Continued page 6 SEARCH CONTINUES FOR INNOVATIVE USES OF THE FORMER LIBRARY BUILDING
The Kaysville Municipal Building originally housed city offices, a library, kitchen, assembly hall, and a concrete vault for city records. The building was designed by the Salt Lake City based architectural firm of Ashton & Evans. Construction began in late 1941 but was halted after the attack on Pearl Harbor; construction did not resume until 1943 with completion in 1944. Funding for the building came in part through a WPA (Works Progress Administration) grant. This one-sto ry structure was built using the native stone from nearby canyons. The building housed the Davis County Health Department into the mid 1950s. From 1962 until 2015 it was home to the Kaysville Public Li brary. The library was housed in the north half of the building and the City Hall and offices were housed in the central section and the south wing. The library expanded into the entire building when Kaysville built new city offices in 1987. It is currently used as surplus storage for the city. The old city library building is vacant but may be repurposed along Kaysville’s Main Street. courtesy of Kaysville City

Palmer’s mother, Ruth Harvey, was a spitfire. As a girl, her mother lived in Syracuse and rode the bus to Davis High. “Mother told me she used to ‘rock the bus.’ I am not surprised.”
“Mom told us we were going to be teachers, we didn’t have a choice, so we all graduated as teachers,” Palmer said. Palmer graduated from Davis High School in 1959, then attended Weber College and Utah State University. After col lege, she took a job as a home economics teacher at San Juan High School in Blanding, Utah, 329 miles away. One night after parent/teacher meetings, Palmer came home to see her roommates talking with a lanky, fair-haired young man named Jack Palmer.
One of Fruit Height’s longest residents is Elaine Harvey Palmer. She turned 81 last March and has lived on a part of her father’s original farm for most of her life. She was born March 18, 1941, to Brigham and Ruth Hill Harvey. Her father raised Hereford cows and farmed alfalfa. He helped bring clean culinary and irrigation water to Kays ville and Fruit Heights.

“I went with him in the old, blue-paneled truck to Haight’s Creek Hollow,” Palmer said. “He made me stay in the truck as he cleaned moss out of the headgates and treated it with chem icals. He wanted to protect me, so I think that’s why he didn’t let me go to the creek with him.”
“He told me later he knew from that first look that I was going to be the girl he would marry,” she said. Jack asked her to ride up the mountain. She remembers he wore a Russian coat someone gave him. She had no idea at the time the influence the Russian people would have on her life. Jack and Elaine dated for the rest of the school year. The next summer, Jack told Elaine he was moving to Cedar City to attend college. “So, I called Cedar City High School and demanded a job there,” Palmer laughed. They were married on October 8, 1964, at the Logan Tem ple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
“I had to get married there because it’s where Mom got married,” she Eventually,said.Jack finished school and they returned to Fruit Heights where they built a home on part of her fa ther’s old farm west of Mountain Road. They have lived in the same home for 55 years. Jack ran a heavy equip ment their--sixstayedofatyearsnomicstaughtbusiness.excavationPalmerhomeecoforafewandworkedabank,butmostthetimeshehomewithgirlsand two boys.“There was always plenty to do with eight kids,” she remembered. When Jack retired, they decided to serve a mission in Rus sia for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. “We served for two years in Tyumen, Russia (2008-2010). Came home for a year (2011). Went again to Moscow for an other two years. (2012-2014). Came home for a year (2015). Then we went to Novosibirsk for eighteen months (20162017). We only came home early because Jack had kidney stones,” Palmer said. She loved serving in Russia. “It was a beautiful, beauti ful country. It had many trees, but the best part of Russia was knowing the people. The people were wonderful no matter where you went. Many of the people I met still write to me,” PalmerPalmersaid. loved living on the fourteenth floor in Moscow right above Katherine the Great’s Cathedral. “Our apartment overlooked her grand fields,” Palmer said. However, not all her experiences in Russia were wonder ful–there were also some scary times. “Many were out to get American money. They advised us not to spend any money. We told everyone, ‘We don’t have any money,” Palmer said. They were waiting to cross the street at a stoplight and Jack noticed two men were trying to steal her purse. They had to run to get away.

It is a beautiful world that we live in and there are good people everywhere.”

Debate followed about the concept drawing showing four homes and the fact that a drawing showing five homes would be clearer for the public. Ultimately, the Council voted 5-1 to approve the PRUD overlay zone as presented without restrictions on the number of lots (knowing the R-1-14 rezoning allows for up to five if the applicant could figure out a way to do so). The Mayor and City Council overall felt this was a great compromise and illustrated the developer and City working together to address public interest. l
City Attorney Nic Mills said having the rezone and PRUD overlay separate is traditional in Kaysville. He said nothing is changing from what is being presented and if they were able to figure out some way to build five lots, it would be possible when granting the PRUD overlay.
s e P t . 2022 | Page 5D avis J ournal . C om B ased on public and elected official density and oth er concerns, the Kaysville City Council previous ly denied a rezoning application for the property at 602 South Angel Street. The proposal at that time was to re zone 1.66 acres at 602 South Angel Street from A-1 Light Agricultural District with a minimum lot size of 40,000 ft² to R-1-8 Single Family Residential with a minimum lot size of 8,000 ft². The proposal also included a PRUD (Planned Residential Unit Development) overlay. The property is a 72,309 ft² parcel on the west side of Angel Street with one existing single-family home which faces east. That proposed change in zoning would have allowed for the construction of up to nine single family dwelling units.
Having owned and operated Hamblin Insurance & Financial Services, Dallas Hamblin is no stranger to entrepreneur ship. He and his wife, Sarah, and their three children have lived in Kaysville for years. Although his public business office is in Clearfield, Hamblin needed a location closer to home where he could work alone and get things done without interruption. So, he rented the upstairs of the building at 1 N. Main Street (the building was the original Barnes Bank constructed in 1891 and most recently, an Allstate Insurance Office). Hamblin and his family were in Panguitch attending the Annual Balloon Rally festival and decided to stop for ice cream at a local favorite spot. It was there that Sarah, an ice cream con noisseur, discovered Fluffernutter…. a favorite offered from the BYU Creamery consisting of vanilla ice cream, peanut butter swirl, graham cracker swirl, peanut butter cookie pieces, and marshmallows. Hamblin said he returned home and started in vestigating the origin of Fluffernutter and it started him thinking about selling ice cream. He and his wife talked about it and enjoyed the dream of having an ice cream shop to sell BYU Creamery flavors (there were none in Northern Utah).
Community Development Director Melinda Green wood said, “The earlier rezone did not pass but based on feedback, the applicant has returned with the application to rezone from A-1 to R-1-14 with a PRUD, but with low er density.” She said given the current A-1 lot size and zoning, only one single family home is allowed, but the requested zoning would allow up to five single family homes. She discussed lot size, density, and setbacks as sociated with the proposed R-1-14 rezone and said the applicant has supplied a concept drawing illustrating four homes on four lots. Greenwood said the revised proposal continues to meet General Plan elements including Kaysville still be ing primarily residential, supplying diversified housing adaptable to changing conditions and aiding in the housing crisis. She said surrounding property owners were noticed and four emails with concerns about increased density were received. She told council the Planning Commission approved the rezone Councilmembersunanimously.werehappy to see the compromise, and unanimously approved the rezone. However, debate followed about the PRUD overlay and the fact that the concept drawing shows four single-family homes, but the zoning would allow up to five. Greenwood clarified the Council would need to require a development agreement to limit the density of the PRUD overlay.
“Word of mouth and locals have really promoted the loca tion; business might be slow during the day, but often there are lines out the door in the evenings,” he said.
Hamblin said he employs about 22 kids, ages ranging from 14 to 17, and they are amazing in their contributions to opera tion. Summer hours are Monday thru Thursday, 12 noon to 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 12 noon to 11 p.m. Winter hours most likely will be 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. Monday thru Thurs day and until 11 p.m. on the weekends.
Applicant David Nelson said due to minimum lot size and setbacks, he had not been able to fit five homes on the concept drawing. He said he is still awaiting the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood zone overlay which could also further affect buildability options. He said he would like to keep the possibility for up to five homes just in case a civil engineer could figure out a way to do so.
Fast forward to 2022, and one day while going to his “work office,” Hamblin noticed a vacancy sign on the main level of the building. The dream became a reality, and The Kaysville Creamery officially opened its doors for business on May 20, 2022. Hamblin said it took about three months to renovate the former office space (complete with 70s style green carpet) into a proper space to sell ice cream. The shop originally offered only BYU Creamery ice cream, but their turnover was so great that BYU could hardly keep up and they kept running low on flavors. Hamblin inves tigated Utah State University Aggie Ice Cream and said he can now cater to fans of both colleges and ice cream flavors. He said, “there are typically 16 rotating flavors offered at one time and about 50 flavors total.”
When asked about crowd favorites, Hamblin said the BYU Grand Canyon (graham cracker ice cream, graham crack er swirl, and chocolate covered honeycomb) was a big seller as well as Coconut Joy (coconut ice cream, chocolate swirl, and roasted almonds), and True Aggie Night (vanilla ice cream swirled with raspberry and dark chocolate raspberry filled hearts). Hamblin also said he was surprised at the popularity of the sherbetHamblinflavors.said he has never run a food service operation before and there was a learning curve. He said originally, they had a huge sign built with the flavors permanently displayed…. but he soon discovered that ice cream flavors are not always available, and the flavor availability can change daily. So, they settled for more traditional ice cream shop signage that can be changed as needed. “Parking can be a challenge, but families also seem to enjoy parking and walking to the destination,” he added.
The Kaysville Creamery opens on Main Street
Hamblin, sporting a sweatshirt that read “A wise man once said nothing,” is engaging and enthusiastic about his businesses. He and his wife take turns doing whatever is needed and have plans that include an exterior ice cream themed mural, holiday functions and events, live music, and even a themed 7 o’clock sing along. Utah’s Hometown really needed a local ice cream shop to add to its already charming Main Street. If you haven’t tried it, grab your family and visit The Kaysville Creamery to enjoy one of those mouthwatering ice cream flavors! l
City Council once again considers rezone at 602 South Angel Street
Mayor Tami Tran said the developer initially came in with a plan that was not approved, adding “he wanted to be a good neighbor, has changed his plan drastically and returned with something very reasonable.”

“Mr. Nelson has been honest and transparent in say ing this is what we can layout on paper, knowing there might be potential for change,” Tran said. She feels it would be fair to approve the PRUD overlay and not limit the number of homes to four.

FFKR Architect Steven Cornell discussed the Historic Building Condition Assessment and Recommendation Report. He referenced the Main Street revitalization and its impor tance and connection to this building. He said a vibrant Main Street needs to supply a reason to bring people to the street to engage. Cornell referenced the Old Library Building as “Kays ville’s Pantheon,” or akin to a Roman Temple or location denoting the most honored persons of a group. The building is modest in its pres ence on Main Street but has the great qualities of fronting onto Main Street, nice windows, approachable and scaled to pedestrians, and includes a great deal of thought and historical craft.
Parks & Recreation Director Cole Ste phens said the City Council conducted a work session last September to consider next steps to be taken with the vacant building. Staff was asked to engage with a third-party consultant and on November 4, 2021, the City Council authorized a contract with FFKR Architects for an assessment report on the Library Building.
Cornell talked about structural issues and the original building space and layout. The primary recommendations for improvement include landscape/irrigation modifications to prevent water intrusion; repointing exterior masonry walls; repair of/replacement of ex terior doors; repair of/upgrade existing win dows; repair/stabilization of precast concrete elements at the entrances and cornices; repair/ replacement of the roofing membrane (largely driven by structural enhancement); repair of/ replacement of water damaged and wall finish es (floorings/ceilings); and insulating the foun dations from the inside as well as the exterior wall. Total hard construction costs estimated by FFKR are $1,576,558 for everything, ex cluding general contractor costs; and including those general conditions the estimated amount of $2,196,564.

“The majority of the building’s archi tectural components are in good condition,” Cornell said. “The exceptions generally reflect conditions which are isolated to limited areas and represent a scope of work that can be ac complished with reasonable effort.” He said the exterior envelope of the building is not performing well, but there are still opportuni ties for improvement and remediation of these issues.

Councilmember Mike Blackham suggest ed “allocating funding to get the building draw ings to the point where they could be sent out to bid and actual costs provided in response to a Request for Proposal (RFP)”. Councilmember Perry Oaks said, “there is nowhere in the re port that recommends demolition, only that the building can be fixed.” The Council was unani mous in that the building is iconic to Kaysville, Main Street might not be the same without it, and it is worth coming up with a plan for it to be repurposed (depending on cost). Mayor Tami Tran said she “would love for this building to be repurposed; it would be fan tastic if use were ½ restaurant and the remain der a museum so that when people are waiting for their food, they can peruse the museum.” She said she would like to save the building by asking for private companies to come in and open a restaurant and help pay for costs. She said the city is very aware of cost and commit ment of taxpayer money but could potentially offer incentives or creative alternatives. Ultimately, the Council determined the next best step would be to solicit a call for in terest and issue an RFP/RFI for ideas to remod el and restore the former city building. This would involve minimal cost to the city and enable evaluation and determination of interest and viability. Stay tuned for this public advertisement; all ideas are encouraged! l
The Council debated various scenarios and ideas, including the potential to consider multiple available aid programs, grant funding, or even bonding where the taxpayers can de cide. Councilmembers inquired whether costs would increase the more time goes by, with Cornell estimating 5% typical cost increases per year associated with inflation. He did say the building shell could be upgraded and any tenant could fund the remaining internal costs to drive the design costs down.
Jared Ward said he’s been careful not to “project running” on his kids. “Instead, I try to help them set goals and learn and grow in whatever they enjoy doing. But, Paul has been running every morning with a buddy on their own and it’s been so fun to watch that process.”Erica Ward said, “We’re always asked if our kids will be Olympian and that’s a lot of pressure. We don’t want to force anything on our kids and have not pushed them at all to run. We don’t want them to do it unless they want Erica,to.”who found success in the hurdles after falls throughout junior high and high school, which took her away from the sport until she continually decided to get up and try again, said she has been enjoying a new opportunity in running – this time, to just simply “keep up with Paul.” “I feel like my self when I’m running and it makes me hap pier, confident, and really keep everything in perspective while pushing boundaries of doing hard things,” she said. “It’s been real ly fun to run with Paul and let him take the lead. I’m so proud of him and proud of how he is pushing himself.”
Jared and Erica Christensen Ward both ran for Davis High and then competed for BYU before Jared – who was a collegiate All-American in the 10,000 meters – tried his hand at the marathon and quickly rose in the ranks nationally. On the world stage, he placed sixth at the 2016 Olympics in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, as the top American finisher and has been a decorated professional runner for nearly a decade. The 33-year-old Kaysville native and his wife, who now live in Mapleton with their five children – Paul, 8-year-old Ellie, 6-year-old Julia, 3-year-old Magnolia and James – is often known for having his family at his races. On July 4th of this year, they decided to participate together as a family of seven in the Kaysville Rotary 5K.
Jared Ward’s running career continues and he is actively training towards a second Olympic Games, this time in Paris in 2024. “It will be an exciting thing for my family so I’ll at least go these next two years and then we’ll see where we’re at,” he said. And the Ward’s also plan on making local 5Ks a family tradition. Despite hav ing moved his family to Utah County, Jared Ward expressed his love for the Davis Coun ty area. “There’s a big piece of our hearts still there, that’s for sure.”l
Olympian marathon runner Jared Ward didn’t have much time to celebrate win ning the Deseret News 10K race July 23 in a personal best time of 27 minutes, 53 sec onds. He needed to switch into dad mode and take his 1-year-old son James from his wife Erica’s arms so she could get to the starting line for her own 5K race.
“It was so fun and exciting to watch my wife and son race,” Jared Ward said. “They’ve been cheering me on for so long and I’ve always looked forward to cheering on my kids in whatever they compete in, whether that’s soccer or baseball, or cross country.”

Ward family running to keep up with each other
The trio slept in a hotel near the race route along with their baby the night before the event. “My race was at 6 a.m. and they stepped out of the hotel to cheer me on a cou ple of minutes into my run,” said Jared Ward, who won the race for the second time in the past three years while also placing second in 2021. Erica, Paul and James then went with friends to get to the finish line where the baby handoff would happen less than half an hour later. They then used the electric city scooters to get to their own starting lines.

“We had it all timed out where I knew I had to finish quickly and then I could go get our baby,” Jared Ward said. Erica placed fifth in her age group in a time of 26:43 while coming in 110th overall. Their 10-year-old son Paul also competed in the 5K – in just his second race ever – and crossed the finish line in a personal-best time of 26:45, taking seventh within his division and 111th overall.

“This career has been a blessing in a lot of ways for our family, and it was so great to be able to say, ‘Today is about all of us,’” Jared Ward said. Ten-year-old Paul not only took to the event in the Kaysville race, but he actually never stopped until the finish line. And be cause it was “so fun,” Paul decided to also participate in the Deseret News race a couple of weeksDuringlater.Paul’s race, Jared Ward was with his dad, who was helping deliver ice at the race, and they noticed Paul coming. “I wasn’t expecting him for another three min utes or so, so it was exciting to see him run that fast, and more importantly have so much fun doing it,” Jared Ward said. “I thought the 4th of July race was pret ty fun and I wanted to keep running, so I signed up for the next race,” Paul Ward said. “My motive is imagining being in the top 10 so numbers are a big part of it and then the other half is how fun it is.” Last summer, Paul began running each morning with his friend, Tate, who wanted to get faster for tackle football. “I’m faster than Tate, so I told him I would help pace him,” Paul Ward said. “So, I would knock on his door every day at 8:45 in the morning and we would run to the school and back [a distance of nearly two miles].”

Kaysville adopts Main Street Revitalization Plan
to
Mayor Tami Tran added that the city will continue to engage with the community about the plan, but to begin to find funding sources to help implement this plan, a plan must be adopted. She clarified the library building is not included with this plan and it focuses more on a redesign of the road to make it a more walkable area and to create more parking for businesses on Main Street.

Greenwood said the concept builds on Kaysville City’s Main Street Vision the City created in 2019. This vision is a broad direc tive for Main Street, and this more detailed collaboration with UDOT for the street rightof-way and transportation elements is an im portant implementation piece of that vision. She said the initial conversations among Kaysville and UDOT highlighted two key priorities: placemaking and access. The con cept reflects these themes. Place in this case means public space, aesthetics, slowing traffic, and a full down town streetscape extension. Access means pedestrian crossings, parking, access man agement, network, and active transportation. This document provides an overview of the concept and its elements; the details and ex amples of each element; and ideas for how the project will be implemented and funded.
Council Member Mike Blackham added that the city is not looking to implement this plan with city money but to consider other sources (including UDOT) to obtain funding.

Kaysville Community Development Director Melinda Greenwood explained the Main Street Revitalization Plan has been an ongoing process for over two years. She said the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) has been involved in those dis cussions, as they own this portion of Main Street; members of the community, includ ing businesses and stakeholders have also been“Whileinvolved.staff feels there will need to be further amendments made to the plan, it is ready for approval so that staff can pursue ways to fund the project,” she told city coun cil.
better.
Dr. Hendershot’s patient care philosophy is to use the least amount of medication possible to accomplish the best possible results when treating allergic diseases such as some tools especially evaluate asthma not getting He is also unique in his ability in Utah to thoroughly evaluate, manage, and treat many of the complex and unusual causes of chronic cough and problems triggered by smells, exertion, or intermittent throat swelling especially when related to allergy.
Greenwood said relative to timing, UDOT has a project scheduled to do an overlay on Main Street and the best time to incorporate improvements or enhancements would be to have that done all at once ver sus at various times. Staff recommended the council approve the proposed Main Street Revitalization Plan.
The Kaysville Main Street Preferred Concept seeks to improve Main Street’s access and sense of place while still mov ing traffic on the state highway corridor. It does this through a major extension of the pedestrian area on the west side of the cen tral block of Main Street and landscape and streetscape improvements in the new en hanced public space. These improvements will create more high-quality public space; improve the pe destrian environment; slow traffic; increase the ability for pedestrians to cross the street safely, conveniently, and with ease; better connect Main Street to the parking on the City Hall block; maintain parking and make it overall more convenient; and manage ve hicle access on and off Main Street. The major tradeoff of the concept is the loss of on-street parking spaces on Main Street (primarily on the east side) in ex change for a much bigger pedestrian envi ronment on the west side of the street, a more traffic calmed environment, and shorter and more frequent pedestrian crossings. The con cept seeks to make the parking in the City Hall block more convenient to Main Street patrons and diagonal spaces on the near by cross streets help make up for lost Main Street parking as well. The City Council voted unanimously to approve the Main Street Revitalization Plan draft concept. Mayor Tran said the Kaysville Main Street process shows that focused, careful collaboration between UDOT and a local community that considers common goals can open the door to creative solutions. She said now there is a plan in place to use and reference, staff can pursue funding. In an effort to complete this project the right way, yet still preserve the Kaysville culture, the Council encourages the commu nity to continue to provide input. l This graph shows the area impacted by the Kaysville Main Street Revitalization Plan.

Sparks said it’s been a smoother tran sition than he thought it would be. “There’s been great cooperation. We’re looking good to be fully transitioned by the end of December. We’ll start taking fewer and fewer paramedic calls and try to let them (cities) take as much as theyBertcan.”Holbrook and Bob Peters were two of the first paramedics for the Sheriff’s Office. “We were the first to go to paramedic school,” said Peters. “I was a sergeant in patrol and I had expressed a desire to run a program in the department. There were no full-time fire departments so they couldn’t run a paramedic program.”

Peters was with the paramedic program for 10 years. “Then I got promoted but I was an active paramedic until I retired in 1987. I also flew with Lifeflight. Most of us were flight paramedics.”It’sbittersweet to see it end, he said. “It makes sense. I just think of the thousands and thousands of lives saved in Davis County. That’s what I’m most proud of.” “The county is growing and filling in,” said Commissioner Lorene Kamalu. “We want to make sure we have the best service in the most efficient way. This transition is city led and county supported.”

The Sheriff is such a respected leader, she said. “Those conversations were a true collab oration for an end result of how to get there. Something that is fair to all but keeping safety as the top consideration.” In the beginning no one thought this could ever happen, said Kamalu. “It has hap pened and all the city leaders and a great Sher iff and his team get the credit. This gives us efficiencies without compromising services so the focus can be making sure that the service will only get better with change and never go backward.” l

The current paramedics can make the decision to go somewhere as full-time para medics or be in law enforcement full time, said Sparks. “Fire departments are hiring paramed ics and gearing up. A lot of the staff will stay and work as deputy sheriffs. Most cities will have their own or are part of a fire district like North Davis and South Davis, they’ll get their service from them.”

“It’s been a long, great program,” said Davis County Sheriff Kelly V. Sparks. “Every body has mixed emotions but they are proud of the work they have done. It’s the best thing for the county. As a department we’re looking forward to the opportunity to function as an or ganization.”Someof the original paramedics are here, he said. “We’ve lost a few over the years that have passed on.”

Peters said he voiced that around. “Then I found an unsigned note that said something to the effect of ‘check out the paramedics in law enforcement in Kent County Michigan.’ I called immediately and they told us to come see what they do and how they operate their services. I went back there for a week, riding in their program. We adopted the program and that’s how the whole thing started.” It’s grown into something huge now, he said. “But back then the county would only pay for us to operate one truck in the north end of the county for a year because they didn’t think it would work. After the year they authorized service in the south end of the county. Then it just blossomed from there.”

Presenter: Marcello Surjopolos Whether you've been doing preparedness for 30 years or just getting started, you'll save 100s of hours of research and learn principles in this class that will change the way you do your food storage! When it comes to emergency preparedness, there are 2 things you NEVER take chanc es on: Food and Water. Everything else, like sanitation, heating, cooling, light, shelter, etc. could be created during an emergency (if need be). But, if you don't have the right foods or clean water ahead of time, you won't find them in the supermarket if things get desperate enough. In this class, you will learn how to do food storage the right way, the first time! Come learn why mylar pouches may not be the best solution for your long-term storage, why many pre-made meals spoil long before their 25-year shelf-life claims, how and where to store your foods, and which foods will preserve long-term and which ones won't (the answers may surprise you).
Theatre 14 @ 11am-12am and 3pm Presenter: Marcello Surjopolos Water is one of the most important storage items that is needed to sustain life. Find out how best to store water, how often it needs to be changed, how to treat it properly and what filters are on the market and are best suited for your preparedness needs.

Presenter: Beuna Tomalino Edible landscaping involves growing edible plants in the landscape. Edible landscaping does not necessarily involve planting in the traditional sense where vegetables are planted in a garden spot or fruit trees are planted in a small orchard.

Edible plants can be used as groundcovers, shrubs, trees, perennials, annuals, vines. Come and learn how to use edible land scaping in your yard.

Dr. Thatcher says participating in out door activities like sports games, hikes or gardening together improves fitness.
As Bryan White watched kids playing summer sports, he had an idea for a class where families learn to play different sports together. The idea expanded and grew into the Family Super Sport Class, offered with Kaysville City Recreation this fall.
Dr. Todd Thatcher, D.O. with Valley Be havioral Health, agrees spending time with family is important because of “all the love and support it provides. Being with fami ly helps construct principles and improves overall mental health.” Spending time with family is key to a person’s development as it promotes adaptability and resilience.
The last week of the class (October 6) will be a family barbeque. Kaysville City will provide hot dogs and then ask each fam ily to bring a potluck dish. “It should be a lot of fun,” White said. For more information or to register for the class visit KaysvilleRec.com or call (801) 544-1788. l
“I think kids will love learning different games and love watching their parents play. If we want kids to be active, we need to give them something to do. Not every kid plays traditional sports like soccer, basketball, and football,” said White, recreation program di rector for Kaysville City. “We can teach kids games that they can play with their families and then they can spend more time together,” White said. The class will teach families how to play nontraditional sports like kickball, dodgeball, flag football, pickleball, volley ball, and more. It will be held on Monday nights from Sept. 12 to Oct. 5, from 6-7 p.m. at Barnes Park in Kaysville. White hopes many families will want to sign up for the class. He feels if a family “plays together, then they will stay together.” White enjoyed playing sports, board games, and card games with his family.
“Such key lessons can only be taught by family members coaching each other re garding life’s ups and downs. Family is what makes us who we are,” Thatcher said.
Don’t watch–play with Kaysville City Recreation
“There’s even evidence that time with family can boost the effects of exercise and other healthy habits. It improves heart, brain, hormonal, and immune health,” he said. The cost for the family super sports class is $30 per household of five. If there are more than five members who want to play, then each additional member will be $5 per person. “We have 5 families signed up with about 22 people that will be playing. We hope to have ten families. We do feel that more people with sign up as we get closer to the start day and deadline (Sept 5) for regis tration,” White said.

“Even now when we get together some one will pull out some cards. I think that sports are a great way to spend time together, not just watching one family member play but playing together,” White said.

Kaysville police officers handled 848 calls for service and made 37 arrests during the month of July. The department wants to send a safety reminder that when driving, always drive with caution, give enough time and always look at your mirrors before and after when passing other cars or lanes. Always slow down for traffic and con struction and don’t text and drive. Always be safe and drive smart. Stay focused traveling through work zones and pay very close attention. Traffic will occur at these work zones and drivers need to avoid all distractions to reduce car accidents. As one member of the public clar ified “work zones are a French fry free area.” If you see an emergency vehicle stopped along a roadway with flashing lights: Imme diately slow down and move over if you can safely do so. Switch to a lane that’s not im mediately next to the emergency vehicle, if possible.

CENTERVILLE—In 2020 an earthquake hit the valley, then in the fall high winds ripped through south Davis County causing signifi cant damage. Both of these events are a good reminder that emergencies happen and every one should be prepared. In an effort to help people be ready when disaster strikes, the cit ies of south Davis are hosting the South Da vis Emergency Preparedness Fair on Saturday, Sept.“A17.lot of people in the community feel the government is going to come in and save them in an emergency,” said Cacey Bowen, Chairman/coordinator of the fair. “Working in emergency preparedness I know that is not the case. The fact is you are on your own. FEMA tells us you are on your own for at least the first 72 hours and possibly a week before FEMA responds.”Having a basic supply of water, emergen cy food and some type of heat on the premises is imperative, said Bowen. “We’re trying to get everybody in south Davis prepared for them selves so they can help others.”
Bowen said the fair is meant to educate residents in various aspects of preparedness.
There are still vendor spots open at the fair, said Bowen. “We have the main hall and conference hall and some tented booths. We try to focus on people who are involved in pre paredness.”Featured speaker Marcello Surjopolos, owner of the Food Storage Depot in South Jor dan, will present “The Five Food Killers – Will Your Food Storage Really Last 25 Years?” and Mark Croft, from Croft Power Equipment, will present on Generating Power in times of need.

“Another reason to prepare is economic un certainty and people around the world are fac ing food insecurity. That’s the first time in my memory.”Thedirection it seems to be going is to have at least a year’s supply or two years sup ply if possible, he said. “The more prepared a community is and individuals are, the more it frees up resources for those who are not pre pared. If I have five cases of water in the base ment then I’m not standing in line taking up a place for people who are frantic and haven't stored water. If I have a supply of food in the house I’m used to eating I won’t be fighting in the back of a National Guard truck handing out food.”The South Davis County Emergency Pre paredness Fair will be Sept. 17 from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. The Megaplex Theater is located at 1075 W. Legacy Crossing Blvd. in Centerville. For vendor information, contact Louisa McDonald at 801-335-8851.l
The theme for the fair is “Community Disaster Resiliency, it’s a team effort!” In ad dition to the cities, the fair is supported by the Davis County Sheriff’s Office, South Davis Metro Fire and other law enforcement agen cies, he said. “There will be table top presenta tions from preparedness related groups such as the Red Cross, CERT, Be Ready Utah, Davis County Amateur Radio Club, Lakeview Hos pital and other public agencies that would be responding to put water back into place, etc.”
The fair will be held at the Megaplex The aters Legacy Crossing in Centerville. “Mega plex has offered five of the theaters for semi nars,” Bowen said. “There will be all kinds of different ideas such as planning communica tions in a disaster with hand held radios, what to take with you in an emergency bag, mentally preparing children for an emergency and many more.”

New teachers get information at an orientation at Farmington High. Generally the district has hired about 300 teachers this year it’s almost 400.
Federal prosecutors Stewart Young (center left) and Stephen Nelson received the National Association of Former United States Attorneys' (NAFUSA) Exceptional Service Award for their work with the Utah Gang Initiative. They have helped prosecute more than 300 federal cases involving meth, guns and Mexi can drug cartels.
OCDETF Operation Parental Advisor (FBI and ATF wiretap case in 2018: 17 gang defen dants in five separate indictments, with all but one defendant pleading guilty to sentences up to 13 years, resulting in seizures of 21 pounds of methamphetamine, two pounds of heroin, 10 handguns and two rifles) and several other major cases, according to the nomination letter. When the stats came in, gang violence had dropped 32 percent, based in part because of the Gang Initiative, said Young. “It’s intelli gence based. Agents and police officers build a network of who the players are and who makes the most sense to look at. Our part is to pros ecute the case from beginning to end, through arrest to Youngconviction.”saidthey consult with them before they make the arrest. “There are a lot of techni cal things in putting together a case. They will seek warrants from the court and we make sure we’re available to agents 24/7. They might call at 2 in the morning to talk things out. Commu nication is very important.” The Gang Initiative will continue, he said. “There’s always work to be done.”

The district offers one of the deepest mentoring pro grams in the state, she said. “Mentoring is required by board rule but it’s not funded. We’re lucky because our board un derstands the power of mentoring. Most of the board used to be teachers. The more training we give them the more we will retain Orientationthem.”is the first step to make that connection, said Riddle. “It gives them a chance to acclimate to the district and the schools and feel a part of the profession. Teachers often feel isolated in their classrooms. This event helps them to feel a part of the social fabric of the district.”
l
Riddle said they work with students in the TAP (Teach ing as a Profession) classes in junior high and high schools. “They’re learning in high school how to teach, now they can come over to an elementary school and see what that looks like.”They also look for people at universities that have not chosen teaching as a career, she said. “We try to bring them in, we get good hires that way. Especially in high school in hard to fill places such as CTE. That’s how our Teacher of the Year Andrew Bird came to us. We brought him in from a different (health) profession. He said ‘I only see people when they’re broken. With this I see kids heal, learn and improve themselves.’”Courtney Smith graduated from USU and this will be her first year teaching. “I’m most excited about the kids,” she said. “I’ve wanted to be a teacher since I was a little girl. This is like my dream come true. I grew up here and my mom works in the district. I didn’t really want to go any whereNicoleelse.”Andersen is coming back to teaching after nine years. “I was teaching in Ogden then left to stay home with my kids,” she said. “I’ve volunteered for four years and lucked into getting the kids in my class.” Andersen wanted to come to the Davis District because she believes it’s going places. “They have a lot of innova tive things right now,” she said. “The harassment (findings) pushed us into a new way of learning and new ways to ap proach the topic. It’s exciting to be part of the solution.”
Over the last four years, Young and Nel son have conducted five large scale Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OC DETF) gang cases which include OCDETF Operation Peanut Butter & Chocolate (DEA and FBI wiretap case in 2017: 24 gang defen dants, that all pleaded guilty with sentences up to 15 years, that resulted in 41 pounds of methamphetamine and 17 firearms seized.)
Riddle’s department is over recruitment. “I have not seen any concern over the harassment (DOJ findings),” she said. “There has been gratitude that we’re openly discussing the topic and the need to improve. I tell our teachers that they are culturally responsible and need to widen the lens they look through at students and appreciate the background of all students and let them know all are welcome so they feel included in our community.” Every child should feel safe, seen and appreciated for who they are, said Riddle. “What they bring, brings some thing rich to our classrooms.”
The district recruits potential teachers at career fairs at universities, she said. “We also go outside of Utah. We look for teachers in our academy school and embrace them while they’re in their educational experience. Every year we visit Latinos In Action classes and talk about teaching. We also invite a teacher with a diverse background to speak on how much they enjoy it.”
New teachers fill classrooms in Davis School District
FARMINGTON—School started on Aug. 22. As the doors opened, classrooms were filled with new teachers. In the past, the district has hired around 300 teachers. That in cludes elementary, secondary, special education and coun selors. This year it’s closer to 400. The new teachers gath ered Aug. 9 for a two day orientation at Farmington High. “We still have 15 openings in elementary and two for secondary,” said Allison Riddle, Davis District Elementary Mentor Supervisor. “I’m excited. It’s great to have this num ber of new teachers, they bring new energy.”

Local prosecutor targets violent gang members
By Becky Ginos | becky.g@davisjournal.com
NORTH SALT LAKE—Over the past five years, Assistant United States Attorneys Stewart Young and Stephen Nelson’s work with the Utah Gang Initiative increased federal prosecutions of violent gang members in the state of Utah and helped decrease gang crime in Salt Lake County by 32.8%. It is one of the most successful projects undertaken by the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Young and Nelson have also resolved 150-200 state cases for all the county attorney’s offices throughout the state. Both prosecutors recently received the National Association of Former United States Attorneys' (NAFUSA) Exceptional Service Award for their efforts. “This award is given to only 10 federal prosecutors in the entire country,” said Young, who lives in North Salt Lake. “That’s out of about 5,000 or so. Every federal prosecutor does a great job. I’m lucky to be honored. I think it is because of the volume and longevity of the from Stanford law school, Young worked in San Diego prosecut ing Mexican drug cartels. “My wife is also an attorney and she said she wanted to move back to Utah,” he said. “There happened to be an opening in the U.S. Attorney’s Office and I’ve worked here for 10 years. It’s a wonderful job. It’s fulfilling to serve the public and make the community safer.” There’s a lot of gang activity going on in Salt Lake and Davis Counties – we’re not im mune, said Young. “The Utah Gang Initiative targets violent gang members. We’ve worked with the FBI, the Davis Narcotics Strike Force and other agencies to prosecute 300 to 400 federal cases over the last five years of meth, guns and Mexican drug cartels that have con nections with violent gangs in Utah.”
“Hopefully, microtransit will encourage different strategies on how we’re maneuvering, whether to work or to another place we’re going,” Holbrook said. You can learn more by going online to https://www. rideuta.com/Services/UTA-On-Demand.

“Our recent work is making sure women and girls have access to period products,” said Emily McCormick, president and founder of Utah-based The Policy Project. “We’re trying to remove ‘period poverty.’ It’s interesting because usually you think that only happens in far away countries but it’s a big issue in the U.S.”
UTA on Demand is designed to provide corner-to-cor ner service within certain zone boundaries, giving patrons an easy way to connect to UTA bus stops or the Woods Cross FrontRunner station. By using an app on your cell phone, you can request a ride and a fully-branded UTA van will pick you up in minutes. Holbrook said this ser vice can address the concerns many in Davis County have about gaining access to public transportation.
“This will really help south Davis residents to plan their trips, and we’re encouraging everyone to try it out. In fact, the first 10 rides are free so everyone can try the service,” she said.

l Kristin Andrus (left) who represents the Andrus Family Foundation and is the Community Champion at The Policy Project and Amanda Covington, Chief Corporate Affairs Officer for the Larry H. Miller Company stand in front of an Aunt Flow dispenser. HB162 that was passed by the legislature during the 2022 session requires that all schools provide access to free period products.
Holbrook said the app-based technology matches multiple riders headed in similar directions into a single vehicle. The corner-to-corner service means riders will be picked up and dropped off close to their destinations. All the vans are ADA-compliant and curb to curb service is available for eligible riders.
Another benefactor to the service is the environment, in particular air quality. While the vans are standard vehi cles, fewer vehicles on the roadways can help with both pollution and traffic congestion.
In students under 18, 82 percent have missed school be cause they don’t have access to products, she said. “Eight out of 10 girls missed class. That number is so ridiculous.”
It’s an issue that is really antiquated, she said. “It’s not a new idea. Toilet paper is necessary and it’s in public restrooms for everybody. Our hope is to redefine this general need.” McCormick said The Policy Project researched how to implement disbursement of the products into more than 6,000 girls’ bathrooms. “We had to consider what type of materi als should be available, such as pads that are thick, pads with wings, etc. You can’t have a sixth grader playing basketball wearing a massive kind of diaper and she’s supposed to play like aAuntboy.”Flow was leaps and bounds ahead of anyone else, she said. “They know how to deal with this and their organic products consider women's anatomy, mobility and comfort. The dispensers are kid friendly and discreet.”

Aunt Flow free-vend dispenser to be installed in girls’ bathrooms

Private donations from the Larry H. & Gail Miller Foun dation and The Andrus Family Foundation made it possible to install the Aunt Flow dispensers and Aunt Flow organic cotton period products in schools, said McCormick. “The state will provide funding for ongoing products for the dispenser. We all workedAunttogether.”Flowfounder Claire Coder launched the company six years ago when she was 18, said Aunt Flow Senior Di rector of sales, Sara Djubek. “She was frustrated when she couldn’t find period products in the bathroom and she didn’t think anyone should have to go through that.” This gives children access to free products in the bath room, she said. “Many students can’t afford those products. We need to end period poverty. This is a problem affecting America and Utah as well.”
“Here in Bountiful, we have a lot of elevation shifts that make getting to some of our transit stops a little chal lenging,” she said. “We found that during COVID, a lot of our connector routes weren’t being utilized, so some were discontinued or changed. Microtransit is designed to be the solution to those challenges.”
Here’s how it works. A passenger can begin by down loading the UTA on Demand app to their smartphone from an app store or by calling 385-217-8191. As an alternative method for those without smart phones, you can also contact the service with a simple phone call. Once on the app, you register your name and set up an account using a debit or credit card, UTA pass or FAREPAY card. That passenger can then request a ride, will be told the pickup loca tion, and a UTA van will pick them up. This is a ride-share service, so other passengers might be picked up or dropped off along the way. The cost is $2.50, the standard UTA fare, and fully transferable to other UTA modes.
T here’s a new and much more convenient way for south Davis County residents to ride Utah Transit Authority buses and trains. That’s when UTA’s new microtransit ser vice, called UTA on Demand, began on Aug. 8 from North Salt Lake to portions of Farmington. The private-public partnership is part of an app-based program that will improve connectivity for residents in Davis County, according to Beth Holbrook, a UTA Board of Trustee and a resident of Bountiful. She spoke to the Bountiful City Council on July 26, explaining the new program which has been operating in Salt Lake County for several“Microtransitmonths.will improve flexible mobility options, help us repurpose underperforming bus routes, expand our transit access and service coverage, and provide first and last mile connections,” she said.
There’s a stigma around it and shame, said McCormick. “It’s embarrassing because it only happens to females, it’s something to keep quiet. There’s a silent need. It’s a big health issue. One in four teens can’t afford products so they’re scram bling to find something so they can go to class. It’s also a prob lem in the workforce.”
There’s a clear window so you can see exactly what it is so it’s not a Theremystery.”hasbeen a desperate need for a solution like this, she said. “We want to eliminate the taboo and celebrate that this is a normal human experience.”
The dispensers are easy to use, said Djubek. “All that’s required is pushing a lever and simply pressing inward.
NORTH SALT LAKE—Over the next few weeks, more than 6,000 Aunt Flow free-vend dispensers for period prod ucts will be installed in public and charter school’s girls’ bathrooms across the state, including Davis County. HB162 “Period Products in Schools,” sponsored by Sen. Ann Milner and Rep. Karianne Lisonbee, was passed unanimously by the legislature this past session and signed into law. It requires that all schools provide access to free period products beginning with the 2022-2023 school year.

I’m gonna say no, because he’s been warning us about the devastating effects of climate change for 40 years, but no one can hear him. So here we are, surrounded by rising temperatures, severe storms, wildfires, drought, species extinction and the demise of the Choco Taco. If I was getting hot ter each year, I’d be okay with that, but when our planet gets even a touch warmer, things start to go awry. Our Great Salt Lake is facing some dire global warming effects. With the lake shrinking, Antelope “Island” has to use airquotes. The brine shrimp industry could go the way of the dinosaurs. And the lake is now officially called the Great Salt Lick. Scientists say a toxic dust cloud rising from the dried-up lake bed will prompt a new line of citrus-scented Pledge prod ucts to “Remove deadly arsenic from your home because you didn’t address this problem decades ago, idiot.”
I recently walked through the Room of Extinction and Forewarning at the Utah Museum of Natural History, where dino saur bones are displayed, like the 90-footlong Barosaurus that was all neck and tail, and died 150 million years ago. A trophy wall of triceratops’ skulls stared down at me with hollow eyes and gaping jaws. Gi ant sloths and massive bears wandered this area 12,000 years ago. Of all the species that ever existed on Earth, 99.9 percent are now extinct. We could soon lose mountain gorillas, black rhinos, African forest elephants and orang utans. Here’s the thing, the Earth will be fine. It’s gone through climate cycles for 4.5 billion years. It’s watched civilizations rise and fall, and specialty soda shops fade into extinction. However, humanity is in a spot of trouble. “But the climate is going to change anyway. Why is it our problem?” annoying peopleShutask.up. Yes, climate change happens naturally, but thanks to humans, the pro cess has sped up like a meteor breaking the sound barrier. I don’t want my grandchildren to wor ry about water and food and sharknados. We need to elect leaders who promote green solutions. We need politicians who care less about their pocketbook and more about the planet’s future. I believe in global warming because I’m not a knucklehead. It’s my fear that one day my skeleton will be displayed in a museum as an extinct species, with the sound of Al Gore quietly weeping through the speakers.
Peri Kinder Life and Laughter A slow burn
Remember in the ‘70s, when it was discovered that chlorofluorocarbons from aerosol hairsprays were destroying the ozone layer, that thin layer of protection that absorbs radiation so we don’t get mi crowaved by the sun? Everyone used aerosol hairspray to get big hair and sky-high bangs. In fact, Aqua Net was our school mascot. But when we learned the chemicals damaged our atmo sphere, there was a worldwide campaign to ban them -- and it happened. Everyone agreed the ozone was worth protecting and did something about it. Crazy, huh? Where’s that cohesion now? Remember in the spring of 2020, when people actually cared about trying to stop the spread of COVID-19? We isolated in our homes, playing endless games of Uno, Clue and Cards Against Humanity, until getting the disease didn’t seem so bad. Flights were canceled, millions of cars were off the roads, and introverts were having big celebrations. By themselves. In their closets. During those brief weeks, cities around the world showed an improvement in air and water quality. Even in Utah, the sky was bluer and the air was cleaner. Now we’re back in our cars and the air is trying to kill us.

Physicians in Utah may continue to provide abortions for patients until at least July 11. On Monday, Third District Court Judge Andrew Stone granted a request from Utah’s Planned Parenthood Association for a 14 day TRO. He said he felt allow ing the law to take immediate effect could cause “irreparable harm. Doctors here are threatened with felonies. The affected women are deprived of safe, local medical treat ments to terminate pregnancies.”

HILLAIR FORCE BASE–Gold medalist Olympians Justin Schoenefeld andAshley Caldwell are used to doing flips in the air – on snow – not in an F-16 Thunderbird flying high above the ground. The Olympic skiers were guests aboard the planes during a flight demonstration practice run Friday in preparation for the much anticipated Warriors Over the Wasatch Air show Saturday and Sunday at HillAir Force Base. “It was so insane,” said Caldwell when she was back on firm ground. “I didn’t know if I’d keep my food down. I can’t believe these guys do this all the time. It was tense.” “It was crazy,” said Schoenefeld. “It was like an elephant on your chest and your vision goes away for a minute. We were going 4G’s and I thought that was crazy then we went faster and I thought ‘oh gee.’” It was a real treat, said Lt. Col. RyanYingling. “It was unique and fun for us and fun for you guys. It was a blast. We got through everything and went into super sonic airspace and broke the sound barrier.” They started training on the F-16 early this morning, said Jake Impellizzeri, Thunderbird eight. “It was information by firehose. I putAshley through the wringer. We pulled 9G’s and 1.28 Mach. We did loops and rolls and she got some stick time. It was an honor.”What they do in the Olympics showcases a beacon of excellence, he said. “It’s doing something greater than ourselves.That’s what they represent. It's an inspiration to our team that’s what we try to achieve in theAir CaldwellForce.”said she’s trained her whole life to reach the Gold medal standard. “TheAir Force sets a high bar. I give a high performance in skiing and these guys give a high performance in a different way. It’s two different worlds.” An aerial doesn’t get any less scary, said Schoenefeld. “When I do a triple backflip I’m nervous every day. When we took off I thought ‘oh we’re about to go fast.’” It was absolutely incredible, said Caldwell. “My Gold medal went through the speed of sound. This was the highlight of my post Olympic experience. It was a dream come true and now it’s off my bucket list.”It’s hard to describe the indescribable, she said. “It’s like if a dragon and a unicorn had a baby strapped to a rocket ship. I’m so excited to be a part of this and I’m grateful for their service.” l Gold medalists break the sound barrier aboard Thunderbirds
