<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Ogden Valley Manifesto 2.0: A warning regarding over-the-top unsustainable development schemes</strong></div>

Dear Neighbors in Ogden Valley,<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Thirty years ago I bought property in Ogden Valley and have lived on the South Fork for a couple of decades. I served as chair of our South Fork Township Planning Commission during the run up to the Olympics, and later as a “stakeholder” when the Recreation Element of our General Plan and the Snowbasin Master Plans were developed. These experiences taught me two things. First, growth and development in the Valley is inevitable; we have an attractive place and property rights exist that will triple or quadruple housing units and people in the fairly near future. Second, if we do this right, the Valley will remain an attractive place to live, visit, recreate and invest; everybody wins. But there are also lots of ways to mess this up—especially during a period of rapid development—and most everybody loses if we do.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />For the last decade I have led the monthly GEM Committee discussions (<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">G</strong>rowth <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">E</strong>xcellence <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">M</strong>andate), a come-one, come-all group of Valley people who attend countless government and private meetings as Valley growth issues emerge. To the GEM folk, growing with excellence means doing what we can to minimize the impact development has on residents while also doing what we can to remain an attractive place to live and visit. We pursue following our <a href="http://www.webercountyutah.gov/planning/documents/Ogden%20Valley%20General%20Plan%202016%20reduced%20size.pdf" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #bc360a; text-decoration-line: none;">General Plan</a>, a roadmap for enhancing what makes the Valley great while minimizing the negative consequences of growth—haphazard development, bankruptcies and overloading our infrastructure. More importantly, our General Plan clearly says we don’t want to lose what we have that makes our Valley a great place to live, recreate, and invest. I don’t think it news to most that our Plan intends to preserve our rural feel of agriculture, open space, dark skies, clean air, and majestic views. And our Plan also intends to retain our appeal to destination recreation visitors, knowing fully that congestion, pollution, and free-for-all development will kill the goose that is now laying our golden eggs. Two simple sentences in the General Plan describe our vision for how we intend to walk this tightrope: <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">“Land uses in Ogden Valley should complement, not overwhelm or compete with, the rural character of the Valley…</em>” and “<em style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Ogden Valley community desires responsible and sustainable growth while conserving the natural and social character of Ogden Valley.</em>” The rest of the Plan provides guidance on how to ensure our vision remains the reality.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
It seems like about every ten years a development scheme comes along that would overwhelm us. When previous owners of Powder Mountain proposed building a resort the size of Brigham City on top of the mountain, we fought for a better outcome. We succeeded because Valley residents got involved, learned the facts, and provided input at every opportunity. Back then I published a <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Manifesto</em>, putting Powder Mountain developers on notice that we expect resort expansion plans to <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">improve </em>the Valley, <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">not diminish</em> it. Since then we have adopted a new <a href="http://www.webercountyutah.gov/planning/documents/Ogden%20Valley%20General%20Plan%202016%20reduced%20size.pdf" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #bc360a; text-decoration-line: none;">General Plan</a> that pretty much says the same thing. We also have improved ordinances and approval processes to support it. Even so, we need to rally and focus our community voice to get the best outcome we can when something like the Nordic Valley mega proposal comes along. This inspired me to develop an Ogden Valley Manifesto 2.0; thanks to everyone who helped in its development<em style="box-sizing: border-box;">.</em></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
But first, please try to get your head around the magnitude and against-all-odds ideas of the Nordic expansion proposal that has now been submitted to the Forest Service for review and approval. The plan would leverage Nordic Valley from 140 acres on private land by developing facilities onto some 3,300 acres of roadless National Forest between Nordic Valley and North Ogden. The Nordic Valley <a href="https://nordicvalleyproject.com/nvr2018-mdp.pdp" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #bc360a; text-decoration-line: none;">Plans for Expansion</a> describes…</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">1 –</strong> …expanding lift capacity from 1,030 to 11,380 guests. This would be more than the guests currently hosted by Snowbasin, Powder Mountain and Nordic Valley combined, resulting in a doubling of current users; it would be a resort with roughly the same number of guests Park City/Canyons hosts today.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">2 –</strong> …expanding parking on the Eden side from 404 vehicles to 3,845. This means an additional 7,700 vehicles a day in and out of the resort on our county roads; compare this to 8,500 vehicles now traversing Ogden Canyon on a weekend winter day.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">3 –</strong> …expanding snowmaking from 11 million gallons on 31 acres to 223 million gallons on 450 acres. The idea is to pump water from Pineview and “consume” only 28% of what is pumped; the rest returns to Pineview as runoff. Still, consumption at 28% is 191 acre feet.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">4 –</strong> …expanding from 5,093 to 166,500 square feet of non-housing buildings, expanding from 592 restaurant seating capacity to 12,000, and increasing electricity consumption from 1.5 megawatts to 15.5 megawatts.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">5 –</strong>….cutting 20+ miles of roads into a roadless section of National Forest to service 13 new lifts and 708 acres of ski runs with snowmaking. Much of this would occur in an area identified in the General Plan as some of our “most visible viewshed.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">6 –</strong> …converting our most accessible roadless National Forest, currently managed with watershed priority, into one of Utah’s largest resorts, and certainly Utah’s largest low altitude resort (the highest point being at the level of Snowbird/Alta parking lots).</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">7 –</strong> …allowing a resort larger than Snowbasin without a plan for handling culinary water, water rights, wastewater, runoff water, landslide, snow slide, wildlife, watershed, traffic, or guest housing. Granted, much of this is outside of Forest Service scope, but <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">all</em> will be big deals to the Valley if the project goes forward.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
If successful, the proposed expansion of Nordic Valley would about double the number of winter guests we now have across all our resorts on our very busiest days; they estimate about half would come from the Eden side. This project is so massive it could easily overwhelm Ogden Valley, especially when added to thousands more already expected when Snowbasin and Powder Mountain reach their already-approved capacity. With this in mind, we issue this manifesto as guidance to its developers.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Principle 1: Do no harm…the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
We expect any expansion of recreation resorts in Ogden Valley to proactively and effectively mitigate adverse impacts on Valley residents and environment. In order to understand and minimize impact, we expect full disclosure of expansion effects on Valley residents and natural assets; in particular, we expect a truthful and complete accounting of how expansion will impact water consumption, wastewater systems, runoff water and drainage, roads, and utilities, as well as landslide risk, snow slide risk, and risk to watersheds. We also expect honesty in how expansion will impact quality of life factors like noise, pollution, view sheds, animal habitat, housing, property values and taxes.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Principle 2: Be faithful to the General Plan…</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
We expect any expansion of recreation resorts in Ogden Valley to adhere to the vision, goals and principles of the Ogden Valley General Plan. One of our Plan goals supports the expansion of resorts: <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">“…to pursue Valley recreation expansion by working with resort developers.”</em> However, our plan also clearly states what we expect from recreation expansion. Here are a few: <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">“…to reduce the overall amount and impact of future land development in Ogden Valley,” “…to protect the Valley’s sense of openness and rural character,” “…to protect key viewsheds throughout the Valley,” and “…to balance the expansion of recreation areas and facilities with overused and saturated resources to maintain a high-quality recreation experience”</em> (that is, there will be less golden eggs in a congested place).</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Principle 3: Play by the rules…</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
We expect any expansion of recreation resorts to adhere to Weber County planning rules and processes, and any expansion into our National Forest to adhere to Forest Service rules and processes. We expect a fair and thorough execution of the review and approval process without political intervention.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Principle 4: We demand full transparency…</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
We expect any public investment in expansion of recreation resorts (such as county-backed bonding or Community Development Agencies) to be minimal and to be highly visible to taxpayers, and with fully accounted costs to the public, including externalized costs or subsidies.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">Principle 5: Show us the numbers…</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
Prior to final approval, we expect any expansion of recreation resorts to provide the public with evidence that it is fiscally sound and will result in a quality product that can compete in the national and international recreation markets for the long haul.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">These principles </strong>reflect our rights as residents and citizens and are backed by federal, state and county law, not to mention common sense. We have a right to follow our General Plan and to enjoy the fruits of the property rights it describes. We have a right to fight for these rights.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #141412; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 24px;">
Adopting these principles will earn support from Valley residents; ignoring them or strong-arming will create decades of Valley animosity and resistance at every turn. I, for one, prefer the former option.</div>

<span class="s2" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 21.600000381469727px;">This decision by two of our county commissioners establishes an important and long-reaching policy, and it was created in such a blatant and arrogant way that I believe it fuels the growing distrust and cynicism regarding our local government. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Tuesday, August 30, 2016</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Weber County Commission Chambers</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">10:00 am sharp</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 20.8267px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">After extensive work and input from the Ogden Valley Planning Commission, involved citizens, the Planning Staff, Consultants Logan Simpson Design, and the County Commission, the hearing will be held Tuesday.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 20.8267px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 20.8267px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Unfortunately, the three person County Commission, none of whom live in Ogden Valley, have changed and softened some of the important areas of the proposed plan.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 20.8267px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>

<ul style="line-height: 21.3px; margin: 0px 0px 20px 1em; padding: 0px 0px 0px 1em;">
<li style="line-height: 21.3px; margin: 0px 0px 3px;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Most of the "wills" were changed to "shoulds"</span></li>
<li style="line-height: 21.3px; margin: 0px 0px 3px;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The "no bonus density" was changed to a less committed idea that we made need them to make TDR work.</span></li>
<li style="line-height: 21.3px; margin: 0px 0px 3px;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The "no central sewer" was changed to language encouraging a central sewer and water system.</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

The Ogden Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, Weber Pathways, and the Ogden Valley invites the public to join us for the 9nd annual Ogden, Ogden Valley Weeds Days, and National Trails Day. The public is invited to participate in the community wide event in celebration of National Trails Day. The ongoing efforts offer fun, exercise, a chance to meet new people as well as give back to the local community!
The goal of this project is to help reduce and eradicate invasive weeds threatening the native plant community of the local area. The project areas encompasses lands bounded by the Forest Service, Weber County on the Mt. Ogden front, and Ogden Valley area. Invasive weed species threaten the ecological integrity and biological diversity of plant communities within the project area and have caused adverse impacts to recreation, wildlife and other important social and resource values.
Target weeds include, dyers woad, puncture vine, dalmation toadflax, myrtle spurge, leafy spurge, yellow starthistle, whitetop, burdock, and hounds tongue.
Control methods will include hand pulling and possible bagging. Forest Service crews will be using herbicides on-site.
Participants should wear protective clothing, including gloves and bring lots of drinking water. Some tools will be provided but it is recommended to bring your own shovels.
Please join the Ogden Ranger District, Weber Pathways, and Ogden Valley as we work to protect our land by preventing the spread of noxious weeds in Weber County.
For more information, contact Lisa Thompson, Volunteer and Partnership Coordinator, Ogden Ranger District, (801) 458-1704 or Rod Kramer, Outreach Coordinator, Weber Pathways (801) 393-2304.

Project Overview</h1>
<div align="left" style="color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1.3em; padding: 0px; unicode-bidi: embed; vertical-align: baseline;">
UDOT is conducting a Transportation Study in Ogden Canyon. The Transportation Commission asked UDOT to conduct the study and look at all modes of transportation in the canyon. The study analysis includes existing and future safety concerns, traffic volumes, resident needs, economic needs, multi-modal uses (biking, truck traffic, pedestrian, transit, etc.), recreational uses, and environmental and geotechnical/geologic concerns.</div>
<div align="left" style="color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1.3em; padding: 0px; unicode-bidi: embed; vertical-align: baseline;">
UDOT completed <strong style="vertical-align: baseline;">Phase I</strong> of the study in Spring 2015. The purpose of Phase I was to gather physical information and opinions and share that information in an interactive and transparent process to develop an understanding of the safety and mobility needs in the canyon.</div>
<div align="left" style="color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.5em; margin-bottom: 1.3em; padding: 0px; unicode-bidi: embed; vertical-align: baseline;">
In <strong style="vertical-align: baseline;">Phase II</strong>, the study team met more extensively with people and groups who care about Ogden Canyon. Three focus groups were formed and divided into categories: roadway, environmental, and active transportation/transit. These groups were made up of people who live, work, travel, and recreate in Ogden Canyon, as well as local agency and special interest group representatives. They were able to evaluate concepts and give input. In addition to the focus groups, representatives of local government and other agencies also participated in evaluating the concepts and giving feedback.</div>

EDEN — While it may not be a kumbaya moment, a recent agreement signed by<a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/research/stocks/private/snapshot.asp?privcapId=238627040" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #338972; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Summit Mountain Holding Group LLC</a> and area water companies signals significant progress in a battle that at times looked impossible to resolve.</div>

The water saga began in 2013 after Summit purchased 10,000 mountainside acres, along with the <a href="http://www.powdermountain.com/" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #338972; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Powder Mountain ski resort</a>, that straddles Weber and Cache counties. Along with that land purchase came 1,400 acre feet of water in Pineview Reservoir, and Summit hoped to tap 400 acre-feet via its newly-dug mountaintop Hidden Lake well. An acre-foot is the volume of a sheet of water one acre in area and one foot in depth.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
In April 2014, Summit applied to the Division of Water Rights for an exchange permit that would allow release of 400 acre-feet out of Pineview Reservoir to compensate water users in the valley for any diminished flows caused by the Hidden Lake well. In late July 2015 — after dueling hydrogeology studies and extensive legal fees — the State Engineer <a href="http://waterrights.utah.gov/docImport/0574/05747860.pdf" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #338972; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">OK’d Summit’s exchange request</a> with several conditions. Since that time, stakeholders have been negotiating an agreement that would satisfy all the parties.</div>

A new 88-page contract among Summit, Wolf Creek Irrigation Company, Bar B Ranch Inc., Eden Water Works Company, Middle Fork Irrigation Company, and Wolf Creek Water and Sewer Improvement District details several actions Summit must take to accommodate residents lower on the mountain. At the peak of animosity, several residents posted “Summit Sucks Water” signs in their yards and pastures to warn tourists of the unhappy relationship.</div>

Dee Staples, president of the Wolf Creek Irrigation Company, described the<a href="http://waterrights.utah.gov/docImport/0579/05796782.pdf" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #338972; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">agreement</a> as a “laborious, technical document.” While he voiced qualms about Summit’s development plans, Staples acknowledged that the contract terms “were as good as we could have hoped for.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
The four-phased Summit-Eden Powder Mountain project area spans 6,278 acres of property that in 2012 held a taxable value of about $875,062, <a href="http://www.standard.net/Business/2014/07/02/Weber-Commissioners-OK-tax-flow-to-Powder-Mountain-development-also-new-jail-fees.html" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #338972; line-height: inherit; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">according to a 2014 Weber County agreement</a>. The finished development could feature up to 1,000 single- and multi-family dwelling units plus 290,000 square feet of commercial space — including hotels, restaurants and lodges, that agreement said.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
“I am concerned that so many units have been approved to be built on top of Powder Mountain. I could accept fewer. And I think it is unwise to allow 400 acre-feet of water to be purchased in Pineview Reservoir, which is below our watershed, then to allow that water to be pumped from wells on top of the mountain, which is above our watershed,” Staples said. “I am troubled that a city will be built in the middle of some very sensitive wildlife habitat. These are factors that were approved by other institutions before we started negotiations.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
Given those conditions, Staples said they proceeded to negotiate the best deal they could get.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
“The end result is an agreement with which we are satisfied. None of the parties got everything they wanted,” Staples said. “However, we established a pathway going forward which will hopefully allow all parties to maintain established rights and to provide a means by which all parties can achieve success.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
Summit Executive Vice President Paul Strange hailed the collaborative effort that led to the successful dispute resolution.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
“Everybody was open to finding a way to live and work together,” Strange said. “We're very pleased, and we're looking forward to building homes as soon as the snow melts.”</div>

Mitigating the Hidden Lake well’s impact on Lefty Spring, a water source that provides significant flow to Wolf Creek, was a key part of the agreement. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
“Any interference would show up there first,” Staples said. “So we extracted an easement from Summit, and they will build a monitoring device at the mouth of the spring so we can access it, measure it and determine if and when interference occurs.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
Summit also agreed to pay Wolf Creek Irrigation Company $85,000 “to make a small dent in our attorney's fees,” Staples said, adding that those funds will be divided among the protesters.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
Staples said they divided Summit’s requested 400 acre-feet into two 200 acre-feet segments. And Summit agreed to mitigate interference by purchasing 15 shares in Wolf Creek Irrigation Company and build up to 20-acre-feet of water storage. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
Due to concerns from Eden Water Works and Bar B Ranch, Summit also relinquished at least one diversion point where future wells can be drilled.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; font-family: 'Open Sans', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.6; margin-bottom: 1.25rem; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
“They'll drill another well this summer,” Staples said. “They agreed to then go over to the Cache County side and look for the other 200-acre feet of water. There's a lot more water on the Cache side that will serve their purposes better.”</div>

I worked in Ogden for a number of years and for the past few years I have worked in the valley. My entire professional life has revolved around working in the community for the community. You will see from my resume that last year I developed a youth ski program at Powder Mtn. that brought 55 new season passes to Powder Mtn. Since Summit arrived in the valley I have also made a point of getting to know team members and would like to see this relationship between Weber county community and Summit community nurtured into a relationship that is defined by communication and action that benefit ALL that call this home. I hope I hear from you soon and thank you for your consideration.</em></div>

<em>During my professional career as an educator, I first served as a public school history teacher in New Jersey for 5 years before completing advanced degrees in the field of library science and educational technology. After teaching at James Madison University in Virginia for 28 years, I retired in 2000. In 2006 my wife and I decided to move to Eden where we could enjoy a very active outdoor lifestyle that included skiing, hiking, water sports, etc. Among the many volunteer activities we enjoy doing, has been our service for eight years as Utah AARP district coordinators responsible for developing and presenting activities for area members in Ogden, Weber and Morgan counties. In addition to serving in various ways with the Ogden Methodist Church's outreach to those in need, I also have a great interest in protecting the wildlife of our area, and enhancing the variety of cultural activities we offer to our local citizens. Without question, I consider my greatest moments and achievements in life to be my 49 years of marriage to my wife and the raising of our 4 adult children to become successful and contributing members of our great and cherished country. But none of this could have been done without the help and grace of my lord and savior, Jesus Christ and his Father.</em></div>

Moved to Montana for a few years doing this marketing stuff and in 2004 moved to Eden and bought a house, still doing marketing from home. And here I am.

I am extremely interested in rural/small town planning and the preservation of historical agricultural landscapes, buildings, and structures. The focus of my studies leading to a Historic Preservation Certificate was vernacular architecture and traditional building techniques. I also have a strong interest in handcrafts, community gardens, and historical agricultural methods and practices. I am a board member of the Ogden Valley Land Trust. Over a year ago my family moved to the Ogden Valley, drawn by the rural character, agricultural lifestyle, and the beauty of the historical and majestic landscapes of the area. I served on the Park City Parks and Recreation Board in the 1990’s during the acquisition of the iconic white “McPolin Farm” property. We were tasked with developing the initial plan and long term vision focusing on protecting and preserving the historic buildings while maintaining the integrity of the surrounding open space. Community input was critical to the success of this project. I thoroughly understand the responsibility and importance of preserving and sharing the iconic identity and soul of this majestic building and open spaces. I would be honored to serve on this committee as it synthesizes community desires and ideas to develop the long term vision and day to day use for this treasured community jewel.</em></div>

We have been property owners in the Ogden Valley for the past 35 years and have participated in the processes creating the 1998 Valley Master Plan, the subsequent Recreation Plan, the current re-do of the Master Plan, and multiple other issues related to land-use and planning in the Ogden Valley. I have recently retired after 40 years of practicing Family Medicine in the Ogden area and teaching Family Medicine and Wilderness Medicine at the University of Utah. For 20 years I was one of the physician advisors for the Snow Basin Ski Patrol. My wife and I live adjacent to the Wolf Barn Area, and our HOA owns the property along Wolf Creek contiguous to the area. We have a high level of interest in the future developments in the Ogden Valley and of that land in particular. I appreciate that Summit, as the owner of the Wolf Barn Area, is setting up a group to help plan how that land will be used. Being recently retired, I have the time, and will make the commitment, to work hard on that planning. I believe the land can be used in ways that would maintain past commitments made by Wolf Creek to keep it "open," further Summit's goals of being a good neighbor, and preserve much of the environmentally sensitive and wildlife-rich areas of the Wolf Barn property.</em></div>

Urban Planning is a course of study that I have identified as my next challenge and I am currently taking steps to enter the Master's program at the University of Utah. I continue to look for ways to learn about and be involved in the on going discussion concerning the well being of this valley.

In Phase II, the study team will meet more extensively with people and groups who care about Ogden Canyon. The study team will use information collected in Phase I to develop concepts that solve and mitigate controversy and that are feasible. Stakeholder groups made up of people who live, work, travel, and recreate in Ogden Canyon will be formed to evaluate these concepts and give input. Representatives of local government and other agencies will also participate in evaluating the concepts and giving feedback.</div>
