Smiths Market Place

The North Ogden City Council approved an agreement with Smith's Food and Drug for the construction of a Smith's Market Place south of their existing store.

Under the terms of the agreement, Smith's anticipates building a 123,000 square foot building. North Ogden City will use the permitting fees paid by Smith's to extend, upgrade and build some of the infrastructure - water lines, sewer lines and a storm drain detention pond.

Good Samaritan Deed

On May 14^th, 2013, Marijka Scothern called the North Ogden Police Department to report her 11 year old daughter had accidently left her purse containing her life savings, a one-hundred dollar bill, on a bench in front of the North Shore Aquatic Center. 

Marijka called the police department on the afternoon of May 15^th to report her daughter had gotten her purse back, including the contents.  The purse was discovered by two part-time employees from the Aquatic Center, Jordan Joy and Gabriel Madsen, while they were policing the grounds of the Aquatic Center on the afternoon of May 14^th.  Jordan and Gabriel showed exemplary conduct by making sure the purse and its contents were returned to the rightful owner.

Jordan and Gabriel were presented with a certificate signed by Mayor Richard Harris and Chief of Police Kevin Warren, in appreciation for impeccable character and honesty displayed by returning lost money at the North Shore Aquatic Center.  Both City employees are the kind of individuals we covet to represent our great city.  Thank you Jordan and Gabriel, for your exemplary action of honesty.

JULY 20TH @ 9:15 P.M.

During their July 9th meeting, the North Ogden City Council took the following action.

• Approved the City attorney contract with Anderson Call & Wilkinson.  This extends the City's contract with this firm until June 30, 2015.
• Asked the staff to prepare a sample all terrain vehicle ordinance.  Mr. Terry Bexell asked the City to consider permitting ATV, specifically side-by-side ATVs, to be allowed on City streets.  The staff will look at ATV definitions, age restrictions, and locations where ATVs would be permitted. The staff will also gather information regarding traffic accidents involving ATVs and other cities' experiences with these ordinances.  The staff will present their information in August.
• Asked the staff to revise a Cherry Days transition plan.  The City Council voiced support for transferring the planning and operation of Cherry Days to a private foundation.  The transition plan includes gradually shifting the operation of Cherry Days to a private organization that the City will help to initially create.
• Received an update from the staff regarding employee compensation and changes to the employee policy manual.  Earlier in the year, the City Council received a report from the employee compensation committee concerning the City's salaries and benefits.  A copy of this report can be found on the City's web page under the information tab.  The City Council asked the staff to prepare an implementation plan for some of the recommendations made by the committee for the Council's consideration.  This report and plan will be completed by October.  
• The City Council also reviewed the City's policy for severance pay when laying off employees as found in Chapter 4 of the employee policies and procedures manual.  The City Council asked the staff to bring back other options for revising this policy.  The staff will present the options in August.
