Welcome ALL to 2022!

 

We look forward to a year of great promise in getting better acquainted with everyone in our Wasatch Hollow Community. We will still be meeting virtually via Zoom on the 4th Wednesday of each month at 7:00pm, January through June. The Anderson-Foothill Library will let us know as soon as their meeting rooms open for public meetings. Looking ahead to February, our council holds our annual election of officers. Please be thinking about this as an opportunity to get involved and become better acquainted with your community neighbors. This past year’s experience has proven that we have many great, capable, enthusiastic community members among us. This year’s board was made up of a mix of new and previously serving members. That mix has been a very rewarding opportunity to re-energize our council, as the mix of new ideas and experience have made us a good team.

We look forward to seeing you each 4th Wednesday. Please stay tuned, safe, and well!

Connect SLC -- Transportation Master Plan Priorities Survey 

We want to hear from you! Take the Transportation Master Plan Priorities Survey by January 9th to help shape the future of transportation in SLC!

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ConnectSLCvalues

What is most important to you when it comes to daily transportation needs?
How should Salt Lake City improve the transportation network to better serve you?
How can Salt Lake City government and our partners better improve transportation for you?

Your comments will help shape Salt Lake City into a place where it is easy to walk, bike, take transit, or scoot to your destinations.

 

We wish to thank all in our community for your support during this past virtual meeting year. We as a board have grown strong in our desire to provide events and information to draw us into an actively friendly and inclusive community. 

  • The Wasatch Hollow Garden event drew in many old and new members to a thriving garden led by Clark and Bill. 
  • Our new Urban Forest subcommittee is working to provide valuable service and information in the coming years led by Barbara Ballingham and Laurie Bryant.
  • Joining the 4th of July Burgers & Band was a successful endeavor.
  • We welcomed the 1st Summer Luau and appreciated the Ice Cream Social by our Colonial Hills Ward neighbors.

We hope to sponsor and participate in other events in the 2022 year and would welcome your input as to what events you might enjoy. We meet again as a Community Council on January 26, 2022, at 7:00pm. We hope to see many of you again then. Have a very safe and healthy holiday season.

Wasatch Community Garden Open House

Thanks to everyone that attended our open house on Saturday, September 18th!  If you missed it, please stop by and check out our amazing community garden (it’s located above 16th East on Kensington Ave, down alley to the south, toward the park).

We had a great turnout for our open house and enjoyed introducing the garden to members of the community that had not experienced it yet.  Information was shared about the garden and gardening; even a little free gardening book library just for the event.  Thanks to all of you that signed up for a plot for next year!  Urban Forestry information on your park-strip trees was also shared.  Plus, we had lots of fun with our art project of painting rocks.

Thanks again for your support and we look forward to seeing you in the garden!

Thank you Tree Utah!

On Saturday, April 3, Tree Utah and many volunteers planted trees and shrubs in the north section of the Wasatch Hollow Preserve. These will greatly improve the habitat of this area for natural wildlife and our peaceful long-term enjoyment of the area. Please take special care not to trample or uproot these new plantings. We are most appreciative of this effort by Tree Utah.
