Three times in the last week since publication, the City has asked for the citizen’s input and help for the following:
1. Time Capsule
As the construction of the new city hall building goes on, plans are being made to install a time capsule at the base of one of the pillars, in the front of the building.
The Historic Preservation Committee (HPC) asked the public for input on what should be in the capsule
What would you put into the time capsule for future posterity? Let the HPC know!
2. Nameless Park
Mayor Olson presented a plan for a new mountain biking park up Santaquin Canyon at the City Council meeting on January 4th.
At the regular meeting on Jan. 18th, he explained that he can’t move forward and get funding for the project without a name.
So, send your ideas to the Council!
3. Help finding old pictures
In conjunction with the Mayor’s project, he asked the HPC to find pictures of the old hydroelectric powerplant and the pipe that used to conduct water to it, which used to be in the canyon.
Send any leads to the HPC!
For the time capsule, possibly an empty covid vaccine vial? I have access to that.
