Correction

I just received a phone call from Craig Thomas regarding the Adisory news release. There was a major misunderstanding... Here is the corrected information:

An advisory released yesterday indicated that a contractor had been working throughout West Valley City and was misrepresenting the fact that they were working with the blessing of the City.

The contractor in question has been contacted, and City officials realize that this was a case of miscommunication between the residents involved. The contractor mentioned, Amen Paving, has not misrepresented themselves in any way.

Residents are still encouraged to call the City with any concerns or questions they may have about contractors, and to verify that anyone representing themselves on behalf of the City is legitimate.

Any questions may be directed to Aaron Crim at 801-963-3466 or 801-232-0466.

Thank you,

Aaron Crim
Director of Public Relations


While this advisory ended as false alarm, it is a good reminder for our residents to be very cautious in who they speak with at their door and allow into their homes. Please find attached a handout that can serve as a reminder to beware of offers that seem too good to be true. As always, your work is greatly appreciated! Have a great weekend.

*I personally meant no harm to this individual at this company. I use this blog as a way to communicate with residents throughout the neighborhood.

Please, Slow Down!

FYI

FYI

We've had some home invasions on High Bluff Drive... Please take a moment to make sure your doors are locked, your porch light is on & that your valuables are removed from your cars. Also, take a moment to look out your windows before you go to bed or when you wake up at night, & see if there is anything suspicious or out of place. If you do, please contact the police when necessary. If it is a crime in progress, call 911. If you see something suspicious call

840-4000, which is the non-emergency phone number.

It's Official...

Wakefield, Laurel Canyon & High Bluff

WILL be getting Speed Bumps!

Wahoooooooooooooooooo!

I got the call from Erik Brondum telling me it's a go! I asked if he knows a time frame & he said that they will definitely be in before school starts in the fall. Also, he'll be meeting with Mrs. Koji, the Diamond Ridge Principal today to discuss the "safe routes to school" program.

I'll let you know more information as it comes...

Keeping an eye out...

Most of you have heard that one of our residents had their home broken into on Friday, Feb 6th. The person who broke in, went through the backyard & broke into the sliding glass door. This is just a good reminder that we can all just keep an eye out for each other. Look out your blinds, be aware of your neighbor's cars...so that you'll notice when something is different, if you see someone walking around the side yard & you don't recognize them...call the police, or call your neighbor. I will make sure that our Mobile Patrol is more consistent... It will take all of us looking out for each other to keep our neighborhood safe!
