Mayor Jackson described Ashton’s awesome talent as “Cirque-dusoleil-esque.” Ashton Glass introduced her platform titled “Dancing Is Healing.” Glass said that she considers dance as a way of healing and wants to encourage its use as a form of therapy for all kinds of ailments, including autism, illness, and low self-esteem. Rodeo Royalty: Janelle Robbins, Queen; Mckell Wall, 1st Attendant; Lexie Brady, 2nd Attendant; Cheyenne Manning, Teen Queen. Janelle expressed her excitement for Pony Express Days and thanked the council. Consent Agenda was approved unanimously, removing the Porter’s Crossing Town Center item for further discussion in the regular policy items. CM Ireland made the motion and CM Painter seconded. Development Agreement for Porter’s Crossing Town Center – Ridley’s Market/Ace Hardware. Minor changes were made to the original agreement. CM Ireland clarified that they were agreeing to do their part as fast as they could and asked about a specific storm water easement. CM Burnham moved to approve the agreement including the changes, CM Steinkopf seconded, and vote passed unanimously. Public Hearing held for an Ordinance adopting the Eagle Mountain 2013-2014 fiscal year budget. No action was to be taken. The final budget will be adopted June 18, 2013. Paul Jerome presented the budget summery. Adam Bradley asked for more explanation on transfers. Another Eagle Mountain resident, who was unidentified, was curious about the
transfer of $110 thousand to balance Pony Express Days, asking why she should pay for city events she doesn’t participate in. She’d never attended any events and doesn’t plan to. She stated in the four years she’s resided in the city she has not met anyone who had participated in the events. She suggested they heighten the prices for the events to make up for the costs instead of having her pay for it. CM Painter said it was personal preference of the council to provide funding, as they had a very big response from residents who attend. Robert Schermerhorn asked about the city’s loans. He expressed a need to set aside money for paying off the loans and stated they cannot wait until the last minute and use other means for loan payments. Jason Walker informed that they make annual payments to these loans and are already doing as he suggests. In the budget, each item will say an amount for each loan payment. Paul Jerome opened up a presentation to illustrate visually. CM Ireland pointed out an increase in gas and electric bonds. Sam Allen introduced himself as the writer of the Utility Scandal Report and reminisced about when he warned the council if they raised utility rates they would be met with outrage. He considered the town hall meeting held on utilities as the fulfillment of his prediction. He stated he felt people no longer attend council meetings because they have made up their minds that the council isn’t doing its job as it should, and he predicts this will show in votes in the election. He described the changes made by the council as having taken too long, and only a result of stress. He stated he was tired of it. The same unidentified, EM resident who was previously mentioned, considered herself a Pony Express Days participant. She wondered how the financial plan for these events compared with other cities local event plans. The mayor stated that there had been studies on other cities. Jason Walker didn’t know the numbers by memory but the council agreed it was a matter of priority. EM resident appreciated the opportunity given to residents to take the survey about Pony Express Days and express opinions. Marissa Bradley asked about the city disposing unwanted land. Mayor
Jackson said there is a process in place. They went through a time trying to dispose of some properties. Jeremy Cook explained they were running into plot issues and would have to review subdivision plats. The process was not working well. The mayor related it to homes being foreclosed and leaving an additional parcel that winds up going to tax sale. The former city attorney determined the amounts whereon these properties would be sold. Robert Schermerhorn wanted to address Pony Express Days, stating he appreciated why money is spent on the events. He pointed out many people have come in to be put on a payment plan for utilities. He felt that when this kind of thing happens, it doesn’t seem like city events are as important anymore. There is a bigger problem elsewhere. Mayor Jackson affirmed utilities don’t pay for Pony Express Days. There was a dispute on the funds intermixing in the general fund per transfers. Schermerhorn asked for more documentation to back up the separation. Jason Walker added that if they did refund everyone for their contribution to Pony Express Days it would be something like $12 per citizen for the whole year. ***L pointed out that $12 may not seem like a lot to some, but to her it would fill up half her gas tank and so it would mean something to her. The public hearing was then closed. Agreement for approval of an amendment to the Ranches Master Home Owners Association (HOA) Maintenance Agreement. The appropriate length of the watering year was discussed. CM Burnham stated she did not think she ever watered in April at all. CM Ireland said appropriate watering recommendations seemed much lower then the estimations given in the agreement. CM Painter stated this was an opportunity to challenge the relationship they have with the HOA. Mayor Jackson noted they needed more documentation on what was being used so they could be more informed before voting. She recommended taking more time. CM Burnham motioned to table the item. CM Painter seconded, and the motion carried unanimously. Resolution for the city’s established Fireworks Restrictions in the upcoming year. Chief Andrus pre-
sented information to recommend the city follow the same restrictions as 2012, as well as meeting requirements within the State adopted International Fire Code. CM Burnham encouraged residents take advantage of the opportunity to gather with neighbors for fireworks and referenced her own neighborhood celebrations. Mayor Jackson read out the specific firework restrictions. They are allowing fireworks at the Pony Express Park and Silverlake Amphitheater parking lots and will be providing garbage cans and water hoses for clean-up use. They added the specification of “asphalt” to describe the allowed locations. Specific dates and changes were read out. CM Painter moved to adopt as clarified and CM Burnham seconded. The motion passed unanimously. Council Business, Reports and Comments: CM Steinkopf said Parks and Rec. is working on presenting an adopted park. CM Ireland pointed out public comments are for recommendations please. What is your recommendation? Mayor Jackson encour-
ages residents to make recommendations and email them. There was discussion about removal of an unattractive sign on SR 73 and Mumford said it may be seen as an abandoned sign that they could remove. CM Burnham commended those who remained to the end of the meeting. Mayor Jackson mentioned a text she received about a family, the Timmermans, who spent weeks in service to the city along EM Boulevard and literally took seven pick-up loads of garbage away. She expressed her appreciation to the family. As a city, they strive to accomplish as much as they can but can use help like this, and she appreciates the time and effort given. She also accredited those who received the Citizen Service Awards, Steve Eaton and Vincent Liddiard, who are great volunteers in the community. She expressed her excitement for the upcoming events in Pony Express Days and said it always shows how there are a lot of people wanting to see these things succeed. The meeting adjourned at 8:50 pm.

Planting trees in a big way By Danielle Palmer Staff Writer
Eagle Mountain City resident Cory Rydman had his own landscaping business before moving into the city, and has lived in the City Center on Maple Drive for seven years now. Over the years, he watched year after year while the city planted trees in the public area near his home, only for them to fail and be taken out. New trees would replace them, and the cycle began again. Rydman noticed the trees were of varieties that could not thrive in the clay soil. He knew they were developing root rot and lacked the needed nitrogen. He described the area where the dead trees piled up as a “tree graveyard” and recalled thinking to himself over and over, “Why don’t they plant something that’ll grow?” As his family grew, Rydman told Crossroads, he contemplated how nice it would be for the area to have trees develop and grow bigger as his children grew. That was when he decided he could do something about it. He found out the city’s arrangements for their trees, and on March 16, 2013, sent an email to the city administrator, Ifo Pili. At the time, he thought he would either be brushed off or met with difficulties or stipulations, but was met with nothing but encouragement. In his email to Pili, Rydman described his observations respectfully and offered a proposal that he would plant and care for certain breeds of trees in the area that would thrive. The only thing he
asked for was to have the city pay for the trees. He described the types of trees he had in mind and offered that once they are thriving they could make a good model for what can be done in other open areas throughout the city if desired. He offered the labor for free and estimated the total cost for the trees. The response he received, was not what he had expected. Ifo Pili responded on March 19 in great appreciation. He stated he gets “a lot of emails pointing out problems from residents in the city, but rarely [does] he get solutions.” He added that it was a great idea and put Rydman in contact with the Parks Manager, Brad Hickman. Furthermore, on April 2, Pili emailed Rydman again to follow up and ask if he was able to speak with the Parks Manager. Rydman had been able to discuss the trees over the phone with him by then and was waiting for the go-ahead. Soon, Rydman was able to plant eight trees. On May 14, Rydman emailed Pili again to report the status of his work, express his thanks, and give the final receipt amounts. In the email he stated, “Perspective is everything, I believe. When I first moved here, I was a bit of a whiner, if only to my wife. I realize my other family members criticize their communities at times as well. My outlook has changed quite a bit. I’ll admit I love where I live. The running trails, the wildlife, etc., and want to help make positive rather than negative impacts.” He mentioned the great new idea for a Facebook group where people can
share positive informative things about the city, run by the new editor of the Crossroads Journal. Both Ifo Pili and Brad Hickman, the Parks Foreman, replied to Rydman’s email expressing further appreciation for his proactive attitude. Hickman stated, “I went over this morning and looked at them and they looked great!” He also told Crossroads he was impressed with Rydman’s proactive attitude. He felt like the process went so smoothly because it was an already designated park area and they had funds set aside for the trees. If residents observe any other issues and they want to take action, a proposal by email to the city can go far. The city wants to take the right actions in bettering the city and any ideas or help to do so from residents is a great asset to the city. Rydman provided a good solution for the city to save money as well as improve the area. Ifo Pili described his experience with Rydman as “a breath of fresh air”. He explained that with the city budget, amounts are determined for city projects and then the smaller projects like this one are easily worked with and adjusted during the year within the budget plan. Rydman’s suggestions fell within the line items they had for tree replacement. He commended Rydman for his willingness to help out and do something about the issue he observed. Pili even stated he felt inspired to do more with his scout troops to take action. He would like to encourage this kind of request by anyone within the city.
