City Council meetings are usually only scheduled during the first four Tuesdays of each month. Today was a Fifth Tuesday and as such no meetings today. However, I did participate in a meeting today as a member of the West Valley Monument Review Committee to discuss a proposed Serviceman Memorial. The City Council also took the opportunity of no meetings to participate in a City service project. Myself and two other City Councilmembers assembled at the Harman Senior Center to clean out some of the basement storerooms. We quickly filled a dumpster with trash and reorganized the supplies in the rooms. I feel that it is very positive for our City Council to learn how to work together in and out of City Council Chambers. It was also a good opportunity to get to know a couple of staff members that oversees the operations of this great City facility and learn more about the mission of the Center.
The David and Grace Harman Family Home was the boyhood home of Pete Harman, founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken, which he donated to the City for use as a senior recreation center. The house was originally built in 1918 and remodeled in 1989 before Harman turned it over to the City.
Today, the Harman Senior Recreation Center provides West Valley City's senior residents with access to community resources and programs that enhance dignity, support independence, encourage community involvement, and stimulate physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
