Site Visit Day One: Davis County

Thank you for participating in Day One of the On-line Legislative Town Meeting.

No citizen input was discarded or censored, although we edited a few for spelling and punctuation. If your comment or question has not yet appeared don’t lose hope. We are still collecting responses for several very excellent questions. We will also add new comments to current posts as the Meeting progresses.

Legislators were involved in more than thumb typing Town Meeting responses on their BlackBerries. Here is a sampling of the Site Visit to Davis County:



Loading the buses at the Salt Palace.


Mike, from Chevron, gives an intro as we entered the gates.

Who didn't get the memo to wear a white collared shirt and a black lanyard?

The bus took the scenic route through Hill Air Force Base. The white silos are full of corn.


Final stop . . . ATK Plant. Rockets. Very cool.
