November 2007

November was a banner month for me, if not for my blog.

Here are November's accomplishments:

>>The City Council, responding to a strong recommendation from the Beautification and Shade Tree committee, passed a tree ordinance.

>>Tree ordinance in hand, I submitted AF's application to become a Tree City USA. Since we have met all the requirements, I have every reason to hope that the application will be accepted.

>>The City broke ground on pressurized irrigation and hosted the first open house for the project. Said open house was a well planned event whose many attendees were richly rewarded with useful information.

>>Working closely with Mayor Thompson and Council Member Dale Gunther, I succeeded in recruiting an A-Plus All-Star line-up to serve as the first ever American Fork Arts Council Governing Board. I will not reveal names at this time; curious art lovers may attend the December 11 City Council meeting to witness the appointments.

>>The City Council approved the concept plan for the new lifestyle center to be called the Village at the Meadows.

Now, how to top this in December?
