Snow days… Park City Schools are damned if they do and damned if they don’t
Today, Park City Schools were closed due to snow. This decision sits well with some and sits poorly with others. Those advocating the school closing cite safety. The other side cite the real-world impact of managing kids out of school with one hour notice. Both have merits. I tend to look at it somewhat differently. …
Will the Jeremy Roundabouts finish on time?
Mid summer is when most Parkites check-out. However, our short-term future depends on the Jeremy Ranch Roundabout construction workers pushing through. We have the two largest roundabouts in Utah history Park City being constructed in our community. With unlimited time, money, and no traffic it wouldn’t be a big deal. However, the witching hour — …
The PArk Record Crossed the Line on local election

She has been on the job since 2013 and her employment contract provided a severance package equal to a year’s pay, according to the Park Record. That equates to about $140,000. Good for Ms Foster in receiving a severance package. I only …
What if you don’t know it’s a roundabout?
It may seem like I’m are beating a dead horse on safety issues on the Jeremy and Pinebrook roundabouts. However, the Park Rag continues to point out issues because they may be heard and maybe improvements will be made. With that in mind, a friend of ours was driving last night in the roundabout and …
Corona Virus is coming to Park City
The new Coronavirus is coming to Park City — or better put — the new Coronavirus is already in Park City.
Please Step Up Park City School District
A few days ago I wrote that the Park City School District needed to tell parents and teachers that school will be remote until the end of the school year. My reasoning is that it allows us all to make better decisions. I had some push back via email and social media that “I’m an …
