Leaders of the Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC) had the opportunity earlier this week to visit with all six members of Utah's delegation to Washington, D.C. The goal of the meetings was to discuss how the recently enacted Infrastructure Investments and Jobs Act will help Utah to continue to address the state's traffic congestion, air quality, and critical infrastructure needs. An association of elected officials, part of WFRC's mission is to develop and implement transportation systems across the Wasatch Front, and to secure funding to that end. The current chair of the WFRC is our own Mayor Jeff Silvestrini.

This month is an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of all African Americans, but especially members from our community. This celebration is important for our community because it is a celebration of diversity. It is a renewed chance to listen to, support, and unite with those around us—no matter the differences in thought, background, or ethnicity. In honor of Black History Month, I encourage each of you to get involved and to celebrate the diversity within Salt Lake County. Here are just a few ways: Learn about the continuing importance of Black History Month Support Black-owned businesses Donate to the Utah Black History Museum Read about 40 Unsung Heroes of Black History Check your assumptions and biases with I.D.E.A. training Be an ally to those around you, no matter the differences Diversity should be celebrated for the growth and beauty it brings. Show up and support events happening throughout the month. ---PAGE BREAK--- EMERGENCY CACHE PODS ARE NOW LOCATED IN THE MILLCREEK COMMUNITY COUNCIL AREA MILLCREEK. New emergency cache pods have been located into the Millcreek Community Council area. The one pictured above is at James Moss Elementary on 44th South and 5th East. The community council has been working for quite some time to place emergency cache pods in this area of Millcreek. Their work has paid off, and two cache pods have been installed. The community now needs supplies to fill the cache pods with items needed if and when an emergency arises. These caches will not contain food or water they will have items such as backboards and cribbing supplies that trained individuals can use to help other residents in need until emergency services can arrive on the scene. In the event of a large scale emergency, such services could take some time to arrive. The next very important phase will be to find residents interested in being trained to help in an emergency. The City will be holding CERT classes starting March 2nd at 6:00 pm at City Hall, 3330 South 1300 East. If you are interested in attending the classes or you are CERT trained and would like to register, please contact Andrew Clark, Millcreek Emergency Manager, at (801) 214- 2715, or [EMAIL REDACTED] Art at the Library Come enjoy Cara Jean Hall's paintings at the Millcreek Library (2266 E Evergreen Ave) throughout the month of February. Cara is a local artist who lives in Millcreek and is pursuing a career in public art and studio painting. She is also working with the KRCL 90.09 development team for the Community Radio and Art Access project. We are lucky to have her as part of our community. ---PAGE BREAK--- I love painting. Other things that I love include gardening, rusting paint on industrial metal objects, cranes, micro-expressions on people and animals, little wisps of steam that rise from tea, feeling the sun on the bottom of my feet, the smell of scotch tape, and dark comedy. As an artist, I try to capture these types of things in paintings. I never aim for photo realism because I’m more delighted by a painter’s interpretation and the influence they have on the subject matter. I aim to entertain myself with my paintings as well as the viewer and have recently set out to loosen up when I paint. The results are seen in my recent paintings that I call “Nature Abstracted”. The results are paintings that sample color from nature and present it with a combination of planned composition and happenstance. Call For Historic Preservation Volunteers from City Council District #1 MILLCREEK. Millcreek is forming a Historic Preservation Committee. We have had many great applications so far, however we are in need of a resident from City Council District #1 to represent that portion of Millcreek.

While more than two out of five (44%) of home heating fires involve space heaters, space heaters are involved in 86% of home heating fire deaths. If you are using a space heater to warm up, please be sure to plug all space heaters directly into a wall outlet (no extension cords or power strips) and always turn it off when leaving the room or going to bed. In addition: Keep anything that can burn, like bedding, clothing, and curtains, at least 3 feet away from your heater. Place space heaters on a solid, flat surface. Turn heaters off when you go to bed or leave the room. Make sure a recognized testing laboratory has tested your heater. Make sure your heater has an automatic shut-off, so if it tips over, it shuts off. ---PAGE BREAK--- Applications for the 2022 Utah Young Humanitarian Award are now available.
