NRAC opens nominations for Natural Resources Awards; aims to vote April 2
Summary
The commission will advertise nominations (including self-nominations) for a business and an individual/family Natural Resources Award, coordinate with the Orem Business Alliance, and aims to vote on nominees at its April 2 meeting before City Council approval on 4/28/2026.
The Natural Resources Advisory Commission agreed to begin soliciting nominations for its annual Natural Resources Awards, one business and one individual/family. The commission plans to advertise the nomination process via the city’s monthly newsletter and social media, allow self-nominations, and coordinate outreach with the Orem Business Alliance.
Commissioners discussed a potential homeowner nominee for a pollinator garden; Hilary Hungerford said she would reach out to the homeowner to determine willingness to be nominated. The commission set a target to vote on nominations at the April 2 meeting and asked staff to check timelines for award creation and City Council approval (target date 4/28/2026). Action items were assigned to Kaitlin Marsh (advertising and coordination), Bradley Day (calendar request and Zoom rules), and Hilary Hungerford (outreach to the homeowner).
