Cooking up a book Letter from By Danielle Palmer Staff Writer
Eagle Mountain resident, Mark Hansen, is releasing his fourth cookbook on Dutch oven cooking this September. Hansen said writing the books stemmed from keeping a blog weekly for approximately seven years. “It’s actually a funny story,” Hansen says of his writing, “because before it all got started I had little interest in cooking. Now here I am writing cookbooks!” He remembered how his wife had noticed that he had once hinted an interest in Dutch ovens, so she surprised him with one for Father’s Day. “I was really surprised because I hadn’t thought much about it.” Hansen said, “But it did intrigue me, and so I though I’d learn.” He reminisced at his first try: pizza, preparing it in the kitchen and baking it on the back porch. His kids loved it, making for a new Sunday dinner tradition. What followed were many ups and downs. He mentioned “the great Corned Beef Disaster of ‘08” and the “bricks and doorstops that were supposed to be bread loaves” but also remembers his pride in his spicy-glazed ham, spice cake for his son’s birthday, and delicious Thanksgiving and Christmas turkeys. Among the list of successes, he also mentioned experiments like Greek Baklava and South African Potjie Kos, which is a venison stew. He was thrilled along the way to be learning how to cook. Cooking seemed to flame a passion in Hansen, for soon he was getting new cookbooks, watching shows and YouTube videos, and scrounging for more unique recipes and ways to cook. About a year into his new-found love, he started blogging about his adven-
tures at marksblackpot.com. He’d try the recipe and write about it. Then about two years ago he got an email from an editor at Cedar Fort publishing, who’d found his blog, asking him if he would be interested in doing some cookbooks. “I walked on air for a week!” Hansen stated, “I had to because that’s how long it took me to get connected back with the editor.” After three proposals for various book ideas and approaches, they responded by offering him a fourbook contract. The first book published was entitled “The Best of the Black Pot”, which was a compilation of recipes from his blog. It included traditional things like chicken and potatoes or biscuits and gravy, as well as more elaborate recipes like parmesan-crusted Cornish game hens and orange pork chops. Hansen’s second book entitled “Black Pot for Beginners” teaches the reader to become quite accomplished Dutch oven chefs by teaching from the bare minimum. It is divided up into lessons rather then chapters. “Around the World in a Dutch Oven” focused on more elaborate and international dishes.
Within this third installment, readers find French bread, German spaetzle with onions and brats, and Mongolian stir-fry. His new book to be released this fall, entitled “Dutch Oven Bread”, is dedicated to showing how to turn out delicious artisan breads in an outdoor Dutch oven. “There are many Dutch oven cookbooks that include bread recipes,” Hansen accedes, “but this book is more than just recipes. It shares all that I’ve learned over years of focused study. No more doorstops! Now I show how to make breads with a crackly crust and a soft, chewy crumb, with many various flavorings and ingredients!” Amazon.com published reviews on Hansen’s cookbooks. The Old River Rat writes, “I’ve camp cooked and used a Dutch oven on river trips for years, but have never found a book that would help me take it to the next level…until now.” The review continues to state “…until now I’ve not found one that actually told (showed) me how to set up and cook. Mr. Hansen writes like he does it, and a clear picture emerges in my mind and the fog…begins to clear…I love Hansen’s philosophy on cooking. Can’t wait to get home and fire up the charcoal.” Chris Jaronsky writes, “He has a great style of writing. It’s very engaging. Each recipe starts with a short, entertaining story. The recipes are pretty thorough and give you all the details you need to ensure success.” It is clear that Hansen’s take on cooking with a Dutch oven goes beyond the simple camp cooker most people know and into transformations like using the Dutch oven as a smoker for Smoked Salmon. Hansen’s cookbooks have all been published by Cedar Fort, under the Hobble Creak imprint and can be found on Amazon.com.
the Mayor
By Mayor Mia Love Press Release
I appreciate the opportunity I have had to serve the city of Saratoga Springs over the last ten years. We have come through difficult times and great times together. I am proud of the resourcefulness of our community as we tightened our belts, made some tough choices and did our best to live within our means. Our fiscal prudence paid off - we now have the highest bond rating for a city of our size in the state and look forward to sustainable growth in the future. I love my city. I am proud of the work we have done. As I continue in life with service to our community I am hopeful that without me as Mayor, my political opponents will not attack our city with negative political campaigning like we
saw in 2012. We love our city! Saratoga Springs deserves better than to be a political pawn. I believe public service is about just that – serving. It’s about getting in, working hard, then getting out and letting others have an opportunity to serve. I have dedicated my life to Saratoga Springs in municipal government for ten years. It’s now time for me to step away. Others have already stepped up, willing to serve as mayor and city council. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to brag to the nation about how wonderful the people of Saratoga Springs are and how you have enriched my life. You have been friends, neighbors, supporters, volunteer workers, advice-givers and role models for me and my children. For all of that, I sincerely thank you. Mayor Mia B. Love
Getting your child ready for kindergarten By Danielle Palmer Staff Writer
With the ever-increasing standards and benchmarks in schools today, many students are falling below grade-level, and it’s not only those already in the school system. Unbeknownst to many, those just beginning school – our kindergartners – are among those students falling behind. Gone are the days when kindergarten consisted of cutting, gluing, napping, and snacking. Now these young children are expected to read and write high-frequency words, pass spelling tests, write legibly, and
the list continues. Kindergarten is our new first grade. Vickie Smith, principal at Pony Express Elementary, speaks for many schoolteachers and administrators in the area in saying that this is a large concern. She has a list of great suggestions for parents to better prepare their children to attend school. Read a wide variety of books to your children. Literature allows children to learn different sentence patterns and to experience a variety of vocabulary that you may not use at home. In addition, reading with your children encourages them to read and learn and enjoy. Play games with your children
that promote counting. These can be games as simple as hide-and-seek or just counting the number of cracks there are on the sidewalk. As insignificant as these may sound, they go a long way in helping your child with number sense. Provide opportunities for your child to communicate in a variety of ways. Allow them time and resources to write, draw, listen, talk, tell/retell, ask questions and share ideas. Children learn language when they hear it and use it. Encourage your child to interact socially with other children. This allows them to learn skills that are taught by other children such as sharing and pretending. Just as
important as it is for your child to work/play with others, it is also important for you to allow your child to do things independently, even if it takes longer to accomplish the task. Connect your child to purposeful learning. Spelling family names is a good example of this. Although simple in nature, doing this is magical in building a child’s knowledge of letter and sound association because they are words they learned the meanings to early on in their lives. Principal Smith continued to say that the best predictor of reading success for children is to connect the sounds with appropriate letters – lower case letters in particular – before completing kindergarten.
Families can help with this at home using games, songs, and other means of play to make learning fun. The Utah Office of Education has developed a book of suggestions for parents and pre-school teachers that also can be applied to kindergartners. It is available online at uen.org/core/prek/downloads/earlyc hildhoodstandards2012.pdf. Principal Smith stated that her goal is to help parents work with their children. As stated in page 14 of the Utah’s Early Childhood Core Standards, “Children’s first and most influential teachers are their parents/family. They play an important foundational role in the child’s learning and achievement.”

SS City Candi- EM City Candidates answer dates answer your your questions, Part 1 questions, Part 1 By Danielle Palmer Staff Writer
By Emily Fotheringham Staff Writer
What motivated you to run for office? Barbie Riccardelli (City Council candidate): I want to help maintain the authenticity of our city by weighing the compulsion for growth and development and the necessity to preserve our resources and semi-rural, suburban way of life. I also believe a successful and fiscally responsible city should be run like a successful business. Jim Miller (Mayor candidate): I have had the privilege to represent the residents for the past three and a half years on the City Council. I felt that my leadership, experience, understanding and knowledge of city issues would allow us to continue the economic growth and responsible financial management we have seen over the past three years. William Burnett (City Council candidate): I have been concerned about some local spending by the city. I believe that every dime of tax payer’s money should be treated as time out of the tax payer’s life. I want to make sure that every dollar spent, by the city, is a value to the tax payer, after all it is the Tax Payers money. What do you think is wrong, and will you be able to make it better? Barbie Riccardelli: The balance of Residential housing types need to be more reflective of traditional single family housing on larger than average lots within the majority of the city. Regrettably, mostly due to the growing pains of a new city, some errors have been made and some of those were major. We need to legally correct those errors that are fatal to that vision. Jim Miller: We can always find something wrong, but Saratoga Springs has come a long way in the past few years. We are improving communication with residents via the city website, social media, and other venues so that residents can see what we are doing. We are making great progress to update the planning and zoning maps, planning code, and parks and recreation plans. William Burnett: Money should never be spent by the city unless solid evidence exists that there is either a pressing need or that an investment needs to be made in capital projects or personnel to avoid a pressing need at a future date. Also, closed door meetings. I believe that with very few exceptions, all meetings of all city officials should be open to every member of the public. What do you consider to be your political leaning (not party affiliation)? Barbie Riccardelli: As a business owner and manager of my household I am fiscally Conservative. Some debt is needed, but, basically spending only what you can afford is what I subscribe to. Jim Miller: Conservative William Burnett: I kid around and say I am an obstructionist, but in reality I am a conservative/libertarian. What do you think the city is doing right and how will you continue that? Barbie Riccardelli: Our City
was so successful in the area of fiscal responsibility that Saratoga Springs has received a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Award from the Government Finance Officers Association. Jim Miller: We are continuing to update city policy to protect the property rights of the residents. We have received multiple budget awards, such as the GFOA award for the past two years and we were also awarded the CAFR award this year. William Burnett: We have a good quality of life. I think our police department and fire department are top notch, for a city this size and I think that while our city has become more small business friendly it can be much more so friendly. Do you have financial leanings? Where should money be spent? Barbie Riccardelli: Neither utility rates nor property rates need to be raised; we are on sound financial footing. By following the policy of fiscal responsibility and encouraging commercial development in the legally allowed zones, it is inconceivable that taxes need be increased. Jim Miller: Saratoga Springs has restructured our debt to plan for future capital investments and equipment purchases. City staff has been working to review the water and sewer funds to make sure we are covering our costs without overcharging. William Burnett: I am not a believer in having debt, public or private. I think the basic expenses should be cared for, things like water, roads, sewer. I always believe in budgets being lean. The city gets all of its revenue from the citizens of the city. How many city council meetings have you attended, viewed online, or read minutes of in the last year? Barbie Riccardelli: All of them; spoken at several and read the minutes in depth. Jim Miller: I have attended, in person, 100% of all City Council meetings for the past three and a half years. William Burnett: Between six and twelve either in whole or in part, including reading the minutes on line. Describe a fair campaign and how you plan on running such a campaign? Barbie Riccardelli: A fair campaign is devoid of personal attacks. A campaign airing of all candidates’ qualifications, and accomplishments; full disclosure of positions and possible future actions which may impact the city residents as a result of those positions, is paramount. Jim Miller: A fair campaign is one that when it’s over your integrity is intact and you and your opponent can walk away on good terms to make the city a better place. William Burnett: A fair campaign is one where the candidate accepts no money from anyone to campaign. I think a candidate that accepts money is a candidate that owes someone something. I plan on spending zero dollars or as near to zero dollars as I can in this campaign.
On the Saratoga Springs and Eagle Mountain News Facebook group, The Crossroads Journal posted a survey obtaining questions residents would like to ask the city candidates. We approached the candidates with your questions. Their answers will be included in the next few issues of The Crossroads Journal. What motivated you to run for office? Robert Schermerhorn (Mayoral candidate): He feels the mayor has developed a “sense of entitlement” or “politician’s dream.” “I have worked in business where every penny counted and for a school district with a 6 billion dollar budget. Who do you think are better stewards of money?” Adam Bradley (City Council candidate): “Citizens motivated me. I am running because I care deeply for this city and I want to help our city rise to its potential. I care about how our tax dollars are being spent; our debt, our fees, our growth, and our future planning and reputation.” Nick Jessen, (City Council candidate): He was approached by a few people. He researched and found that the city is at a crucial point in history and he might be suited to help. “I am running 100% as a volunteer, and I am committed to donate my $500/month stipend to the city, once elected.” Tony Wosnjuk, (City Council Candidate): He wants to be more involved with city politics and decisions. He wants to be a part of a council that can make a difference and lead the city in the right direction. What do you think is wrong, and how will you be able to make it better? Robert Schermerhorn: “Transparency should be full disclosure of decisions and results, whether it embarrasses or honors the responsible parties. A real transparency breeds trust and keeps those in power in check where money is concerned. It’s backed up with facts, not fantasy.” Adam Bradley: “We have too much debt.” He noted that the city needs to actively pursue ways to lower bond debt. Utility fees are too high and bills are unclear. We need a fresh start and I believe in the unlimited potential we have.” Nick Jessen: “We need a key representative in the council for the city residents, and we need highly analytical, fiscally conservative practices to get back on track financially, absolute transparency in decisions and mistakes.
Tony Wosnjuk: He would base decisions on paying off debts and lowering energy bills. He wants to bring more business to the city and make residents lives more comfortable. What do you consider to be your political leaning? (Not party affiliation.) Robert Schermerhorn considers himself conservative. Adam Bradley: He is conservative with libertarian views. Nick Jessen considers himself fiscally conservative, socially moderate. Tony Wosnjuk is a conservative at heart. What do you think the city is doing right and how will you continue that? Robert Schermerhorn: likes the way the city handled recent fires and would make sure the fire department personnel continued their training. Nick Jessen: appreciates the mobilization of residents within the community because the city administration and citizens work together. He used the fires and floods as good examples of people pulling together. Tony Wosnjuk thinks the city is trying to convey a positive image to its neighbors. Do you have financial leanings? Where should money be spent? Robert Schermerhorn: “not spending citizen’s money without good reason, in other words it should benefit us, not create a detriment.” He would only keep activities the city can reasonably afford. Property tax rates come from Utah County. Utility rates shouldn’t be raised unless utility costs increase. Nick Jessen: stated his goal to represent citizens, and he thinks they want lower utilities, less debt, to continue Pony Express Days with more cost-effective and profitable manner, and a solid organization with 100% transparency. “We should listen to our citizens and what they want.” Tony Wosnjuk, “Pony Express Days is a great idea but the city shouldn’t get money from its coffers to pay for it.” He wants to concentrate on lowering resident energy bills specifically. “Eagle Moun-
tain should grow according to what it can afford. We should not try to spend more than what we have.” How many city council and planning meetings have you attended, viewed online, or read minutes of in the last year? Robert Schermerhorn: Attended or viewed the meetings for the past 12 months. Adam Bradley: He’s had leadership responsibilities Tuesday evenings with youth over the five years he has resided in the city and would attend whenever his schedule allowed. His schedule has recently changed, making it possible for him to now attend council meetings. He always reads the minutes posted and watches online videos. Nick Jessen: Read the minutes of every single council meeting in their entirety for the past two years before declaring his candidacy. Tony Wosnjuk: He listens to meetings online and reads The Crossroad Journal’s city council meeting notes when he can. Describe a fair campaign and how you plan on running such a campaign. Robert Schermerhorn: He will tell the truth as he sees it, stick to the facts and educate others about the facts. Adam Bradle: A fair campaign is, “one that can have open and honest communication between candidates based on facts and not emotions.” He then promised to run an honest and hardworking campaign. Nick Jessen: A fair campaign is one that “focuses on representing our citizens” and also on “coming up with solutions to problems, not matching candidates to issues or marginalizing opposing viewpoints.” He plans to run his campaign by example and by encouragement to his fellow candidates. Tony Wosnjuk: He is going to speak to as many people as possible. “My idea is simple: 'Live within our means and pay off our debts.’ We can do it without gauging our residents with added additional taxes and increased utility bills.” Look in the next issue of the Crossroads Journal for the next edition of the Candidates Q&A.

Green Thumb by Jennifer Klingonsmith
Be Water Wise
It is no new news that we live in a desert. However, many may not be aware that most of us have clay soil – which, as luck would have it – would rather have water run off of it than sink into it. By the number of yards that are watered on a daily basis, these two facts are not well known by local residents. But both affect how we should water our yards. Currently, Saratoga Springs residents are charged a flat fee for their secondary water, which is fairly inexpensive. Some may take this convenient reality as a license to over-water. This is not only wasteful but can harm and/or kill plant material, invite pests like snails and slugs, and encourage the growth of mold and fungi. So how much watering is adequate for our climate? I tell clients to
use this general rule of thumb: water once a week when temperatures are below 70 degrees, twice a week up to 85 degrees, and three times a week when temperatures are 85 plus. There is rarely a need to water more often. Two exceptions would be new lawns and sandy soil. When it comes to how to water, I follow these rules: When watering with spray sprinklers, water in cycles throughout your different zones. For example: seven minutes in each zone, repeated three times. This allows the water time to soak into clay soil. Roots will grow deeper and plants will be healthy. Do not worry wen you see newly planted shrubs and flowers wilt in the heat. This is a natural symptom of transplanting and should resolve in three to four weeks. Additional waterings will not
help. If you've put mulch around the plant, simply be patient. You can also make it a point to check on your plants first thing in the morning, after the plant has had a chance to cool overnight. If its appearance has improved, the plant is most likely doing well. Many more plants are killed by over watering than a lack of it. If you have an addiction to daily watering, break it now. This will preserve a limited resource and cause your plants and lawn to form deeper, stronger root systems.

Saratoga Springs City Council Notes By Jennifer Klingonsmith Staff Writer
June 4, 2013 The city council meeting began at 6:30 pm. Those present included Jim Miller, Shellie Baertsch, Michael McOmber, Bud Poduska, Mayor Mia Love, and city staff. Rebecca Call was absent. Before the meeting began, Mayor Mia Love asked for a moment of silence to honor a recently fallen soldier from Salem, Utah. He was killed while on active duty in Afghanistan. Public Comment Resident Chris Porter thanked the city for extending the contract for recycling services. He hoped the city would consider weekly pick-up of recycling materials. Resident Larry Johnson stated that he hoped the city council would always ensure that residents have a voice. Resident Barbara Riccardelli asked the city to consider appealing Judge Eyre’s decision in the Green Springs Manor decision. She said that the city needed to stand up for the 3,000 residents surrounding the proposed medium-density development. Policy Items Consent Calendar The consent calendar was unanimously approved. Public Hearing: Tentative Municipal Budget and Pay Plan for Fis-
cal Year 2013-2014. There was no public comment and no action taken on the budget. Public Hearing: Ordinance 13-8 (6-4-13): An ordinance of the City of Saratoga Springs, Utah, adopting amendments to the Saratoga Springs Land Development Code (Section 19:04, Establishment of Land Use Zones: Mixed Lakeshore, Business Park, and Institutional/Civic Zone). Councilwoman Shellie Baertsch suggest that percentages of lot sizes be listed in developers’ plans. The proposed code only required that percentages of commercial versus residential be included. Councilman Michael McOmber asked if the city council would have the authority to determine lot sizes later on in the process. He asked if it were possible for a developer to use only minimum lot sizes. City Attorney Kevin Thurman told the council that development agreements give them the chance to consider the feel and look of a residential development before giving final approval. Councilman Bud Poduska stated that the primary function of the mixed lakeshore zone is to protect access to the lake. He noted an absence of protective measures in the proposed amendments. City staff responded saying protective measures are
addressed in the “Goals” section. The mixed lakeshore zone is a destination-oriented development pattern. Staff felt like the intent had been captured. Poduska was still concerned because so much of the Utah Lake shoreline was available for development. He stated that as long as the city council could have influence on development through a required development agreement, the amendments could work. Poduska also asked if the business park zone would provide adequate space for businesses that might contract with the National Security Administration (NSA). In the end, the amendments were unanimously approved, granting land use authority to the city council. Concept Plan for Mountain View Estates located at approximately 450 West 400 North, Brian Sudweeks, applicant. City staff reported that the proposed development contained 12 acres and would be zoned R-3 (low density residential). Because of the size of the project, the developer wanted to make a payment to the city in lieu of open space. Staff noted that .45 acres would still be required to be open space. The subdivision’s location was surrounded by school grounds and existing parks. Baertsch asked if the city council had authority to waive the .45-acre open space require-
ment. She thought an HOA would have to be formed in the long run to care for such a small amount of open space; it didn’t make sense. And, she added, the city required that all city parks be at least five acres in size. City staff suggested a code amendment be created so that the city council would have the ability to waive requirements of small amounts of open space. Poduska agreed saying it would be better to take the open space and its maintenance costs somewhere else where it was needed within the city. No action was taken on this item. Discussion of Architectural Design Standards. City staff reviewed some of the subjects to be discussed including lighting, signage, and awnings. Then there was an extended discussion on the fine line between overregulation and making the city safe and inviting. City council approval of public art was also discussed. Discussion of the Extension of the garbage contract. City Manager Mark Christensen suggested a new model for the city’s waste removal fees. He suggested being able to give each household a garbage can and a recycling bin for the same price residents pay for one garbage can now ($11.59). He noted that currently residents are subsidizing those residents paying for a second
garbage can. This new model would encourage residents to recycle more and reduce the amount of tipping fees paid at the landfill. If the city went with the new model of one garbage can and one recycling bin per residence, the price for a second garbage can would then be $11.59. The city council discussed different fee schedules and tried to find the best way to optimize savings and encouraging recycling. Weekly recycling pick-up was discussed but Christensen warned that it would be prohibitively expensive. Currently recycling is picked up bi-weekly. McOmber expressed concern over one of the models where residents could get a second recycling bin for free. He didn’t want the additional bin to be free initially and then have to charge for it later. Whichever rate schedule we choose, he concluded, it needs to be sustainable. No action was taken on this item. Reports Mayor Love reported that she had recently attended the ICSC retail convention and was pleased to see that so many retailers know of Saratoga Springs. They know who we are and where we’re at, and there is a lot of interest in coming here, she stated. The meeting then entered into closed session.
