| FALL Green Waste Pick Up
Although the heat of summer makes it hard to believe, the truth is fall is coming and with it come leaves, leaves and more leaves. We do our best to keep the waterways and storm drains clear of debris but we are sometimes unable to keep up with mother nature. We are asking for your assistance in keeping the waterways in front of your homes clear and bagging the debris. From now until the snow flies we will gladly come pick up your bagged leaves if you will call Shelly at 782-8111. Question: Are there rules against on street parking? Answer: The City has a few rules related to parking vehicles and trailers on public right of ways. The City has rules against the storage of trailers on streets and other right-of-ways. North Ogden Code (7-3-8). Any unattached trailer may only be parked on North Ogden City roads for a maximum of 24 hours. Recreational trailers may be parked for up to 48 hours, but for no more than 10 days in any given month. Additionally, during the winter months the City prohibits the parking of vehicles on street overnight. (North Ogden Code 7-3-4). This restriction runs from November 15 through March 15 between the hours of 12:00 am and 6:00 am. Additionally, this restriction expands to any hour during the first 24 hours after the cessation of a winter storm. The City strictly enforces these parking standards to alleviate concerns of our residents as well as provide safety during winter storm events within the City. In the past several years we have had a few vehicles damaged by snow removal equipment and so we need to be diligent in keeping the streets clear when the snow season starts again. Green Waste Pick Up Green Waste Pick up The City has scheduled the fall Green Waste Pick Up for October 23rd-27th, 2017; collection will be on your regular garbage day. The volume of material may, however, delay collection. The regulations mentioned below must be followed when placing material out for collection. All materials must be in bags, boxes or containers. Bush clippings and small tree limbs must be bundled and no longer than 5 feet in length. Weight limit is 75 pounds. Place materials in parkways, not in curb or waterways. This is a Green Waste Clean Up Only. We appreciate citizen participation and encourage your use of the green waste facility. For that reason the facility will be open for your use at NO CHARGE the entire clean-up week (Monday –Friday) from 8am to 4:30pm and Saturdays the 21st and 28th from 9am to 2pm. If you have questions contact. Brian Galvez at 782-8111, or email bgalvez@nogden.org. WEATHER PERMITTING The green waste facility will remain open through November 18, 2017 on its regular schedule (fees apply). Tree Trimming The Public Works Department, City Forester and Code Enforcement Official would like to draw your attention to the trees in your yard that overhang the curb and gutter and ask that you trim those to a minimum height of nine feet (9’) above the curb and gutter and so that no branches overhang onto the roadway. Beginning in October, city employees will be around the city trimming those trees that have not been trimmed. The trimming done by the city will be for functionality and may not be aesthetically pleasing. Residents are asked to comply with the requested trimmings for the best results. The green waste facility is open for the disposal of your trimmings on Mondays and Wednesdays from 3pm to 6pm and Saturdays 9am to 2pm. Pick up a punch pass at the city office during business hours. We greatly appreciate your cooperation. City Code 11-8D-5-A2: “Landscaping materials shall be contained so as not to spill into the public right of way.” City Code 11-8D-5-A3: “…trees in the park strip shall have a minimum height of seven feet (7’) for the lowest branches of the tree when they extend above the curb or sidewalk.” City Code 11-8D-5-A4: “Any damage to city property created by vegetation will be the responsibility of the property owner.” City Code 11-10-11-A: “…no fence, hedge, or other similar structure shall be erected in any required front yard of a lot to a height in excess of three and on-half feet (3.5’) Employee of the Month Lorrie Frazier Lorrie Frazier is the Administrative Executive Secretary and Office Manager for the North Ogden Police Department.

Lorrie is an exceptional team player and is a great example to everyone with whom she works . Election Candidates Q & A Outgoing Councilman Lynn Satterthwaite posed the same questions to all City Council candidates, and the candidates’ answers to selected questions are posted below in their entirety without any content editing (minor grammatical errors were corrected). See answers to additional questions at www.northogdencity.com under the “elections” tab Question: The city purchased Barker Park many years ago. A large part of the park remains undeveloped. What would you do with the undeveloped land? If there is a cost involved to implement your plan, how would you pay for it? Anderson: I believe the orignal idea of it being a park with trails and boweries and picnic areas would still be a great thing to put into this park. However, it would be a great place for the community gardens, Weber state and Utah state agricultural programs could also use it as small research fields. We should also have the developers help pay for the rest of the development of the park. Developers are providing very little green space as they build their subdivisions. They are getting rich off the city, so requiring them to donate money toward the development of Barker Park in addition to the fees they already pay. We would need to set up an account that is dedicated for that purpose only. As we approach fully built out, green space opportunities are disappearing rapidly. Barker: This question is possibly the easiest for me to answer. Being part of the family that sold this land to the City I feel I have a small understanding of what this land should be used for. It is my understanding that there is an agreement in place between North Ogden City and the Ray Barker Family that the undeveloped land will remain available to be farmed by the family until it is ready to be developed. I personally would like to see this land be developed for a park so the rest of the city may enjoy its beauty. I also understand that there is a committee made up of City Council and Barker Family Members to design the new park. As for financing I would suggest the city continue asking for and using RAMP funds to help pay for the park. I realize that the city must still come up with a matching portion but if the City is willing to match and contribute to redesign and rebuild the existing Amphitheater then the City should strive to fulfill its promises made to the Barker Family concerning the rest of the undeveloped land. Cevering: The American Planning Association (planning.org) suggests five benefits for parks: 1) Property values are positively affected; 2) Municipal revenues are increased; 3) Affluent citizens are attracted and retained; 4) "Knowledge workers" men/women who are employed to sell their knowledge as opposed to labor, are 33% more apt to buy homes in areas that have more recreational opportunities; 5) Homebuyers want open space (in a 2001 survey by the National Association of Realtors, 57% of voters would choose to buy homes close to parks and open space). Investing in parks by cities is vital to property tax revenue. Cities cannot afford NOT to create parks. So how do we pay for it? I believe a partnership between municipalities and private businesses is one viable option. We have an excellent example of this in Wadman Park. I think we might be surprised how many private companies would be willing to assist in the creation of local parks. Fawson: I would honor the request of the previous owners to have a long-term plan to develop it as community green space or a park. Funding for a new park may be enhanced by individuals, groups or businesses who have special interest in said development. If there are future considerations of development of nearby by business they may help sponsor and develop the park as part of their community buy in. Question: The city does not have adequate funding to repair, replace and maintain city assets including water, sewer and storm drain lines, water meter equipment, vehicles and buildings. How will you deal with this issue? Anderson: While bonding is not always the best way to go, sometimes you have to incur debt. This is one area that we need to make sure we are funding; we need to stop robbing one account to pay the other. I would most probably go for a bond that would take care of those things in our infracstructure that are going to continue to fail in the future years. Successful businesses spread capitol expenditures over time with debt. Barker: Unfortunately this is another question that I am not able to fully answer yet. I am not sure how to raise additional funding needed. After working with multiple departments I fully respect what they are able to accomplish with the funds that they have. I admire our City employees that strive to maintain the city's infrastructure as best as possible and still work on improvements as needed. I think this is a problem every city deals with in that as a city we need to be fiscally responsible with our Tax Payer's money but also strive to make improvements when needed. Cevering: I believe in saving. I believe in being cautious with money, mine and the money of other people. For me, the widow's mite has a broader application than just religious circles. I am a big advocate for saving for a rainy day. However, large savings accounts may not exist; yet, we need to have adequate infrastructure. Because of this I believe that bonding might be an option ... but an option that is paid off as quickly as possible. In saying that, I also believe in being very transparent with citizens so they know what challenges the city faces with inadequate infrastructure. When people see and understand the need, they feel ownership. They may not want to bond or have a raise in taxes ... but it is reality. Fawson: A well thought out budget includes future planning and saving for expected needs. I appreciate the work that has been done in evaluating the depreciation of city assets and setting aside a portion of the budget for expected future expenses. We should be prepared to replace essential equipment and assets in our city when they reach their useful lifespan. This planning will help North Ogden to avoid crisis budgeting or bonding in the future when assets break down. I hope to carry this vision forward and will always encourage solutions that avoid debt and keep interest working in our favor.
