Z News Dear Sandy Resident, I am happy to report the Curbside Bulk Waste Program will continue in Sandy, but with some environmental modifications. Last month, the Sandy City Council approved a new ordinance to improve and retain the program. This was the result of a long collaborative effort between administration, city council, and staff to address environmental issues but still provide this popular and valuable service to residents. As mayor, keeping the program going while meeting our environmental responsibilities is a top priority and I am pleased to deliver on this promise. There will be a few changes and we will need to work together to keep our stormwater drains clear from debris, but it’s a great outcome for the city. Watch for more information about new

standards for the placement of pickup piles, education and enforcement on the city website, and bulk waste mailer. Sandy City has always been a business-friendly city and to that goal, I have launched an economic development stakeholder group to ascertain the needs and vision of Sandy’s local business leaders. We are conducting robust conversations on neighborhood economic revitalization, workforce development and civic engagement. The future of this initiative is to bring businesses and residents together to create a collaborative plan to preserve the nature of our neighborhoods but identify where services and re-development are needed. I look forward to bringing these groups together to create successful outcomes for the city. If you are a Facebook user, please take a minute to follow the Sandy Mayor Monica
