In a recent government meeting, officials discussed several key topics, including financial claims for community programs and a heroic act by a local youth.

The meeting began with a review of claims related to community activities, specifically a paint class and a science camp led by local educator Daniel Dietrich. The claims included payments of $250 for the paint class and $2,250 for a mini science camp, along with $1,150 for a full-day session. The council approved these claims unanimously, highlighting the strong participation in the science camp this year, which had filled to capacity.

In a notable moment, the meeting shifted focus to recognize Zoey, a young resident who played a crucial role in alerting her family and neighbors to a fire on Lehi Street. Thanks to her quick thinking and calm demeanor, both households were evacuated safely. The council presented Zoey with a challenge coin and a certificate of appreciation for her bravery, acknowledging her as a hero in the community.

The meeting concluded with Chief of Police Eric Cruz introducing a new ride-along policy, indicating ongoing efforts to enhance community engagement and transparency within the police department. Further details on this policy were anticipated in subsequent discussions.
