Park City, Social Equity, and Severance
Goodbye Diane Foster. You seemed like a good City Manager. You managed through a period of change and always appeared competent. If Tom Fisher decides to leave Summit County at some point, I would welcome you to the Summit County County Manager position. But you’re likely moving on to bigger and better things. Yet, your …

Treasure deal must be SIMPLE
I was reading another Park Record article on the Treasure purchase. Each time I get more confused. What exactly is it that Parkites (I mean the 84060 variety) will be voting on and paying for? Are you buying all the Treasure land ? Most of it? Some of it? Will you get all the rights …
Do you trust Summit County and Park City with your information?
A friend of mine recently received a survey about the Summit Bike Share program.

Spring is here in Park City.
Spring has arrived in Park City. How do we know? The Chamber of Commerce has declared it.
Every time we hear the term “Bonanza Flats” it makes us cringe
If someone wrote “I live in Park Citie,” would you care? Would it influence your opinion of him. Does it matter if he doesn’t spell city correctly? If your government did the same thing, would it influence your opinion of them? How about your local newspaper? Do they have to get it right? As many people are …
We Parkites should stop freaking out about Trump and concentrate on our real issues
Can Park City stop freaking out about the election of Donald Trump yet? We hope so. From schools saying they are going to enforce bullying (we thought they already did that), to worries about whether snow will continue to fall during a Trump presidency, to the Sheriff’s Department saying they “won’t participate in any sort …
What do you say when questioned about Park City?
So, you are in an airport in St Louis and someone asks you whether they should visit Park City, what do you say? A) Yes, it’s a great place to visit, with nice people, great skiing, and is even better in the summer. B) No, uhhh… you wouldn’t like it. There are few evergreens like you …
