SunCrestResidents.org just learned that earlier in the week, it was Zions intention to close the market. After some happenings this week, that idea is still on the table, but is up for discussion.
Jake and Jerry plan to meet with Zions bank as early as Monday 6/30, to discuss what impact the store has on the project and to ultimately make the decision to either close or to remain open and operational.
Jake and Jerry would appreciate our help in this effort. What they propose is just a simple email from every resident possible. All that is needed is a short statement as to why we would like to keep the market open, and why it is a benefit to the development. In addition, include your name and subdivision.
Please send the emails directly to Jake and Jerry at suncrestmarket@yahoo.com so that they can print them off and have a nice pile of supportive e-mails on hand to share with the bank.
The voice of the people up here in SunCrest will have a very strong influence on their decision.
Make a difference and let your voice be heard!
Please take the time to send a quick e-mail immediately.

SunCrestResidents.org Meeting Rescheduled
Normally, SR.org meets the fourth Tuesday of every month. Anyone is welcome to attend!
This month, due to the auction information and other events, our meeting will be held in conjunction with the Fire Safety Presentation:
ARE YOU FIRE WISE?
On Friday, June 27 at 7 p.m. at the Village Green park, (by the Info Center in SunCrest) the Unified Fire Authority of Salt Lake County will make a presentation to SunCrest residents, uniquely tailored to our concerns and needs. There will be information (and handouts) on fire-wise landscaping, fire dangers and prevention, and fire suppression. Learn about UFA's plans for SunCrest. If you live here, you need to know what you can do to keep your home and family safe. Bring your lawn chairs or blankets, and join with your neighbors in this important event.
At 8:00 we will hold our regular SunCrestResidents.org meeting. We hope to have more information on what the results of the auction mean for the residents, a TRSSD update, and an OA report. We will do a Q/A and answer as many questions as we are able.

SunCrest Auction
SunCrest was auctioned off today. Three entities placed bids, but the judge refused two of them. Zions Bank offered $25 million for the property. They also agreed to pick up the tab (whether it's $12 million or $20 million) for infrastructure and other improvements to make the community comply with the master-development agreement.

We are doing some digging and checking into specifically what this means for SunCrest Residents. We will have more solid information to share at Friday's meeting.

Vote Tuesday
Democrats and Republicans in SL COUNTY: GO VOTE TUESDAY for school board members and State Treasurer at Draper City Hall, 1020 E. Pioneer Road.
Republicans in UT COUNTY: GO VOTE TUESDAY for State Treasurer at Ridgeline Elementary School at the bottom of the south side of the mountain, in Highland.
For all of our Salt Lake County SunCrest neighbors:
Tuesday, June 24th, is election day for the NEW school district board member that will represent the Draper area. There are several candidates to choose from:
Tracy Bennett, Steve Chambers, Paul McCarty, Lyn Pappas, Bill Rappleye, and Tony Rivas.
Several of us have met with and talked to Paul McCarty, Tracy Bennett and Steve Chambers. Paul and Tracy seem very qualified and have a lot of experience in the education arena, and Steve seems willing to give it all he's got.
PLEASE take the time to go to the Trib Candidate Bio Web site and make an informed decision:
http://www.sltrib.com/ci_9416611?IADID=Search-www.sltrib.com-www.sltrib.com
This is NOT a Primary Election. You may vote for only one candidate, and whoever gets the highest percentage, even if it's only 25%, will win the seat. As this new district is forming, it is vital to have board members who know what they're doing, ones who can work with parents, teachers and administrators to create the best possible educational scenario for our children.
All Republicans in SunCrest also have the opportunity to vote in the Primary Election for the Republican candidate for State Treasurer, between Richard Ellis and Mark Walker.
