Have you noticed some road construction in Eagle Crest? Well Zion's Bank hired Utah Homes to do the needed repairs so the city will take over the roads in Eagle Crest. Now its been noticed that they are working on the clubhouse now. The pool is all cleaned out, landscaping going in, and working in the inside. In order for the clubhouse to get its occupancy permit it needed to finish those same things. I haven't heard nor has SunCrest management if Zion's plans to open the Clubhouse. It sure would be nice, but nicer if they did it when we could actually USE the pool. Oh, and Utah homes plans on taking that ugly trailer above the market when they are finished.

Tunnel under Traverse Ridge?
New information: The tunnel and land acquisition was voted and approved by not only Salt Lake County Council, who funded the money, but Draper Councilmen, Walker, Summerhayes, and Stenquist. Ms. Davis and Mr. Colbert voted against the deal. This was all approved in July 2009. The April 2010 meeting about the tunnel was to vote to ask for grants to cover the cities tunnel expense up to $190,000. No grants have been received as of yet. As for the winter ice build up over the tunnel. I was told that their should be enough utilities and material between the tunnel and road that it wouldn't freeze over like a highway overpass would.
You may have been wondering about all that construction going down the mountain on Traverse Ridge. They are actually building a tunnel for a trail system. Remember last year Salt Lake County helped Draper purchase 141 acres for $2.75 million from South Mountain Developer, Terry Diehl. A condition in the settlement was that Mr. Diehl provide access to link the newly acquired acres called Little Valley for a trail system. Below is the Draper City council minutes from April 20, 2010. There is also a resolution 10-21 talking about the little valley tunnel. It states Draper city will pay up to $190,000 for the tunnel. (If you click on the pictures they become larger) Well sorry I didn't catch this during discussions in April so you could be notified and make your comments to the city council. I guess its the LITTLE VALLEY TUNNEL part that didn't catch my attention. I sure hope they plan on putting some kind of heat tape on the road going over the tunnel, because the wind sure does whip snow through there in the winter. I would think black ice would develop causing major problems for US who have drive down the mountain. I sure hope the deer get some use out of the tunnel instead of crossing the street :-)
