Happy Arbor Day


Recently West Valley City was awarded Tree City USA status for the 15 consecutive year. We had a nice presentation from the State Division of Forestry as well as an update from West Valley Trees committee during our regular City Council meeting. Today I joined with other members of the City Council, WVC Parks Department, and kids from the Family Fitness center Kidz Kamp in planting some trees. The Eastern Redbuds were arranged around a grassy area at the circular end of City Center Ct, near the E-Center. These events are a great asset to the City as these tree will be enjoyed by visitors and residents for years to come. The significance of investing and improving your home and community is of utmost importance to the future of West Valley City. Participation in this Arbor Day event is small token of that commitment and I hope that many more will catch that vision.
