Announcements PUBLIC MEETINGS City Council Mon.,4/25/2022 Work Meeting - 5:00pm Regular Meeting - 7pm City Hall, 3330 S 1300 E NEWS MILLCREEK COUNCIL TO APPOINT HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION MILLCREEK. Millcreek is establishing an Historic Preservation Commission for the City. The Commission will have a number of important roles, including documenting and celebrating our histories, identifying and registering sites on the National Register of Historic Sites, advising the community on the protection of cultural resources, ---PAGE BREAK--- Join virtually HERE See Agenda Below and working with the State Historic Preservation Office to preserve historic sites. The creation of an Historic Preservation Commission is the first step in making Millcreek a Certified Local Government, which makes us eligible to apply for federal grants for historic preservation, and will make available other incentives and tax benefits to promote the preservation of historic buildings and sites. In response to invitations made over the past several months through social media, at council meetings, and on the website, we received many more applications than we have seats on the Commission. As a community, we are fortunate there are so many residents with a passion for Millcreek's culture and history. On Monday, the City Council will consider the appointment of seven Millcreek residents to our new Historic Preservation Commission. Representative of each City Council District, the nominees are residents Andrea Maxfield, Emily Johnson, Molly Enos, Tiffany Hunter Greene, Ryan Lufkin, Kaye Donahoe, and Peter Brinton. Among these talented volunteers are an historian, an architect, a curator, a museum manager, and an environmental engineer. Together they will provide, as our ordinance requires, "a balanced representation in terms of geographic, professional, neighborhood, and community interests." The Historic Preservation Commission's first tasks will include engaging in a series of trainings, setting goals and objectives for the next few years, and establishing a schedule for public meetings. ---PAGE BREAK--- Millcreek Residents Spotlighted for their Recycling Efforts MILLCREEK. Millcreek was the Spotlight in the Wasatch Front Waste & Recycling District April 2022 Community Newsletter, which complimented our residents for doing a great job of recycling. Millcreek’s contamination rate this quarter was 18.87%, in comparison to the entire District’s contamination rate of 27.04%. What is recycling contamination? Every day the trucks collect recyclables and drop them off at a local sorting facility. However, nearly 20% of the material in the blue recycling bins is trash, like garbage bags, packaging plastics, wire and food. This contamination can jamming the sorting machines and cause huge delays. Food or liquid can contaminate otherwise clean materials, causing them to no longer be recyclable, rendering them trash. While the contamination rate has improved greatly, there are still areas of improvement. The largest contaminant in Millcreek is plastic packaging materials, like bubble wrap, Styrofoam, padded envelopes and plastic wrap. Please keep those items out of your blue cans. All plastic bags (grocery or garbage bags), plastic packaging and flimsy plastics can be recycled but NOT in the blue curbside recycling can. If it is plastic and you can ball it up in your fist, it is garbage if placed in the blue can. Many local grocery stores provide a plastic collection bin near the entrance of the building. Drop your plastics in one of these bins and the materials are then taken to the ---PAGE BREAK--- Renewlogy Plant to be recycled. Keep up the good work Millcreek! If you need additional or replacement cans, visit the Wasatch Front Waste & Recycling District website. Check out this time-lapse video of the construction happening at the new City Hall and Millcreek Common In the foreground, Millcreek Common is taking shape, with pavers being laid, lights being installed and trees being planted. Get ready to lace up your roller skates and enjoy the skating loop beginning in early June. In the background, dirt is being moved to begin the construction of the new City Hall, which will include a ground floor marketplace and a community room with a fantastic view on the top floor. ---PAGE BREAK--- HEADS UP!! The Salt Lake Marathon is taking place tomorrow. Plan your Saturday travels accordingly. ---PAGE BREAK--- ---PAGE BREAK--- EASTBOUND TRAVEL LANES ON I-80 TO SHIFT I-80 BY MILLCREEK. Depending on weather, the eastbound I-80 travel lanes between 17th and 23rd East will shift this week, maybe as early as Sunday, to the new concrete that has been placed in the median. Watch out for uneven pavement and drainage grates. Definitely reduce your speed—construction workers and fellow travelers are people and most have families. Be careful out there. ---PAGE BREAK--- MILLCREEK. We had a very successful vaccination clinic on April 5th, with 45 residents getting their fourth COVID-19 shot.
