THIS WEEKS EVENTS:


*Book Club
Mark your calendars for Thursday September 27th at 7:30pm.
This month we will be reading "Jane Eyre" by Jane Austen.  It will be fun to read a classic together!  Liz Bischoff is kind enough to be hosting this months meeting.  She has moved out of the neighborhood but still lives really close.  Her address and directions are: 1375 Cedar Ridge Road. Basically you head towards Smith's turn right on 1200 E and go straight (pass 2 dips, the turn off is at the top of the 2nd dip) - turn right onto Cedar Ridge Road. We're the 2nd house on the left. I live in the basement apartment so instead of going to the front door of the house. Take the stairs down on the east side of the house to our front door. There is lots of street parking on the east side of the house too. 

If you want to carpool call or text Meg Ford at: 801-427-5592

*Timp Hwy Commuter Lane Traffic Noise Alert
The Timpanogos Highway commuter lanes have recently opened and with the increased traffic that is closer to us on these lanes comes more engine noise particularly from large diesel trucks.  I have learned that there is a hotline number at UDOT that anyone can call and voice their concerns.  UDOT is collecting feedback in the next month that can potentially affect decisions concerning the usage of these lanes.  They are considering restricting diesel engine brakes or restricting all truck traffic on the commuter lanes (which would help keep our neighborhood quiet and peaceful).  UDOT welcomes feedback from residents near the highway.  The hotline number is 877-222-3757 Or email them at: http://www.udot.utah.gov/sr92/contact.php
