I respectfully disagree with Lance on the personal Qwest issues being minutia. The board needs to hear about the poor product offered and the inadequate level of support services. As for the survey, I hold judgment oh how accurate the findings are. I know few if any of the people in my area visit the community web site or really care what’s posted there.
As for landscaping issues, in addition to foreclosures and short sales, rentals and absentee owners were discussed. The LDS church isn't cleaning up the private residences. They have contracted to clean up the lots turned into parking areas.
Regarding the temple traffic, the HOA is not responsible, but Kennecott should be as the city and the LDS church did not make the decision to route traffic through the community in a vacuum. Kennecott was a very active partner in how the traffic would flow. When the temple was announced several years ago, Kennecott went to great lengths to assure residents the traffic would flow on 4000 West and not create issues on our quiet side streets. They want the exposure and thought no farther than their wallets as to how it would impact the resident’s safety.
The dog park was discussed. Kennecott thinks the HOA should fund improvements for the Dog Park like they are doing at Sunflower. If that is the case, the park will remain substantially unusable for a great deal of time, until funding is available. The suggestion was made that since Kennecott Land sets the level of expectations for parks and amenities, and the Dog Park did not in any manner meet those expectations, they should not have turned the park over to the HOA. The same comment was made about Sunrise Park on Open Crest. Both Parks were turned over to the HOA unfinished and unsafe, putting the residents on the financial hook to set them right.
