Mayor Frost had a monstrously good time at Halloween on Main in 2019.

MAYOR FROST

THE CONNECTION MAGAZINES ARE GREAT PUBLICATIONS,

and aptly named. In American Fork we are all about being connected, especially this time of year. Just a few weeks ago, hundreds of residents and employees gathered on September 11 for a day of service. During that day we cleaned up our parks and planted trees. Having great people serve shoulder to shoulder that day reminds me of something the late Halford Luccock said, “No one can whistle a symphony. It takes a whole orchestra to play it.” By working together, we created something beautiful. I look forward to the upcoming Chamber of Commerce event, Halloween on Main-a chance to spend time with residents, share candy, and enjoy fun costumes. I love being out there to meet our community. I am also grateful to our Chamber of Commerce for running the event and our businesses and city employees for participating. Similarly, we have Holiday Magic on Main in December with Santa himself visiting our humble city. These are all ways we stay connected. Staying connected is important, but it doesn’t happen on its own. It takes effort on our part to reach out to those around us. Staying connected with our neighbors requires talking to them, even when we are busy or tired after a long day. Staying connected in our community requires us to seek out and attend community events, even if they are filled with people we don’t yet know. But making the effort will return great rewards. You learn more about yourself and others. You have a greater sense of home and a greater feeling of connection with those around you. Your quality of life goes up and your fear of the unknown goes down. Please do what you can to engage positively and safely in your neighborhoods and community. Use the information found in this magazine to be more involved. Thank you, residents, for all you do. I hope to get even more connected with each of you. BRAD FROST American Fork Mayor

MAYOR PRO TEM LOTT FRIENDS OF ALPINE, Once again we are on the edge of the election cycle. The freedoms we enjoy in this great nation, state and city are a blessing beyond measure. So many of the rights we enjoy have been given to us with great sacrifice and efforts from thousands of people who have come before us. Because of their efforts, we have the opportunity to individually and collectively participate in ways to continue and maintain these rights and freedoms that we enjoy now. There have always been issues that cause divisions in our nation or even in our community. We have the responsibility to become informed about the issues and candidates and to independently exercise our right to vote. Please use kindness and be respectful of each other. As you talk about those who are willing to run for public offices, please understand they are putting themselves in a very vulnerable position and each one of them are making a sacrifice for us. Be kind, be involved, be respectful, and be prepared to vote. We appreciate each of our current residents and are grateful for all who have served in the past and those willing to serve us in the future.

a history of ALPINE CITY Adapted from historytogo.utah.gov

T

Once known as “Mountainville,” today Alpine is one of the fastest growing and most loved areas in the county.

he city of Alpine is located in the northeastern portion of Utah county. In 1850, several families, led by William Wordsworth, decided that conditions on the north end of Utah valley were ideal for settlement and raising cattle, and the settlement known as Mountainville was born. Agriculture in the valley got off to a rocky start. After an initial poor harvest, the settlers had several good growing years, until swarms of crickets and grasshoppers arrived in 1854 and plagued crops in the settlement for a decade. With movement in and out of the area, the insects, and fears of Native Americans, Mountainville grew slowly. The name of Mountainville was changed to Alpine in 1855, when the city was granted a city charter. Many poplar trees were planted in the 1860s, part of a larger effort to add trees to the Utah landscape. Alpine’s main streets were full of trees, which added beauty to the landscape of the town. Most of these poplar trees had died by the end of the 1920s, but city residents planted others to take their place. Several factors in the 1940s led to a period of dilapidation in Alpine. First, older structures fell into disrepair and were not restored by residents. Second, a turkey farm was built near the city’s main water supply. Many of the turkeys reacted to a mold in the oak trees and died. The die-off and the dust from the farm created health hazards for city residents, and the city banned poultry raising on the site. In 1946, the city bought the land where the turkey farm had been. In the 1960s, the city council faced challenges as they attempted to regulate the small town and keep it beautiful. Part of the challenge was that many people were moving to Alpine in an attempt to avoid similar city ordinances in the towns they came from. In 1965, however, residents caught the “Clean Up, Paint Up, Fix Up Campaign” vision of the First Lady, Ladybird Johnson. The city of 904 residents repaired fences, cleaned up debris, and generally spruced up the city. The energy and effort of Alpine residents earned them a special award of merit from the county, and a national distinguished achievement award from Washington D.C. Today, Alpine is very different from the farming community it used to be. The population is now over ten thousand, a large increase from less than a thousand in 1965.

MAYOR ANDERSEN FALL IS MY FAVORITE SEASON FOR SO MANY REASONS. The mountains are ablaze with color, sweater weather returns, football games and s’mores are back on the calendar, and inevitably there’s an election to participate in. This year there are municipal elections throughout the cities, and you can help choose those who will represent you and your city for the next four years. It’s surprising, but some residents who I talk to from all over the county don’t even know who their mayor is, let alone who their city council members are. Voter turnout for elections is usually high on a presidential election year (last year 81.2% of registered voters in Utah County showed up) while municipal elections turnout is much lower – 33.80% for Utah County in 2019. Why should you care about your local election? The people who you elect to represent you in your city make decisions that directly impact your day to day life. Your city council votes on codes that affect parking, landscaping, building, noise, animals, solar, etc. They make decisions about what the city’s budgetary priorities are, how to spend the city’s money, and even when to turn on and off your pressurized irrigation. These people represent YOU, and it behooves you to get involved and get to know them. So how can you get involved? Start by researching the candidates, and see what they stand for. Reach out to them and ask questions – candidates love to talk to people! Attend your local candidate debates or organize one yourself. You could also attend cottage meetings or host one yourself. Help your chosen candidate by passing out flyers or asking neighbors to put signs in their yards. Talk to your neighbors when you have helpful information to share about what you have learned. And then show up to VOTE. What about after an election – what do I do to support my elected officials? Find out what the city council is working on or proposing and then attend city council meetings! This is your opportunity to let the council know how you feel about proposed code changes, decisions, and concerns in the city. We are here to hear you – to literally represent you – so please help us out. Email or call your representatives and let them know what’s on your mind. Engaged residents are so helpful to the overall success of a city. Ballots will be arriving in the mail in October, so get involved and VOTE.

a history of CEDAR HILLS 21-09 Connection Magazine Ad.indd 1

Adapted from historytogo.utah.gov

9/29/21 10:05 AM

Cedar Hills, once a turkey farm, is now a bustling city with a population of over 10,000 residents!

C

edar Hills is one of Utah’s relatively young cities, having been incorporated in 1977. The area had only been recently developed as a residential area. Early settlers called the area Cedar Hills, due to the cedars that grew on the bench. There were some attempts at farming in the area, but it had been largely unsuccessful. It was a turkey farm that put the Cedar Hills area on the map.

During the great depression, Azra Adams and his wife, Effie Warnick Adams, developed a turkey ranch, and the Adams’ turkey production was so successful that in 1956 he served as president of the National Turkey federation, even presenting Thanksgiving turkeys to President Dwight Eisenhower, Vice President Richard Nixon, and Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson. The 1960s spelled the end of the Adams turkey farm, as the surrounding communities had grown in population, and irritated residents complained about noise and dust from the turkey operation. At the same time, costs increased and profits dropped. The ranch was sold and Cedar Hills was built on the land. The town faced problems that many small towns face, as at the time of incorporation, there were only thirty-one households. Residents and city officials weighed the pros and cons of various costs, and initially voted down resolutions on a town hall and fire houses. They did create an animal control system, but then immediately terminated it. Citizens and leaders also grappled over issues such as burning laws and sledding locations. Cedar Hills is quite a different town today as it grew rapidly starting in the 1990s. The population increased 174% from 1990 to 1997 (up to 1,340), and the town now has over 10,000 residents. Growth has slowed since then, and Cedar Hills is one of the slower growing towns in Utah county, but it is one of the most densely populated. The town provides various public services and events, including city breakfasts, a city celebration, and Christmas programs.

MAYOR MANN THIS NOVEMBER, RESIDENTS OF ALPINE, AMERICAN FORK, CEDAR HILLS, AND HIGHLAND will have the opportunity to determine who will represent them as mayor and who will fill two city council seats (three in the case of Alpine). Candidates for these offices are asking for the privilege to spend five to twenty or more hours a week, for the next four years, serving the residents of their city. They will make decisions that affect us today and years into the future. Depending on the city, council members will make decisions on budgetary expenses of $40M to $80+M during their term of office. They will vote on zoning, roads, public safety, sewer, water, etc. Mayors can influence these decisions and impact how they are implemented. In short, their actions affect us on a daily basis. Let me offer a few thoughts on identifying candidates who will serve our communities well: • They need to be someone whose judgment you can trust. Can they set aside self-interest when they vote? A council member will vote over 500 times during a four-year term. As the chief executive officer a mayor regularly makes decisions affecting how policies are executed. • Elected officials make decisions on issues in areas where they are not experts. Look for someone who likes to learn, will listen to multiple points of view, and can update their opinion as they learn more about an issue. • Council members often don’t agree with each other, but need to work together. Can a candidate disagree without being disagreeable? Are they able to effectively debate issues? Can they compromise when that is needed? Residents will have strong opinions on issues. They are occasionally unkind to those who don’t agree. Showing civility in the face of incivility tends to de-escalate issues and helps take emotion out of decisions. Look for those who are gracious when others are not. • Doing the right thing in the wrong way can generate a lot of negativity and is often worse than doing nothing. The “wrong way” usually means making big decisions in a way that is perceived to be non-transparent. • Candidates that are patient and persistent will be able to move the ball forward on big issues. Is there a perfect candidate? No. Are there candidates who are perfectly capable of doing an excellent job? Absolutely! Please take the time to get to know those who are running and support those you believe will be effective public servants over the next four years. ROD MANN Highland Mayor

a history of HIGHLAND adapted from citytowninfo.com and highlandcity.org

I

t is said that the city of Highland was named by Alexander Adamson, who had come to American Fork from Scotland. The area reminded him of the Scottish Highlands and therefore he named the place Highland.

According to Homestead affidavits, the first homes were built by James Pullen in June, 1870 then Hannah Briggs in April, 1871. John Pool, who has always been credited with building the first home, built his and moved into it in May, 1873. His home was located at about 5860 W 10620 N and there is, close by, a small cemetery containing the graves of five of his children. By the turn of the century there were probably twenty-five homes in Highland. The city of Highland was officially established in 1977. This was followed by the first city council’s swearing in. The first elected officials started to work in 1977. The community became a third class city in 1979 after the signing of a proclamation by Governor Scott Matheson. Highland has grown at a steady but slow pace over the years. It has a current population of over 19,000 residents. The city has a wonderful library and hosts several events such as an Easter egg hunt, city celebration, and Christmas programs.

TIMOTHY HOLLEY

As a lifelong resident advocate of American Fork City, I now have the fortune of watching all eight of my grandchildren grow up here. I understand the pulse of this community and always look to build consensus in all that I do to enrich it. It is very humbling to help lead this city in times of both prosperity and uncertainty. The greatest asset we have in our city lies within its residents. I value my time as Mayor, meeting our wonderful citizens and yearning to understand and address their concerns. I pledge to continue giving all my effort in leading this city through the unique challenges we face both today and in the future. I place a high priority on critical infrastructure such as roads, water, parks and trails and firmly believe that local government has the greatest impact on our residents. We are uniquely positioned as the Hub of so many wonderful amenities which allow biking, hiking, boating and other activities within minutes. I will continue to promote our strengths and make American Fork City a great place to live, work, and play. I personally want to thank you for your continued support in doing so.

Husband. Small business owner. MBA. Marine. Conservative. Optimist. Dog dad. Ever since I came to Utah with my family I knew there was something special about this place. I have been blessed to live and work in many locations from Georgia to Hawaii, Australia to Afghanistan. Throughout that time I have always come back to Utah as my home. It is where I decided to start a business. It is where I decided to start a family. It is where I have planted my roots. I have many years of experience leading Marines at various levels, working with senior leaders in organizations helping them solve problems, starting and managing a business through a once in a lifetime pandemic, and volunteering in my local community. I know that the greatest impact is made at the local level and I know that as a community working together we can achieve anything we set our minds to. No problem is too hard to overcome. I am an extremely energetic and active person who loves all things sports (currently jiu jitsu) and outdoors. I love Utah for its natural beauty and you can usually find me in the mountains no matter the season.

Mayoral Candidates GARY COOPER

CARLA MERRILL

I love Alpine. I’m grateful to the residents who voted for me and got me through the primary election. I would like to earn your vote. My wife, April, and I settled in Alpine in 2001. April and I have raised our 4 children here and enjoy having 2 grandchildren now too. I’ve had a lot of exposure to the issues facing our city over 20 years, and believe it is important to be actively involved and serve Alpine constituents to keep our city great! I believe in listening, I will let you have time as citizens to speak. I believe in limited government and we are here just to protect your individual rights. I believe in being fair and balanced, using common sense. I’ll serve Alpine’s interests only. I’d love to see the great things about our city continue on into the future. Living in Alpine provides such an amazing quality of life, and keeping it that way is a top priority.

I am running for Mayor of this amazing city because of my passion in maintaining the quaint, smalltown feeling. I want to ensure that we thoughtfully approach the challenges of extensive growth while balancing our limited resources and protect our parks, trails and open space. We fell in love with the community when we moved here in 1999. I feel compelled to give back to the community that has given so much to us. I have enjoyed serving in many different areas:

• Alpine Days • Westfield, Timberline, & LPHS School Community Council

My service record and passion for family and community, along with my professional background in corporate business development and customer service, have taught me to listen and consider all sides of an issue before making a decision. As mayor of Alpine, I will proactively plan growth and protect our open spaces. I would appreciate your vote.

City Council Candidates (2 year seat) ETHAN ALLEN

JESSICA SMUIN

After graduating in business from BYU, my wife Kathryn and I moved to Alpine 30 years ago and have raised our family in this beautiful city. As a local business owner, I have learned to adapt and transform throughout numerous challenges and disruptions. For three consecutive decades under my leadership, Allen’s Camera has never missed making payroll for my employees. I am committed to preserving what makes this city so special. As a member of the Alpine City Planning Commission, I’ve seen an increasing number of homes and accessory buildings expand their dimensions. We must work harder to ensure that existing views are protected. I will be tireless in the pursuit of preserving and enhancing your quality of life. I possess the requisite preparation, experience and capacity to serve you on the city council. I will remember our heritage and prepare Alpine for an even better future. I pledge to be prepared, available and diligent in your service. I would be very appreciative of your support!

My first visit to Alpine was in the spring of 2006. My family immediately fell in love with the peaceful atmosphere and breathtaking views. I commit to preserving Alpine’s heritage and protecting our natural resources. I understand the invaluable and irreplaceable asset of our hillsides, trails, parks and open spaces. They must be protected. I will continue to prioritize the current needs of residents over the future demands of growth and collaborate, listen and represent your voice as our community enters the final stages of development. I will continue to refine our master plan and ordinances to protect our mountain views, maintain low density development and increase citizen involvement. My experiences have prepared me to represent you today.

I will be planning for the future and protecting demands on water, infrastructure, open space and hillsides. I will continue voting to preserve the hometown atmosphere we all love and to keep a legacy for the future.

City Council Candidates (4 year seat) ED BUSH

KELLI B. LAW

My late wife, Judy, and I moved to Alpine over five years ago, shortly after my retirement, because of its sense of community and its unmatched beauty. I am a retired executive vice president of the Northrop Grumman Corporation with graduate degrees in physics and electrical engineering. I love Alpine, and to help everyone appreciate it more, I created and maintain the Alpine Nature Center website, www.alpinenaturecenter.org. Its purpose is to connect our residents with the surrounding environment. I have always had a strong desire to give back to my community after retirement, and as part of this commitment I have served on the Alpine Planning Commission. In this position, I have helped preserve the beauty of Alpine through focusing on planning and associated ordinances that allow Alpine to prosper by protecting property values and ensuring responsible development. With my executive experience, knowledge, and skills I will serve the citizens of Alpine on the City Council by establishing fiscal priorities that provide needed services and amenities that will continue to make Alpine a great place to live.

Our family moved to Alpine 8 years ago and I have loved serving in the community and getting to know so many of Alpine’s wonderful people. Out of necessity, I became heavily involved in successfully leading a group of citizens on a particular issue facing the city. Because of this experience I felt it a duty to get involved and run for city council. I believe it is important to plan our growth, while protecting our small-town feel, our open spaces, and our mountain sides. I believe property owners have rights under state law and under city code. I am in favor of ensuring the city code is written in such a way that it protects our city and serves the balance of the community and the growth that may occur. I will be a responsible steward of our resources and do my best to serve the people of Alpine. I would very much appreciate your vote.

JASON THELIN Email: jasonthelin@yahoo.com

I’ve lived in Alpine for 21 years and have watched 5 children attend Westfield and Alpine elementary, Timberline Jr. High, and Lone Peak High School. I feel grateful to live in this community and am constantly amazed by the wonderful people and surrounding beauty. Alpine has great employees and is a well-run city but resident involvement is critical. I have served the community in many ways including: • Alpine’s City Council for 4 years • Alpine’s Planning Commission for 12 years • Lone Peak Public Safety Board Member • Alpine Day’s Chairman (multiple times) and also led individual events • Alpine Elementary substitute teacher Over the last 16 years, I fought to protect our open spaces and resident access to mountain wildlands. I know that decisions now will affect future generations. I helped with the planning/creation of Creekside Park and other trail systems and am opposed to any sale of our open spaces. Other critical issues include traffic and street safety, providing support to our police and fire departments, proactively planning for growth, and treating residents fairly within the city ordinances.

I am Denise Andersen, and I am running for the office of Mayor of the City of Cedar Hills. I have been serving as mayor since January 2021, when I was appointed to fill Mayor Rees’ open seat. Before serving as mayor, I served on the city council from June 2017 to January 2021. I have served on various committees as a council member, including the Central Utah 911 Board and the Utah Lake Commission. I have loved being involved in the positive growth and development that has occurred in the city over the past several years. Our commercial zone is coming along, and our golf course has an excellent reputation throughout the area. But mostly, I have enjoyed getting to know more residents and making new friends. My husband Mark and I moved to Cedar Hills in 1992, and have raised our 6 kids here. These deep roots are what make me so dedicated to the future of this great city. In serving I have seen firsthand the stability of the city, and its ability to continue to grow stronger through community every year. I want to be a part of that growth by continuing to serve as your mayor.

City Council Candidates LAURA ELLISON

TYLER BROCIOUS

ALEXANDRA MCEWEN

Hello! My name is Laura Ellison, and I am the newest member on the Cedar Hills City Council. I was appointed in February of this year, and I hope to be able to continue serving the community in this capacity. I have more than 16 years of experience in public service with 14 of those years on the FISD School Board in Frisco, TX. I served as board secretary for 7 years and stood firm on fiscal responsibility. I worked on many sub-committees such as long-range planning, curriculum, zoning, transportation, policy and more. During my tenure I helped oversee a $450+ million budget, helped build 55 schools and worked with the Frisco City Council and Mayor on zoning and land issues to help manage the fastgrowing city. I believe that honesty, transparency, and integrity are vital in public service. My husband Nate and I have been married for 31 years and we are both BYU graduates. We have 4 wonderful children with our youngest still living at home. We have lived in Cedar Hills for 9 years and have loved every minute of it. I would appreciate your vote and support in this upcoming election. Thank you.

I am running to be a member of Cedar Hills City Council. Cedar Hills is a fantastic community with beautiful landscapes and wonderful people. My family moved here in 2018 and I was instantly impressed with the community. We want to continue building a community that we are proud to raise our children in. I am data driven to find solutions to problems. I am a software engineer, and in my career, I regularly use user analytic data to help prioritize issues. This is the first time I’ve run for office, and I do not have any close friends in any elected position, so I can bring a new perspective to ideas on how to get the community's voice heard. It is my desire to be a resource to the community. I believe an elected representative’s only focus should be voicing the concerns and opinions of the voters. I look forward to the opportunity to serve this city. Cedar Hills is an amazing community, and I hope to be your voice throughout my service.

My Bachelor's degree is in business, finance from California State University, Fresno, where I graduated Summa Cum Laude. I'm from a family of property developers and real estate planners. In the early 1900’s, my great grandpa bought 30 acres of land in rural California, which he and my grandparents developed into a little town called Prather. This town is where I was raised, and where my grandparents lived their whole lives. As you can imagine, I have a soft spot for small towns and community development. I run a successful Real Estate Business with my husband Mike, where we focus on being a resource for our community. We give back to our local community as much as we can, and love planning community events. I feel my knowledge of real estate and property development, and commitment to serve my community qualify me to be on the council. I find that in most things in life, goodness is found in the middle of the extremes. I value fiscal responsibility AND investing in our community to make it a desired place for everyone to live, and I don't see these values as opposing forces. Thank you for your consideration and support!

highland election

INFORMATION

Candidate profiles for Mayor and for Council Members are below. The Candidates are listed in order as per the 2021 master ballot position list as required by Utah State Code.

The 2021 Highland City General Election will be held on Tuesday, November 2, 2021. This year, the citizens of Highland will vote for Mayor and two Council Members. Additionally, there will be two opinion questions on the ballot: the Wimbleton Referendum and a Parks Tax. Please note that the candidates have been given the opportunity to submit these statements. Alpine City does not endorse these statements or guarantee their truth or accuracy. The statements reflect the candidates’ view and opinions and not the city’s position.

Parks Tax

On Tuesday, August 3, the City Council voted to place a Parks Tax on the 2021 Municipal Ballot. If approved by voters, the tax would be a 0.1% sales tax and the funds collected could only be spent on recreation facilities such as parks. The sales tax rate means $0.01 would be collected for every $10 spent.

Wimbleton Referendum

On December 3, 2019, City Council approved the Open Space Disposal and Removal of Neighborhood Trails in the Wimbleton Subdivision. On December 10, 2019, citizens of Highland City filed a referendum application challenging that law and ordered that it be referred to the voters for their approval at a future municipal election. In order for the law to be placed on the ballot, sponsors were required to collect 1,183 valid signatures. The sponsors collected more than the required number of signatures and as such the item will be placed on the 2021 Municipal Election ballot. Prior to the election, the City will produce a Voter Information Pamphlet with more information that will be distributed to all registered voters.

My wife and I have been Highland residents for 28 years, and we have raised our four children in this great city. I have served the last 3 1/2 years as a member of the Highland City Council. I have started and managed several companies, ranging from manufacturing to commercial real estate. I have learned how a careful, fiscally conservative budget can be balanced with a well-informed, visionary approach, leading to a successful and sustainable future. I will bring this experience while addressing current city issues and focusing on the debt Highland City has accumulated. Our city is family-focused with a vision of open space and trails. I want to keep these values that have led our city to prosperity. For these values to be maintained, we need a Mayor and City Council dedicated to being careful, empathetic listeners. I have done this while serving as a member of the Highland City Council by responding to phone calls, emails and listening to residents. I have always defended our city’s long term and short-term interests. I'm dedicated to keeping Highland City's open space feeling, having well-trained public safety, and promise to listen, gather information, and act carefully.

City Council Candidates SARAH D. PETERSEN

JERRY ABBOTT

SCOTT L. SMITH

Throughout my life I have felt a deep desire to participate in the political engagements of our country. I have been active in my local communities in caucuses and as a State Delegate. In pondering how to best serve my community, I have decided to run for Highland City Council. I am committed to the city of Highland and its residents. I am a registered nurse with a master’s degree in Administration. I have led administrative departments in large healthcare systems and currently work for a tech company as the Director of Care Operations. My experience has provided me the insight to thoughtful growth, maintaining the strengths of our community and providing a voice for the people. I am committed, experienced, and dedicated to listening to the residents. Throughout my career and while raising my seven children I have proven my ability to lead with compassion, integrity and intelligence. I am passionate about serving others and building on the legacy of strong families, neighborhoods, and communities here in Highland. I look forward to serving the residents of Highland.

My wife Frankie and I fell in love with Highland when we were looking for a small town to raise our four children twelve years ago, and have lived in the Bull River area ever since. I am currently serving as Chairman of the Planning Commission where I have been for the past 3+ years. In this capacity I have utilized my decades of building, developing and negotiation experience to help ensure the integrity of Highland. I have extensive experience working with cities in finding ways to keep their small town feel. I want to protect our brand that has created a premium to our resident’s property values and way of life. I have seen first hand how other cities like Highland, in their final stages of development, can buckle under pressure by developers and government officials, leading to detrimental decisions that ruined their brand and way of life. I will use my experience to preserve and strengthen Highland’s values & character, improve roads, trails, open space, parks and governing codes. I will help ensure we do not trip at the goal line.

My wife, Catherine, and I have lived in Highland for over 32 years, and we are proud to call ourselves Highlanders! We raised our five children here, and I am a practicing family physician. While serving on the City Council, I have also served on several local Governing Boards. Why am I running? 1. I want to continue to champion Highland values: a family-oriented community with zoning that promotes lower-density housing, open-space, and a genuine rural feel. A small, vibrant commercial district, well-maintained parks and trails, a public library, and well-run events are an important part of our community. 2. Highland has the reputation as a low-tax, efficiently run City. I will continue to vote as a fiscal conservative! 3. I will fight to protect the boundaries of Highland from annexation by other cities. 4. In a world of political divisiveness, I have learned the importance of civility and good humor. 5. I will continue to be an independent voice on the Council preventing “group think” while examining different viewpoints. 6. I have been a strong advocate for resolving openspace neighborhood concerns.

COLBY GIBSON

Email: ElectColbyGibson@gmail.com

At the age of 4, my family moved to Highland. I have lived in four different neighborhoods within the city for nearly 40 years. Highland is home. I’ve seen it grow from ~3,000 to ~20,000 today! Highland City is the only city Alicia, my wife of 25 years, and I have ever considered raising our 4 daughters and 1 son. I understand what has made Highland so appealing! Primary governing powers should reside in the family. Multiple families make up Highland City – and the Highland government’s primary role is to support Highland families! Counties support cities, States support Counties and at the very top (with the least governing power) is the Federal government. I am running for Highland City Council to protect our families from all government overreach. Over the years I’ve attended countless Highland City Council meetings, starting with meetings as a young Cub Scout. I am passionate about what happens in our community, love our amazing State, and am grateful to live in the greatest country in the world! I’m a passionate debater and promise to come to each meeting well-researched with an understanding that nobody goes to government for greater efficiency but rather out of necessity.

Third Doses Now Recommended for Immunocompromised Patients

| AMERICAN FORK & LONE PEAK CONNECTION | Fall 2021 | connectionmagazinesut.com

2_ChooseGet_VerticalAd.indd 1

9/28/2021 8:49:50 AM

A conversation with Edward Stenehjem, MD – Infectious Disease, Intermountain Healthcare Why is it important for immunocompromised people to receive a third dose of vaccine? Immunocompromised patients don’t respond as vigorously to the vaccine as somebody who is not immunocompromised. A third dose increases the likelihood of generating an antibody response, which we suspect is going to make the vaccine efficacy better. That’s the reason why a third shot is recommended for immunocompromised patients. If you are immunocompromised, either on certain immunosuppressive medications, have advanced or untreated HIV, are receiving cancer chemotherapies, or are a transplant patient, you can go to any of our community vaccine sites and get a third dose. We highly recommend that people do that. Go on Vaccines.gov and find a local place that will offer vaccines. Don’t mix and match vaccine types. If you got Pfizer, get a third shot of Pfizer. If you got Moderna, get a third shot of Moderna. Sometimes specialists who care for immunocompromised patients may help recommend the right timing for vaccination; however, there are rarely any circumstances when vaccination would not be recommended in immunocompromised patients. For those who haven’t yet received first and second doses, we strongly encourage you to start the initial series of vaccinations. What are the recommendations for those who are immunocompromised and received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine? The FDA came out and did not recommend a second shot. The reason they didn’t do that is that there’s no data on mixing and matching with a J&J vaccine. We should have data on that mixing and matching, especially with J&J, in the next few weeks. I highly expect that we will have a recommendation on those that received J&J in the coming weeks about what that second dose would look like. At this point, sit tight and continue to practice those public health measures: masking, socially distancing, washing your


hands. We need to do that regardless of vaccine status, but those J&J immunocompromised patients likely will be getting a second dose in the coming weeks. We just have to wait on some of the data. When will a third dose be available for the general public? Health officials around the world have been investigating the potential need for an additional dose of COVID vaccine for the general population, but to date we have heard no guidance for U.S. healthcare providers. At Intermountain, we continue to focus on helping individuals receive the first and second dose of the COVID vaccine – and most recently a third dose in the primary series for those that are immunocompromised – and would encourage anyone with questions to talk to their healthcare provider. The comments about potential plans of an additional dose at the federal level demonstrate that the vaccine is being very closely monitored, both for safety and effectiveness. The combination of vaccination with masking, social distancing, and staying home when sick is our best defense against this disease.

We don’t know whether or not that’s protective against Delta. The studies that we do have show that prior infection with a positive antibody response is protective for a period of time, but we just haven’t had the studies go long enough to say for how long. What we do know is that people who get vaccinated definitely have protection against Delta. That is the safest method. We highly recommend getting vaccinated, even with a prior history of COVID-19.

Why do we even need this third dose for the general public? What we’re seeing is this step down in vaccine effectiveness over these past couple months, likely due to a combination of waning immunity and the Delta variant. We know from previous vaccine studies that giving another dose will boost your immune response. That’s the reason.

Is COVID-19 going to continue to circulate forever? Currently, COVID-19 is here to stay. I don’t anticipate this going away completely. We’re going to have to learn how to vaccinate appropriately, likely on a seasonal basis matching the most common viral strains. That can be done, like with the flu.

Why do you need the vaccine if you’ve COVID before and have the antibodies? The recommendation is that even if you’ve had COVID-19, get the vaccine. We don’t know how long you’ll be immune after having had it.

As the situation changes weekly, and even daily, follow Intermountain Healthcare on Facebook to stay up to date.

a new super intendent for ALPINE SCHOOL DISTRICT

SUPERINTENDENT I AM HUMBLED AND EXCITED to begin my service as superintendent and work collaboratively with our families, businesses and communities as we partner in the education of the students of Alpine School District. I have personally experienced and have strong beliefs and commitment to the transformative power of public education for individuals, families and communities. Our district theme for this year is “Focus on What Matters Most— Priorities, People and Processes”. This is especially timely as we strive to educate all students in safe and engaging learning environments. Just like other organizations, a school district benefits from a clear and focused approach. In preparing for this year, I reviewed several leadership and organizational behavior books to guide our work as a district in determining a clear focus and developing a strategic plan. The following books proved especially beneficial: Start with Why by Simon Sinek, Good to Great by Jim Collins, Essentialism by Greg McKeown, Nuance by Michael Fullan, and Atomic Habits by James Clear. From these resources, I developed a four-framed model for making significant improvement in our teams, schools and as an organization. We focus on what matters most by clarifying why we do what we do, fine-tuning our focus on priorities, ritualizing the routines that lead to the achievement of our priorities, and harnessing our hearts and the hearts of those we work with for full engagement in the work. This model can be used individually, at a team, class or family level, or within an organization or a full school community. As a district this year, we will collaboratively determine the priorities and processes of Alpine School District that lead to high levels of learning for every student. This will culminate in the adoption of a five-year strategic plan. We look forward to this process and the product that will result. I invite you to focus on what matters most to you individually, as a team, or as an entire organization. What priorities, people and processes should you focus on to achieve what matters most to you and your organization? DR. SHANE FRANSWORTH Superintendent—Alpine School District
