What do you like most about living in Eagle Mountain City? Wide-open spaces, low traffic in the actual town. The diversity I love the feeling of safety. I like being away from the crazy of the city Not sure…used to be open space and rural feel…not anymore. The small town feel, and hov trails close by The community The walking and running trails and connectivity. La tranquilidad de la cuidad The trail systems for hiking and biking The cleanliness, the family oriented community, parks and trails. I love the trees and flowers in the medians.

Quiet, and a nice distance away from a major city. The quiet, open spaces. Small town feel, open space, agriculture, and livestock. I like the trails for walking and biking.

What is the most important change needed to improve Eagle Mountain City? Less building, less shops, less people. “More accountability and maintaining the neighborhoods. It was TERRIBLE living here last year and NO ONE wore masks. Absolutely poor leadership. The neighborhoods going in damage the ones already here and the public sidewalks are a mess. We also need a rec center and a pool or a library would be great. ” Better roads! We need to get ahead of traffic issues instead of trying to fix them after they are a headache No more high density housing Recreation center The maceys in city center “The Library services are a challenge. Programming isn’t what I wish it was and the distance to City Center is inconvenient. I wish there were services in the Ranches. ” Menos construcciones de casas y mas areas verdes. Less high density housing Infrastructure, we don’t have enough ways out of city center. A fishing, swimming, kayaking pond would also be nice. We need more businesses, specifically restaurants. More communication and transparency from city Restrictions on ornamental grass for water conservation. Paint lines on the road that are easy enough to see in the dark. Make the city center as pretty as the ranches! Preserve open spaces. Continue building infrastructure. Dog bag posts with trash cans to help with animal waste everywhere. It’s hard because so many dogs are always off leash, but I think it would help. Aquatics center We need new soccer fields, all of them have so much dirt and rocks. We need new fields for both the rec and club teams Consistent responsible growth and holding developers to higher standards. Getting Business to move out here. Growth is inevitable but I would love it if the city could keep it’s feeling of being away from the hustle and bustle “Traffic is a big problem. The only two ways out is pony express and eagle mtn boulevard. Both of which have had speeds reduced and traffic problems due to housing coming in. Once all the residential development comes in we are going to be in serious need of some form of highway to get from the city center out to SR73 or Redwood Road. HOA’s are evil, unethical, and in my opinion unconstitutional. While not necessarily the city’s responsibility it does fall under “”living in eagle mountain””. They should be forced out. ” A few businesses Better roadways to accommodate growth. Recreation activitiesgeared towards teens Build Winco here Traffic is getting awful. Need better roads. Transportation issues due to increased growth. More businesses. It would be great to not have to drive 10-20 minutes just to grab a gallon of milk or some eggs. Also, better infrastructure to get in and out of Eagle Mountain. A road like Bangerter would be nice to quickly get in and out Saratoga Springs. More businesses in city center Transportation. More main roads! One road to redwood is not enough, especially with the Facebook traffic. Also, I know this is not up to the city, but having votes in communities to either keep or get rid of HOA’s. Secondary water for watering Stop building. Or at least stop building townhomes and condos. More stores and restaurants. less density Road infrastructure (highway/freeway access, expanded existing roads like Eagle Mountain Blvd and CR73) Be more firm against high density Dealing with increased traffic. STOP BUILDING. Keep EM a small town as much as possible. No more high density housing. No more HOAs. slow down the growth, we are growing faster than the available water will be able to handle More business and higher density housing. Single family homes are not sustainable. Infastucture “ROADS and better parks. Zoning for bigger lots. STOP condensed housing. ” I would love to see a recreation center in eagle Mountain Infrastructure needs to keep up with growth. A body of water first and foremost. We need somewhere local to fish and kayak and stuff! Golf course would be cool too. Swimming pool Better water management and maintaining traffic and population density We need to make sure that our infrastructure exceeds our current needs. With the amount of housing that is being built our infrastructure needs are going to quickly fall behind. FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY STOP BUILDING CONDENSED HOUSING (TOWNHOMES, CONDOS, ETC.). It just packs more people into a smaller space. We have an exceptional amount of land that can be used in EM, please use it. The landscaping in the city center is embaembarrassing Monitoring of developers, greater infrastructure, space for teenagers such as an accessible skatepark in the ranches Changes I’d say are already in the process: infrastructure, more grocery stores. A rec center would be great. Stopping the open space shrinking! A rec center would be nice – with a pool. Rec center “We need to keep the small-town feel. We have to limit the high-density housing. We have to have home lots that are larger – let’s spread things out a bit. I would love for the golf course to take a greater role in maintaining their areas, especially those that they share with residents. ” Public swimming pool or ice skating rink Stop building so many homes. Slow down the growth. Widened and additional roads out of eagle mountain sooner rather than later Limit low density housing. Infrastructure growth and business growth/planning. More traffic enforcement- SO many aggressive drivers, people speeding through neighborhoods and city streets, etc. Construction vehicles as well. We see dump trucks and gravel trucks going 20-30+ mph over the speed limit all the time along our neighborhood. Stop building houses and high density housing in the Ranches!! Road maintenance and expansions to accommodate the amount of traffic Infrastructure…more streets to get from point a to point b. Wider streets Quit building houses so close together. We moved out here to have space. The mayor and city council have let us down. It’s not about money, it’s about a quality of life. A variety of stores for shopping Stop growing so big! More street lights in city center Keep Eagle Mountain with single family homes. Previously living in Daybreak, it was the high density housing that killed the community. Maintain a local small feel We need a location for children to learn to swim. Even a franchise business like Goldfish swim school would be better than nothing. There are many children growing up out here that don’t learn the important life saving skill because it’s too far, or lessons are not late enough at other recreation centers for parents to come home from work and drive to. Limit growth Better infrastructure and City planning. Work with small businesses to help them succeed out here instead of impeding them. traffic It’s hard to say it’s THE most important but it’s on my mind. The median strip through the ranches from the Maverick to the Chevron needs some serious help. It might be time to give up on the turf grass and go to rocks. Stop building more houses or allowing places like fb & Tyson to build out here, so they don’t use up all of the water! Improved roadways, even if the city needs to bond. We need better access both North South and now East West. Also pressure the state to accurate the Mountain Land Corridor from SR73 to Porter Rockwell. Keep high density out of the city. Stop giving away so much to developers. Stop approving so much high density housing. Require the developers to have bigger lot sizes so the city doesn’t get over crowded. So tired of the amount of town homes/condos and housing developments with tiny lots so they can squeeze in as many people as possible. Many of the things I can think of are already in progress, improving pony express, getting a grocery store/shopping in cc etc. the only things I can think of would be courting a second fiber internet provider for redundancy and competition, and secondary water (metered of course) While the small community atmosphere is great, a few more businesses would be great. Especially for dining. I would like to see an increase in the amount of landscaping (even water-conscious) next to roads/sidewalks/public areas. Restaraunts, City Recreation Center, Dog Parks More options into Salt Lake County. Housing density for new constructions is a serious problem. Too many tiny lots, huge clusters of townhomes packed together. Street width is too narrow. It is changing the feel and quality of the entire city. More restaurants in City Center. Traffic control and city planning. Eagle Mountain is growing at a fast rate, but I’d like it do be done in a smart way and not always about money. Businesses along hwy 73. Quit building so many small lot homes/condos/townhouses. It’s killing the city faster than anything else with so many homes in such small areas. Having some here and there would be fine, but the majority of things being built is this way. “Infrastructure of roads, another way to get in and out of the city. ” Less speeding on Pony Express Parkway and our own police department. Stop building too many houses please, and traffic needs to improve. Not so much of a change as a hope, but I’d love to keep the big huge businesses out of Eagle Mountain. There aren’t very many cities where people can go for peace and tranquility due to all the traffic, noise and commotion. Not forgetting space and good planning, rather than letting money and developers determine our future. More stores More businesses/commercial presence. I have a .5 acre lot and would like to be able to allow a tiny home on it to raise income. Improved city planning and communication of the “plan” for Eagle Mountain. It’s unclear what Eagle Mountain is aiming to be. When we moved here, it seemed like there was an emphasis on being a family-focused “rural” city with larger home lots. Lately, only “cluster homes” or town homes are being built with very few developments offering lot sizes larger than 0.2 acres. If the city feels denser housing is its best interests, the marketing and communication should reflect that vision, instead of the “rural” vision that has been the city’s vision historically. Clean up city center, make 2 exclusive right turn lanes from ranches parkway to Corey ride, and use the space under the power lines for something productive. I know it’s easement but it can still be green, or garden, or a parking lot. “one of the reason we chose our neighborhood of Parkside, which is behind Ridley’s, was that a large park was presumably going to be built nearby. Instead we have had a large amount townhomes built with their own small parks. Also it appears as though the area we thought was going to be a park is now filling with single family homes and is fenced off. And building less high density townhomes would be nice.” “There are so many young families and kids here, but not very many facilities and activities available without driving to another city. I would love to see a rec center or pool. I am enjoying that we have some businesses building here so I don’t have to travel as far. I also would like to see the city website improved. I have shown up for movies in the park bc it was on the event calendar, but there was no movie in the park. My kids were very disappointed. I think the event calendar could be better and more informative. I also would like to more easily find a calendar for the amphitheater. ” Keep creating more outdoor activities and trails. Maybe a stocked fishing pond, dog park, or off road vehicle park. It needs a Wells Fargo Bank. Keeping it quiet The lack of businesses. I’d love to shop and go out to eat in eagle mountain. The city is also not great about property upkeep. The roads, two lane roads do not sustain the traffic from city center. (Especially eagle mountain blvd) Infrastructure. The roads are too crowded, and don’t have turn lanes More businesses on city center Road infrastructure is too slow for the growth the city is experiencing. Better traffic access. A recreation center with pool, finish Cory wride park, establish trail system on north of 73, widen 73 to 4 lanes but not looking forward to the additional traffic that is coming on 73. Enforce stricter rules on gravel pits and gravel trucks on 73. The dust and rocks are obnoxious. Also enforce wet down of dirt at construction sites. The air in eagle mountain used to be great but it’s getting bad. Continued awareness of future changes and what can be done now to make them easier. More traffic lights along Pony Express and more lanes of traffic all over town. Build a community pool. Home not able to be built so close together. Less houses. Builders shouldn’t be allowed to stack house on top of each other. I liked this area for the space to spread out, unlike most other cities around the area. Builders should have to give people more yard or just build town homes. This also makes traffic so much worse. Rec center, pool. Would love somewhere closer I can go exercise indoors and a pool to take my child to that’s indoors. Stop the town homes and apartments “Need a fitness center/ sport courts Less winers 🙂 ” Roads leading in and out of town. Stop building new homes! Let the infrastructure catch up!!! A legitimate concrete skatepark that is well designed. More businesses, shops and general tax base infrastructure. Widening em bolevard to allow passing slow trucks in and out of town center. And lastly paving the road from town center to Tysons. My number one request is a community rec center. While we do have trails to enjoy in EM, they are almost exclusively without shade. In summers with a heatwave after heatwave on top of drought, we have no water resources for recreation, such as community pools, a reservoir, or anything besides a few splash pads which are geared for young children. A rec center with a pool would fill a huge gap in resources for active recreation in our desert region. Stop building high density More retail stores. Slow the grow. We don’t have roads that can handle what is happening right now. I have been out here for 14 years and it took years before they even built out things like Pony Express Parkway, etc. Last year Saratoga Springs had that huge fire. It took their community 3 hours to evacuate because there is only 1 road. What happens when there is a large disaster in our area? Stop allowing so much high density housing. I understand there is a housing shortage, but everywhere you look you see apartments, townhomes, and condos being built. And even most homes are being built so close together that they look like townhomes. I’m not sure what motivates the city to zone so much high density housing but you can maintain the rural feel better and for longer if you lower that zoning allotment. An attitude change for citizens. We arent “entitled” to anything. We need to show respect to each other Better parks in the Ranches. Better streets. Affordable housing and less HOAs. I’m a single mom. Rent and prices are too high, let alone paying $200 for HOAs. Maybe an incentive to landlords?? “Restrictions on HOAs More retail development (stop letting tax dollars go to saratoga springs) Reduce number of cluster/high density housing” Eagle mountain needs to improve business districts to bring more retail to eagle Mountain Roads and speed limits A rec center, and less people moving out here Growth is inevitable but needs to be sustainable through less sprawl, more public transportation options, more efficient infrastructure, and increased water conservation efforts especially on city property. More shopping options would be great, to bring some competitive and more affordable prices. Also, transportation options like a highway for the speedy drivers. I don’t like that my daily commute is 3 hours, but I’m not willing to die or get a ticket trying to keep up with these people going 60 in a 40. Infrastructure including expanding roads. Also, reducing new home building. Roads/access to the city. Traffic is becoming a nightmare and it’s not slowing down. Eagle Mountain is continuing to grow and access/roads need to be addressed ASAP. Business and transportation Roads need to expand to keep up with the growth of eagle mountain. No more condensed living. Slow the high density housing and enforce code regulations that help keep our neighborhoods and hones from looking rundown and trashy. Less high-density developments. Bring in few more stores. (Maceys is a great start) Dust control for new development and the pit on SR-73. Tired of cleaning mud and dust all the time inside a fully developed subdivision. Maybe some more shopping places and restaurants or fast food places so we don’t have to travel to other cities for those things. Stop approving building permits. “I wish there were better regulations on how close two homes could be built next to each other. The lots in city center were what made Eagle Mountain such a draw. Now all the new developments are homes on top of homes on top of homes. I know that the more homes that are built the more money there is to be made. But that philosophy doesn’t consider the quality of life of those who buy the homes and live here. We need bigger lots, more trees and less greed. We need more consideration during our growth to keep Eagle Mountain as that family friendly country town. We see beautiful fields and hills being covered with homes on rapid speed. Builders are blasting and creating hazards and damage all in name of making money. It seems that making money is more important to the city then caring for the families that make Eagle Mountain their home. Also, we need a designated fenced in dog park, open to dog owners whenever they need it. Sharing a dog park with a baseball field is ridiculous. That is a simple thing that would improve the quality of life in Eagle Mountain. ” There’s a lot of attitude that this is lawless country out here. We don’t have our own police force and everyone seems to just do whatever they want. Whether that’s speeding at 70 on Cory Wride or driving their ATVs on paved paths. No one with authority stops them so they keep doing it. Stop high density housing. Less condos. More quiet nature areas, and a LOT more trees Roads Slow development. People love eagle mountain for its small town feel. And you are losing that. Increase diversity, inclusion, more community based activities supporting and celebrating diversity i think we’re on a good track Economic development (which hopefully results in some money to have much needed improvements/facilities – roads, rec centers, parks, commercial development, etc.) More roads in and out of city center Dust control and weed cleanup on public streets in newer neighborhoods Rec Center with a swimming pool and places for kids to engage in free play. As the city continues to rapidly grow residentially, the commercial growth, city infrastructure (snow plows/removal, water accessibility, internet connections, cell towers, community resources, etc.), and roadways need to keep up with it or be ahead of the curve with regards to building permits/projections that are city approved. Slow down the development of the city. More businesses and for the city to runs its own baseball recreation program More paved walking/biking trails would be great Slow down on multi family and small lot homes. It is all condensed. It’s taking our running trails. And coming at such a rate that is so fast our Cory can’t keep up. Having city officials and law enforcement more engages and interact more with the citizens Less construction better food Making sure homes stay nice, not looking like dump yards “More single family homes with larger lots. Less townhomes/condos and homes packed close together being built. A city center. Major retail stores and dine-in restaurants.” Improved road infrastructure Fitness center with pool, better arterials for traffic Keep the yard sizes large. No more condos/townhomes. More restaurants. Roads! Roads! Roads! The traffic in and out of the city is unreal given the growth in population and the road system has not been expanded to match that growth. Also, we need commercial growth within our own city and not reliance on growth in Saratoga Springs. The city needs to be more small business-friendly. “Roads- roads need more than one lane. A few more businesses in city center. Mainly roads to accommodate the huge population growth.” Please, stop approving so many milti-unit housing developments (townhome/apartment). The space, feeling, ascetics, and lower traffic has always been such a wonderful part of living in the “suburbs”. While Eagle Mountain is going to grow massively I hope we can prevent the “city feel” from taking over and not be faced with excessive amount of cars lining the streets making them over crowded and continous flow of people moving in and out. Enforcement for dogs barking in small yards, dog breeding in neighborhoods Traffic management, real shopping choices, Comcast cable, better internet services, more support for elderly. Our parks besides Cory Wride are trash. Stop building high density residential. Traffic is terrible already getting into and out of the city. Too much high density housing being built. Many of the neighborhoods have way too many vehicles (passengers, trailers, RVs,) parked on the street on both sides. Nice wide, safe neighborhood streets are now in-effect narrow, dangerous one way roads. Dangerous for cars pulling out of drive ways. Dangerous for children playing outside. Most restaurants and grocery stores Control over speeding cars at night and during the day!!! Also HOAs. More businesses. We are a large city and need our own shopping. Bumming off Saratoga Springs is ridiculous. More food businesses. Too many orthodontist and dentistries. A traffic light at Wood haven and pony express to make turning out of silver lake a safer experience for the residents and guests. A kids park in Silverlake behind ranger drive to replace the field of grass that is a swamp from the HOA over watering. Actually having places to eat We need more food and entertainment options Infrastructure, roads. The traffic is terrible, and for us being in a drought shouldn’t we be limiting building permits. It’s crazy the amount of people moving out here. Make single homes lots bigger. We live next to the flagship homes in Silver Lake. Some homes barley have 10 feet between the houses. People park on the street, leave their trash on the road and park cars on the lawns. People need more space. The small lots make the neighborhood trashy. More splash pads. It would be awesome to have gated pools Stop building before you have the correct infrastructure rather than always playing catch-up! And find a way to enforce the penalties for speeding if possible! Roads & Infrastructure. Nothing I’d love more trails (Paved and Dirt) to encourage others to get out more and walk, run, cycle, whatever. I also think our own dedicated police force is needed with the never-ending population growth out here. The last thing, is there anything that can be done about the dust/dirt or to decrease it when the winds pick up? Honestly, the biggest downside for us currently is that the connector roads, like Wride Memorial Highway and Pony Express, get really backed up at their intersections with Redwood/2300 W/etc., and they could stand to be widened before EM grows even more. Keep open spaces (not developed). Enough roads and services for the growing population. Roads (two lanes each way) AND more than two ways out of city center It would be nice to have a rec center here. It seems that is the one thing missing from our community I recreation center and pool would be awesome!! A city vision for the entire valley. I feel like there are tons of projects going on that are separate and not part of a cool design. Eagle Mountain has so much land at its disposal and could create something amazing if they really planned out the city rather than have random builders just build a few 100 acres at a time. preserve green and open space Connection from sr 73 to pony express closer to city center Over crowding on the roads. Also the islands on Ranches pkwy are a serious menace. They need to be shorter (or removed) so you can actually see on-coming traffic Fishing pond Maintain roads and make sure they can accommodate future residents adequately. More businesses especially in city center, seems like this is in progress but city center definitely needs more businesses especially Less building There must be a second two lane paved roadway leaving, Eagle Mnt. and it’s not to use Hwy73. Faster roads, higher speed limits. Grocery store. Community center for sports and activity meetings. Less housing growth Recreation Center with Indoor pool, bigger better Library. “1. Getting more businesses and sit down restaurants in EM 2.Making developers water down construction sites so we don’t get as many big dust storms. 3,Slowing down the development of high density housing and putting in needed parks for kids and pets. ” Transportation and parking. We are growing faster than the roads can keep up and developers were allowed to make the streets too narrow to allow for parking on the street. Neighborhood streets are essentially one way roads with two way traffic. A freeway to I-15 Bigger home lots, more defined commercial area separate from residential Roads and escape routes out of EM in case of emergencies. reduce construction More healthy trees. Better rated public schools. We need a public city pool A Home Depot, I’m a bit concerned about infrastructure with all the new builds Enforcing people to not park on narrow roads, especially when it’s snowy Roads need to be wider wit more lanes Slow down the growth and hold builders accountable. Expand EM Blvd. We need more trails and community amenities. (Community theatre, community center, parks, etc.) More greenery, trees, water features, etc. Less big chain stores. Clean up the city. I feel the appearance of the city is important. And crappy looking park strips and flower tree and grass areas look like crap. Also, when homes don’t have a yard in for over five years, something should be done. Roads coming in and out of city center Better and more efficient roads\infrastructure to handle all of these people that the city is allowing to move here. Infrastructure, recreation for people who don’t want to be outside in the cold/heat more water, more space between homes, wider roads now, with how they cram so many homes in here and now with all the retail stores coming in its gonna only get harder to travel. i used to never have trouble leaving the home on pony express but for the last year or so its been getting harde rand harder to turn left on this road. soon there will be lights everywhere… which is a bummer. Utah really needs to stop packing in homes. but home builders care for the $$ not the quality of life. i get it. Traffic congestion leaving from and arriving to Eagle Mountain. Someplace to swim Infrastructure!!!! What do we do if there’s a natural disaster? There’s no OUTLET!!! Slow down on building homes and focus on attracting service business. Businesses that we residents can support. “STOP building apartments, condos and town houses!!! Start making lots bigger, garages bigger and keep the open feel that the city has been known for. Dont Screw it up any further.” Planning community and infrastructure upgrades to catch up with the rising population—and being careful not to grow quicker than we can handle. “TRAFFIC Stop building apartments! TRAFFIC and Roads” Less construction, fewer new builds I think a large rec center. Also main access street enlargement projects. It’s getting congested fast with all the builders in our area and surrounding communities. Change in leadership Fix the roads. Infrastructure Stop putting so many homes in, especially the multi-family homes. A rec center with a pool and classes for adults and children would be amazing. We are also very concerned about the increase in housing and that impact on water. Stop building houses. Enjoy natural landscape. We need a recreation community center. Lehi cannot contain all of us and Saratoga. We need more business and city development as a number one priority. roads, less home building Stop letting builders give orders to city hall. Develop roads & accesses to commercial developments according to engineering practices. Commercial access driveways do not belong on residential roads (feeder or arterial is fine). The access to Carson Commercial off Porters is too close to Pony and Bridleway Rd. This should have never been approved. Stop bending rules for developers at the Mayor’s will More business development. Roads in and out, access to more retailers. I feel that eagle mountain needs to remain a smaller city. Keep it unique and comfortable. “More focus on CITY CENTER!!! I have been a resident since 1999, living in City Center, and have seen EM grow from nothing. Along the way, priority has been given to the Ranches in city controlled (not HOA) landscaping; roads; city parks; draw of business; etc. It seems as though EM has forgotten that it is made up of both CITY CENTER and the RANCHES. We are a combined entity. There should not be, or have ever been, priority given. There were so many plans for CITY CENTER, such as the Mid-Valley Park (Cory B. Wride Park) or a Rec. Center, that we’re planned for MANY years ago, that were postponed for something in the Ranches. It seems as though CITY CENTER started getting recognized, finally, due to Facebook and Tyson and the population boom they have brought. There was a time when if people asked me where I lived, they actually had NO idea that CITY CENTER EVEN EXISTED!! To them EM was only the Ranches. That is so sad to me. No city should be split like that! I believe that if there weren’t the need for the continued need for more schools, CITY CENTER would still not have the road improvements we are getting currently. Many more children would still be enjoying the ‘bumpy road’ (Unity Pass or Sweetwater) from City Center to the Ranches. I’m happy that there are things for my grandchildren to enjoy in CITY CENTER. My children only wish that there were some of those things available to them so they wouldn’t have been so bored. It is understandable that there are going to be growing pains for a small town that just explodes in growth. Just remember that the city is a whole even though there may be a geographical feature between the parts. Thanks for reading the whole thing 😁” More businesses. I go to Saratoga and Lehi for most of my shopping. I don’t like all of my sales tax dollars going to another city. More Jobs, recreational areas, places for kids & teens to meet for activites, & more baseball fields. Planning More business Stop the high density construction. Enforce codes! There are homes that never had a yard put in, weeds out of control, junk everywhere and homes being turned into rentals with all the cars parked up and down the street are turning the city into the ghetto. Removing micri-groupings (such as having names for all the subdivisions or referring to areas within the city as “The Ranches” or “city center”) — it creates divisiveness and in-group/out-group biases. I’d like to see the city continue to grow together instead of feeling like it’s not worth getting to know people outside the subdivision. Keep high density housing to a minimum good question Stop building so many apartments and condos. Enough already!!! Realistic planning…the city has/had a city plan but it isn’t followed or is changed according to developers wants while community needs…roads, traffic signals, programs, a commercial tax base, etc are pushed aside under the guise of “good stewardship”. “Recreation Center. Less HOA rules and involvement ” Traffic flow & more stores in City Center. Roads to easily get around without needing to go miles around. Traffic on SR73 and being about to get out of subdivisions with no traffic lights. The traffic goes very fast and we wait longer periods to get onto the road. Less high density housing People parking on the narrow streets Less housing. It’s getting way too crowded. More green space. Land development that allows for .3-.5 acre lots. More zero-scaping in parks strips and public lands (the never looks good and is just a waste of water). Fix our broken land use, zoning, and development codes The amount of stores and amenities available. EM needs to become its own city and not be reliant on the other cities/county. Please stop adding high density homes. We love the country feel our here and don’t want to lose that. Better/bigger roads to get around easier City Rec Center The lack of enough exit streets out of town and the lack of a clubhouse or pools/swimming holes There needs to be more stuff to do A rec center “Beautification of the city and also the neighborhoods. I would really love one day to be able to pull into my nieghborhood and say to myself… “” I really love our nieghborhood it’s beautiful/gorgeous!”” Holding residents responsible for keeping their properties up to city code. Just because we live in a rural area doesn’t mean that people don’t have to water/mow their grass, or they should park cars/boats/trailers on their front lawns, or collect “”junk”” and pile it up everywhere, Ect., Ect. If the city started inforcing their own city codes/regulations and started issuing real fines for the violations, I wonder how many nieghborhoods would improve? ” Protect the openness and wildlife ecosystem More trees. Less dog poop. Larger lots for single family homes. Not houses packed so tight that you could spit in your neighbor’s window. The houses are much too close out here. Increase roadways in and out before building more homes. Water and stop building so many homes. Eagle Mountain needs to switch to their own police department, Proper infrastructure to current residents before allowing more residents and building of subdivisions. Pave Lake Mountain Rd!! More stores I would love to see a rec center with community pool or even just the pool for residence. “Hold HOAs accountable or get rid of them Do roads right the first time Anticipate the growth Keep up the landscaping in City center like you do in ranches ” They need to remember that we all moved here wanting a home and there are still many more people in Utah needing homes just like we all did when we moved here. No we do not want to be a west valley but Eagle Mountain is a huge City with a lot of land and we need to remember that everyone not only deserves a place to live but they can come to this great community and add to the great people already here. More business to support locals (but no more medical/dental please!). I would have said “roads” but everyone already knows that … You are already doing it! (Expanding and improving roads) There are a few larger trees off of pony express parkway and ports crossing parkway. More schools Somehow regulating all the over-aggressive driving out here. More trails and parks. Recreation Center & TREES! More businesses Business and road expansion to accommodate the people. Slow the growth! The roads are clogged with too many cars. Our once peaceful fields are filling with high density housing. Lack of affordable housing. If we’re going to continue to bring businesses like Tyson, their employees must be able to afford to live here. Patrol from police, including code enforcement. for those in the back, way back … SCHOOLS AND ROADS Safer better transportation, safer better schools LDS people need to better about not shunning and being real friends to the non lds kids in their neighborhood Community resources (businesses, swimming pool, rec center, etc) Roadways “Really like it the way it is I hate growth to the point there’s so many people. Nice how it is stop construction. ” “Cheaper housing More gas stations Street paint lines” Get better, more, and straighter roads. With all of Utah to use as an example who thought not doing a grid system was a good idea? Pony express and SR 73 are the only two roads into city center. And only two roads connect the two (and Ranches Parkway is ridiculously curvy). Do better kids getting to school safely Grocery store in City Center and less houses being built. We have one road and it already takes 15/20 mins to get out of Eagle Mountain as it is..more homes, more traffic. What’s so wrong with keeping Eagle Mountain rural? Access to stores and food So far I like everything The drama in the building dept caused by [REDACTED]. There is no moral there and it’s bad for the city Less high density housing and bigger lots Grocery store in City Center “We desperately need the Maceys built! But not a bazillion other commercial businesses. ” I feel like the growth of bringing business here is great. I think the roads could be improved to handle the increase in traffic. Stop building so many homes! residential on-street parking out of control, parking in curves, next to intersections, too close to neighbors driveways Protect green space. Plan for growth in a way that doesn’t make us feel big. Better communication on construction and road closures More local establishments, reducing the need to go to Lehi/American Fork and other surrounding cities to get errands done. Avoiding too much high density housing Larger lots, no more cramming 20 million houses/apartments/townhomes in a small space. Give us room to grow. Better roads. The congestion on SR 73 is beyond ridiculous. We need a two/three lane road from Saratoga springs to city center. There is too much construction traffic for the roads we have. Roads keeping it small, no more housing development More roads out of city center. It is too busy. Time to blow a hole through that mountain and make a tunnel. Baffles me that the united states doesn’t do that more when other countries are able to. My number one is a city pool with a recreation center. Why do we have to keep spending our money giving to Lehi to use theirs? More free events provided by the city, not ones that need to be paid for. Police force & infrastructure. Responsible Development. We need to get back to the Roots of Eagle Mountain and what makes it special. Eagle Mountain master plan was to have a community with open space and pathways between each development. The housing was designed for single family homes with porches, a minimum of 1/4 acre lots. pathways and parks in each development pod. The developers are greedy and the City has let them abuse the situation by allowing them to cram as many people in a small place as possible. There is not a place where people can buy a single family house anymore because of the housing crises. The damage this does to the community is that we are going to turn out like west valley. We need to be different and keep the space that we have. Keep the High density housing out. We also need to keep the light pollution down by using hooded lights and creating city light ordinances that keep the spotlights on peoples houses from blinding their neighbors. One of the great things that was attractive to me was that Eagle Mountain had a park city model versus a west valley model. We need to limit greedy developers from taking advantage, Better roadways and slowing down traffic in residential neighborhoods I would love a city pool/fitness center. I wish you would stop smashing the homes so close together, I understand getting bang for your buck for all these builders but I want eagle Mountain to have more space! Stop all the building Bigger house lots Stop building…water is low enough!! Support for the growth in population and therefore increased traffic and drain on our resources. Roads! Not just building more but repairing those that are damaged I wish the air quality was better, but that’s really not a municipal fix. I would love to see a rec center and a larger library. Provide all those construction trucks another way to get to the sites rather than Pony Express ROADS!!! We need wider roads and more ways in and out of the city in case of a city wide emergency “Making stores that open up hold a higher standard and uniform outside design. ” More internet providers Better planning for roads. The growing is much faster than the roads capacity More shopping and places to eat at. More local places to go to so we don’t have to leave the city for things to do. Limit high density development. Protect our open spaces. Smart development with the intention of keeping the city rural. Road infrastructure. We have too many homes and not enough roads to support them. Better infrastructure to support the growth. “Planning roads and infrastructure BEFORE allowing for more residential building. Preserving wildlife corridors, UTV and ATV trail accessibility (maintaining these even with building). ” Making sure we don’t exceed our water supply by overpopulating the area. Perhaps taking a breather on excessive building to make sure we are making wise and beautiful decisions. Infrastructure! We are going at such an incredible rate that the infrastructure can’t keep up! I’m seeing lots of development and I’d like to preserve natural areas and make sure we have the roads to support all these people moving in. Though transportation has improved a lot through the years, our city is growing rapidly. SR-73 needs to to be a freeway or at least a divided highway, and there needs to be a way to get from redwood to I-15 without stoplights (whether that be Pioneer Crossing or Pony Express Pkwy). Baseball program. The people running it aren’t a good representation of our city. To many people not picking up their dogs crap. Maybe a bigger sheriff deputy presence. Continued improvement to translation network. Less multi unit housing. People come to Eagle Mountain for larger homes and more land than they can buy in bigger cities. If you fill up our city with multi unit housing it will become a less desirable place to live. More restaurants, home improvement store, control on how many homes are built in order to avoid overpopulation and traffic Hold people more accountable for maintaining their front yards. Enforcing city regulations-like speed limits, garbage, animal limits attract more business (retail), ie, lowes, home depot, target. quickly use tax basis to get them to bring business to EM and not Saratoga springs. We can use the taxes they bring in. Stop the countless high density condos. Brings more traffics with no new roads and services. “The roads!! I don’t understand WHY they made the road without any shoulders! Almost EVERY left turning lane is too short and backs up traffic!! Why is Facebook getting millions in tax cuts?! Why does the Lone Tree subdivision only have one road to exit onto? WHY WHY WHY are so many homes being built when the city water system can’t handle what is already here?!” Maybe a store and more food places Business growth THE CITY NEEDS A DOG PARK. Stop the giant influx of housing especially multi family dwellings. Need more stores and services! Council/staff that have a direct conflict of interest and should not be in the positions they are currently in. Can’t think of anything Growth in commercial retail establishments, rec centers, wider roads, bike and walking paths, and with more and more homes (build them and fill the city with beautiful homes). Reduce the amount of communal living, seriously, I know they give good revenue to the city, but how many town homes do we really need. Most are bought by the rich and rented to the poor, so please cut that out. Bring in the Ivory Homes, and Others that can make a nice community. Please cut the townhomes. WE NEED A DOG PARK Lowe’s/Home Depot A rec center/city pool would be amazing, but I know that’s a big topic and I realize I don’t know all that goes into it. Dog park, hands down. I know it would be highly used and taken care of. And definitely a new school. There’s just not enough room for all the new building and the teachers are way overwhelmed. Community center would be nice. We need many things, but I feel the lack of an off-leash dog Park is eye-popping. As subdivisions fill in they have green space for residents and on-leash dogs. Not all residents have a fenced in yard to let their dog run for exercise or socialize with other dogs. Adding a dog park More commercial options and restaurants. Why give other cities the tax money that could go to helping our city? Smart growth. Right pace- good traffic management. Right balance of residential, commercial and industrial. Stop all the track houses and endless building of homes all squished together Larger Library A dog park and more accessible routes of driving Roads, Stores, Food places, Rec Center, parks Beautifying walking trails and offering more places to recycle cardboard. Restaurants , easier access to Mountain View Would like more stores, just build up the area where Macy’s will come in some day!? A dog park! Roads and schools “We need a dog park! I would use it ALL THE TIME. Preferably in a place easily accessible by City Center and the Ranches. Also: let’s get together with the rest of the county and create a county-wide library system! Think about how much EM citizens could benefit from having access to all Utah county’s libraries! Also: a rec center would be AMAZING! ” A dog park! Widen the roads and actually plan ahead for the growth! Major problem and it’s not like you don’t know this. Plan for the water need ! Roads/traffic Continued DARK skies at night and better control of the construction traffic and mess. Traffic and slow down building. We are growing so fast and I am affraid that roads cant handle all the cars. We also are in a drought and I dont want to run out of water. Stop building homes… More access points to 73. A direct road connecting pony express to 73 to relieve traffic through the Ranches. I know growth has to happen, but it seems so out of control right now. I also really hate all the construction traffic. Just the other day I saw school kids walking home through a road construction site. There are so many big trucks on the road. better road and development planning. Stop doing 5 year road improvement construction when housing development causes road improvements needed every year. Better roads Infrastructure like extending roads to two lanes and adding more light. A rec center Stop issuing building permits until we have more water!!! More commercial shopping in City Center Continuing with road improvements, I think if we could get some sort of crosswalk in the middle of Ranches pkwy it would help in the safety of people (especially children) crossing that street without a crosswalk. No more high density housing. Better communication between city and residents. Road infrastructure, removing trees from center lanes, distance from places The mayor needs to curtail the city staffs power to make decisions that should go through city council. slowing down the building of new multi family housing – we don’t have the water to support it or the infrastructure to handle all the traffic We need more businesses in city center and a community recreation center. Roads, more businesses, and get rid of HOA’s!!! Access. Two ways to get out here, both constantly under construction and addition of stop lights. Its taking longer and longer for me to commute. Traffic is a huge problem. Way too much speeding and too many accidents. Ability to use different internet providers if needed and wanted. Walking trails. “FEWER HIGH DENSITY HOUSING!!!!!!! STOP IT PLEASE More neighborhoods with nice homes, larger lots, but not ranch land. Like, a “”ritzy”” nice neighborhood. More businesses, but not trashy ones :D” Take better care of the aesthetics in city center. Stop requiring homes to install grass more than maybe 25% of the yard. Please also block cc&rs and HOA from reporting grass at all. We’re going to have drought for who knows how long, this is a desert. If we don’t plan ahead for water, we will shortly not have any. Better infrastructure. It seems the city was planned very poorly and isn’t able to sustain growth. We just need to continue to work to get more businesses in Eagle Mountain. Both retail as well as businesses that can be the primary income for a family. Roads. We need more routes, especially if the city keeps growing. If we are not increasing road capacity or routes, we need less people out here. It doesnt need changes, just stop trying to make it Salt Lake with building too many houses stacked on top of each other Making Eagle Mountain Boulevard 2 lanes each direction. Connect the road between frontier middle school and Cory Wride park to the highway. Stop making narrow streets and making them main roadways. No more condos/townhouse I’m new enough that this is a difficult question for me to answer. So far, we love the lower taxes and would prefer to keep it that way. Get business in here faster don’t give them the run around. When streets connect to a bother street with a turn median, the street should be labeled better, paint on the road & or Do not enter sign on the wrong side, just yesterday I saw a car take the wrong turn area at the intersection near Chevron on Pony Express. Where we are a growing city, we think many people or deliver workers, new teen drivers, we have even seen a large Semi & trailer turn in the incorrect spot on those intersections. More labeling may prevent future accidents. Clean up the brown places that are supposed to be green. Trails, parks, roadways. Less new housing. We could use more common community space. Ensure infrastructure is in place to support growth – without waiting until after the fact. Think carefully about the growth, placement of new homes/roads/businesses. I struggle to understand why we would put an elementary school on 73, and then put a Holiday directly across from it.. road congestion in the neighborhood and not safe for kiddos. Also many of the new planned roads quickly take quite neighborhoods into high traffic areas I think we need to address water availability and the amount of water we are using for our yards. I would love to see us be able to do xeriscaping instead of the vast amounts of lawn and for it to be encouraged and rewarded for doing so. Honestly, nothing. I moved here because I wanted to be away from it all, without being too far removed from the rest of society. We need to go back to our roots and stop becoming like every other major growing city along the Wasatch front. A dog park! It’s so badly needed! We drive to Draper several times a week to go to a decent dog park with shade and water. roads and businesses Communication on what all is going on to help improve the city as all of the new projects are coming to town and making a mess A rec center? We need a pool and fitness center. Keep apartments and high density housing out of EM. Put up more light posts in neighborhoods More businesses nearby fewer density housing areas. Too many people moving in without the necessary infrastructure. Only 2 ways in or out of the city. Transportation I can’t think of anything Accurate road construction signs. Commercial economic base. Less construction! I live in a neighborhood down the street from the Facebook building and the constant trucks is scary when you’re trying to cross the road. I’m grateful for what Facebook has done for our city but I’m so over the construction and constant road work and trucks. And I wish all the open fields along eagle mountain Blvd will stay undeveloped. Bring back the cows and stop building houses stacked on top of each other. “There needs to be something done to the trailhead at the south end of Porters Crossing. People are so disrespectful to the residents who live along the trail. There is constantly dirt everywhere from people driving way to fast down that road, they are leaving trash everywhere, and they are out all hours of the night keeping residents up. We also need some kind of recreation, a fitness center with pool. ” Trash cleanup along roads Better communication and response of city amenities and services. The mail service is also hit and miss. A lot of packages are lost or delivered to incorrect addresses. Commuting, I worry about our roads handling the growth of our city. People coming together Transportation! SR-73 is not wide enough. Lone tree subdivision needs an access road that connects directly to SR-73. Mountain View Corridor should connect at Ranches Parkway or at least have a protected turn from southbound to westbound SR-73. roads and less housing being built on small lots Clean up and beautify the city center. I have lived in city center for 23 years, and am frustrated with how many houses have dirt yards full of trash and weeds. I am also frustrated with the amount of vehicles on my street. It is a safety issue. Two cars can’t pass each other. The roads coming in an leaving Eagle Mountain city center would be amazing if we could widen Eagle Mountain Blvd. The city needs a rec. Center with before and after school care so that we can care and give activities to the children of Eagle Mountain. The closest activity center is in Lehi. We really need to be putting that money into Eagle Mountain. Roads. More locations for businesses, not just by Riddley’s and City Center. We shouldn’t create two cities divided by miles and miles of nothing but housing. Stop building houses More arts, less chains More big all ages/abilities parks&splash pads. There are so many kids in the area and that would be the most useful! “Traffic control/infatructure Stop the building of houses stacked on too of each other. Bring in restaurants and shops. ” More stores, restaurants, activities, etc. I like the growth. Roads, but also less dense housing. No more cookie cutter builder homes with no backyards that cost a fortune. No more businesses I prefer EM to stay rural. Roads and common area maintenance Recreation/aquatics center Move the street light from in front of our garage door. Widen the roads before more people move out here. Without a doubt, we need to get a handle on the rampet speeding! This place is a free for all on the roads. …and MORE BUSINESS!! Stop high density housing! Keep Eagle Mountain a place for homesteaders who want property and space! Need a pool and recreation center. a pool Roads widened Fishing ponds, more businesses Yard clean up. I live in a brand new subdivision and people need to be cited for their ginormous weeds. It’s an eye sore. I wish we had an HOA Road visibility – removing large trees/vegetation that makes entering roadways dangerous Too many townhomes and small lot homes. Enforcing things like the firework ban. An additional route to City Center. Need more Internet service provider options. XFinity out here would be awesome. A rec center and a Home Depot or lowes Mayor and some of the council needs to be more supportive of free community events and stop trying to cut them. We have large families and look forward to the free events for the kids. Making sure the city keeps free events Big business being allowed to expand into eagle mountain To not over build on housing. Putting a time limit on how many hours/day that dirt can be sifted in the Quarry for air quality here. transporte público y más negocios. las calles donde podamos caminar Stop building so much multifamily housing. The housing density is tricky, but we are shoving more people in a smaller space which detracts from the rural feel and strains the roads since everyone needs to go the Saratoga Springs to get the things they need. No more high density housing!! More parks and open space Slow down the growth to be able to keep up with the infrastructure. You can add x amount of homes but do we have the roads and water to serve them properly? Be more water-wise and promote localscaping transitions and require new homes and other projects to comply with drought tolerant landscaping principles. Maintain the community small town feel The most important change needed to improve Eagle Mountain is that there is not much to do within the city. We need a community recreation center, a city pool, and other businesses that offer entertainment or recreation for families. Eagle Mountain is an okay place to raise a family, but we have to drive 20-30 minutes to other cities for things, like a pool or a community center. Another improvement that needs to be considered is adding more roads in and out of city center. Roads – lots of issues with the roads. Quit building so many homes so quickly. Quit filling in all of the open space. It is sad! Access in and out of the city. You have allowed so much high density building that it is a danger only having 2 roads out Homes on bigger lots. There are way too many homes on the tiniest lots possible. Improvements in the Ranches. So much money is going to improve city center but I see the looks of the ranches falling apart since I moved here, fences run down, weeds in yard, very unkept. Park needs improvement- very old playground and splash pad, yet so many families live here, Can’t we improve upon this, it looks terrible Roads!! Shopping options More efficient ways to get in and out of Eagle Mountain—expansion of existing roads, adding new roads, bridge over the lake? Something! A freeway entrance or overpass? Public transportation! Anything haha More roads less multihousing units. The roads, how bad it is during rush hour. So many accidents Street lights. The streets are so dark we need more lights. It could make things safer. reduce water usage – save it for the citizens, More commercial growth and amenities. While many think that we need to be rural, I believe we need to strike a balance in housing, commercial, open spaces, and cultivating a little more of the city side. Stop trying to develop every inch of dirt. We don’t want our neighbors house 4 feet away, with no yards. We don’t have to keep building neighborhoods. HOAs need to allow less watering during drought Widening roads, more stores The mayor needs to remember not everyone is a hard core conservative like him Roads out of city center The turn lanes on Ranches Parkway and Pony Express need to be offset better so you can actually see the traffic when you are trying to turn. Growth, more business We need a Rec center with a swimming pool so we don’t have to go all the way to Lehi for swimming. More open space and a dog park Do a better job at managing the growth. Do we have enough water for all the homes being built here? Slowed development. We are headed to becoming West Valley but south, we do not want to live in West Valley, that already exists, we moved here because it is unique. more roads/access to 73, stop building so much. Limits on multi-family housing like condos. Transportation. There are limited roads to travel in and out and they get quite busy. I hate that more lights are probably the answer. Speeding! The speed limits are a joke, since no one follows them and drivers get angry when you do. To space houses out more. I think some of the new high density housing has been done really well and nice, and other parts seem very crammed. I would love to see code enforcement increased in neighborhoods without HOAs. There has got to be a balance between some extreme HOA rules and the slobby yards that plague many neighborhoods in city center. (not drought related, this problem has existed for years) To enforce individual homes to clean up and put in their yards. Many neighborhoods are looking junky and have unfinished yards full of weeds, and trash. Even open spaces are weedy. Still transportation and economic growth–as always! more small businesses Closer freeway access Improve roads Would love a rec center and home depot The dust situation when its windy. Grocery stores and developers who will build smaller houses (low-income housing). Also, a easy-to-access site for the city’s future infrastructure plans so people who move here will stop complaining that they moved here for ‘small town’ or rural vibes when that is definitely not the plan. Council members who don’t bag on multi family houses Communication about events in the city. I wish I could pull up a calendar on the website to see what events are coming up and information about them. The calendar that is posted is very limited and not user friendly. More commercial and less residential building. So many homes on such small lots! It’s hard traversing streets of neighborhoods due to the small roads and cars always parking on the side of the street. It’s beginning to get difficult to back out of my own driveway from all the cars parked across the street. Unity. More parks, less construction, water quality. Water conservation, wild life protection, trails in the mountains. I would like wider roads in the neighborhoods. A rec center with pool, and libraries that work together like SLC County Better traffic control and changing left signals so people don’t run red lights Less condensed housing, skate park for teens in the Ranches, protect the trails from development and add more trails. We have had issues with diversity. We are not members of the lds church and it’s very easy to feel isolated and left out. Keep trails and get more mountain biking trails Better access in and out of the area. Frequently re-evaluating speed limits and traffic patterns. No more homes! There is too much traffic and not enough open space Less building of homes. Irrigation water run to at least horse properties Stop building multi housing Youth recreation. Keep most of the beautiful space/nature that we have here, and don’t build so many houses. Expand and/or build more roads. ‘- better road access in and out of the city Stop developing dense housing. You have a unique opportunity to make Eagle Mountain awesome. Make lots a min of half an acre. Or at least build the infrastructure we need. 1. Bigger lots – we want a yard! 2. More stuff for teens – a well designed and built concrete skatepark 3. Traffic in and out of the city More policing on speed limits, people goes way to fast on Ranches Parkway and Pony Express Rec center would be awesome. More stores/restaurants 1) aquatic center 2) allow more businesses to build More businesses, how the traffic will be addressed for the growing community, housing prices. Less building, more parks….Better roads to accommodate more ppl We need a rec center and pool More sit down Restaurants Better water. I would love to see more trails and maybe a skate park and dog park. Better infrastructure and more businesses Making all the middle grass land in the middle of roads into an xeriscape. We also need a good dog park. We need a skate park in the ranches. It is become an issue as many teens gather to “skate “ by the Ridleys and the one in city center it has enter in disrepair ROADS! Roads More commerce and a recreation center. More commercial business such as restaurants and stores Less building, more preservation of wildlife areas. Landscaping in areas that don’t have any houses or businesses. There are weeds and unkempt areas. We need a rec center Roads and new elementary schools accommodating larger population. Smaller class sizes in schools. 25 students or less. No more town/condo homes being built!!! The roads need to be better to help with traffic. Traffic, roads Better communication with citizens, especially concerning things like road construction, detours, closures. I try to follow the FB announcements. I have email and text alerts. Still, I have been taken by surprise numerous times by situations or circumstances that the city should have advised about. This goes for advertising events too. We rarely hear about them in time to attend. Transportation. We need roads that can handle the growth before the growth happens. Right now we are behind. The natural “green “ spaces need to be maintained and improved. “Let maceys be built in city center! Stop promising that a business will be built by October and now we’re in august and it still hasn’t even been started! When road construction happens, let people know what’s going on and how long it’ll be going on for! Stop letting big rigs, construction vehicles (unless for residential) and Facebook traffic detour through neighborhoods! It’s really frustrating watching lines of cars detour through my neighborhood and everyone is speeding, because of the construction/road closer in city center, by the roundabout. ” Infrastructure , hope for more churches to come up here and have more diversity in the culture Stop the high density housing and over crowding. A Home Depot in Saratoga Springs Better access roads The city needs more businesses, especially in City Center. I know Maceys and Ace are on the way and that’s a great start. More shopping and restaurants will reduce commutes for daily life. Also continue to expand Pony Express all the way to Facebook. More businesses, such as restaurants, retail and grocery stores. Also, a Rec center with a pool. More businesses. Slow down house building. Let the infrastructure catch up Bring more businesses to the city so citizens don’t have to travel to other cities to products. Ensure infrastructure keeps pace with the growth. Roads and new businesses Not sure, there are many. My concerns are with the amount of construction going on simultaneously and a lack of coordination. The amount of trucks running up and down the major arteries of town obstruct traffic and are a hazard because they drop rock, dirt and debris on the roads that damage vehicles and can obscure driver sight. Ease of access to other areas in Utah and Salt Lake Valleys. Roads and traffic patterns need adjustment with all the increase in new homes More business Businesses and commerce. We need places to eat, shop, entertain, learn, and spend money in Eagle Mountain. STOP cramming houses as close together as humanly possible. Stop with the townhouses already! We want normal sized lots with normal sized houses. The infrastructure can’t support all this building! Traffic is a huge problem. Stop the townhomes. He have way too many. We need small houses instead. the streets, in a lot of places, are too narrow – back from when the city was smaller. People dumping trash where they shouldn’t. Too many multi-housing units. A few businesses so we don’t have to drive to saratoga springs. A road into Herriman City. Slow down growth and let the roads catch ip Stop greedy home developers. More retail businesses Roads to handle the growth New developers need to use larger lot sizes. It’s getting too crowded. It will look and feel like California. Some neighborhoods already do! We need large areas of land that keep that rural vibe.The Ranches needs a skate park. Roads and infrastructure to get here and commute to work More restaurants and stores nearby for convenience. More bissines More commercial options, like a Target! More community facilities. Corey Wride park is great but more gathering places are needed Needs a closer store Stop the building. You want us to cut back on our watering because of the drought. But what is the city doing to help. Giving out more permits than we have water for. Lol getting rid of my HOA I know it’s not the citys issue Larger lot sizes The growth of the City needs to slow down so infrastructure can catch up “Parking situations where the row homes are by Ridley’s you can’t have two cars go past each other and the visibility is terrible. To many new homes coming in and not enough restaurant. Our roads are already busy and it is just going to get worse. ] More commercial growth. Grocery stores, retail stores and home improvement stores. Sit down restaurants!

“A big library, rec center, pool, sports fields Better maintained public walk ways” More verity of internet services, better grocery store “recreation center- I know this would come at a cost. Library services to ranches residents.” There is really only one choice for Internet here, and while I am happy with the choice, it struck me as odd that there was no competition. Aquatics center the HOA doesn’t do anything Hoa’s keep building rec center’s, club houses, pools, as a result this costs the individual an large increase in hoa fees. If the city provided more services like these the hoa’s wouldn’t have to. More sit down restaurants Something for teens to do besides causing problems Services for children with special needs Recreation is lacking, there is so much more potential in our city. Businesses We need a dedicated police force and to spend less on frivolous money pit entertainment options for residents. I think the city is too focused on being involved in every event in eagle mountain. They need to step back. People keeping their yards and home clean over watering etc Shopping center Improved emergency preparedness Lack of teen activities and after school options safe for kids Rec Center, more classes/sports, groceries in City Center is being worked on, larger home improvement stores Red center and police force to help with the punks Recreation Center Community event center Radio stations, More events, more roads in and out of the city. Building too fast in city center and the roads can’t handle the growth. Would like to see more eating/shopping type places. Also, we were told that our backyard (mountain area) was too steep and would never be developed. It was just sold to a developer and is going to be built on now, with residents looking right into our home. We were lied to, and do not appreciate it. The city planning meetings are a joke. It doesn’t matter what residents say, the planning commission has already made the decision before the people are heard anyway. Anything for kids to do. Different types of businesses. Be more welcoming of small businesses. swimming pool for the community, more activities for younger teens, and more businesses The water pressure and flow in liberty farms since the expansion over the hill to Kiowa valley has suffered due to over expansion. In the winter the pressure is too high. In the summer at night when homes get watered, it’s too low for fightfighting pressure standards putting homes at risk if a pump truck is needed to extinguish a house fire. Recreation Center and Public Pool Secondary water would be the main one I think would be beneficial. Recreation Center and/or public pool NA Parks: not maintained well enough, too few parks. More free dumpster days to keep neighborhoods and yards clean. More street / gutter sweeping. More grocery stores & restaurants Some small and medium sized businesses. Recreation center The person to speak to about our water pressure has never called back or contacted us. So perhaps some additional employees. Recreation center, pool, Home Depot or Lowe’s type of store (bigger than Ace). Library services such as 3d printing Better internet options. More through Parks and Recreation, more summer camps, more community activities More adult group activities We need more food options Rec center and educational opportunities like Lehi’s Thanksgiving point curiosity museum. Community classes, etc. Gym, pool, rec center Diversity and quantity of businesses and work opertunities within eagle mountain As mentioned, a community recreation center. Items to help single parents. There is a lot for elderly, but nothing for singles married or not. Teen programs. More businesses, things for kids and teens to do (like a Rec center) not enough food places It would be awesome to get a rec center and maybe some groups or clubs for older kids. We have very few restaurants or grocery stores. Need to go to Saratoga Springs to do most/all of our shopping. No nearby park More recreational activities for families. More focus on quality of life We technically have a library but it is small. Saratoga Springs is also small. We should join forces with them (much like Salt Lake County) to create a larger system. Internet and cable provider choices More food options in city center, more wildlife preserves Code enforcement needs more help. Street parking and code violations (yards installed, weeds,etc) are never addressed. Services to support and encourage diversity and inclusion Park maintenance, recreation services/leagues Rec Center with pool and places for indoor free play Some form of a community center (community events center, community theatre, community rec center, larger library with additional community services, more senior resources, etc.) would offer the opportunity for all citizens to have a meeting/gathering place for various occasions. Additionally, it may be beneficial to some citizens for our city to be connected in with public transportation. City Recreation Programs Diversity/inclusion clubs or classes. More places to engage kids to reduce boredom which can turn into poor choices City center – pool – recreational lessons Having departments that answer the phone or return calls would be nice, we have given up trying to call More recreational opportunities. Hospital, Rec Center, Ice Skating Arena Schools and businesses Public transit such as trax. More Entertainment and food options Rec center, More parks, especially splash pads We need some sort of recreation center with indoor pool, tracks, courts etc. “More places for teenagers to go – bump track, skate park, parks, etc More places, like Swimming, for families to go together ” Google Fiber would be dope, like Provo. I wish that Eagle Mountain Utilities had a Landlord Agreement like Rocky Mountain Power and Dominion Energy. Rec center for all the kids Public transportation Rec Center Police presence in neighborhoods and not just at the annex station. Community building for activities. After school care through parks and Rec at schools for parents that work full time. Bigger better Library with more books. Recreation Center with Indoor pool A rec center A public city pool More parks and rec activities Affordable children’s sports Community building events and amenities Entertainment, Food Based on where I’ve lived before. It’s missing a recreational center, I also don’t have social media so it’s hard to know what fun events are going on without it. A community center would be great. We certainly don’t need more pickleball courts for crying out loud. Adult recreation activities the services they do have, fill up super fast and are crowded because of how large the city is becoming. Very little public transportation, no place to swim More Sheriff’s for assistance, someone at the fire station to be there if someone needs a safe place to go to. Right now there is NOT a safe place for a person to go who needs help! The city needs to build a rec center. There is no public pool in the entire city. Indoor gathering spaces Affordable recreation for families, retail commercial, commercial and professional services that provide jobs so leaving the city isn’t the only option. Entertainment for the same reason I’d love to see community classes offered through parks and rec A rec center for everyone, all inclusive. I also hope the city could do more to enforce not having so many dogs running loose. Although perhaps on this issue it’s us who don’t fit in here, because it does seem there is an overall attitude that dogs should be free to roam. Smaller towns usually have that attitude so perhaps Eagle Mountain has always been that and we just don’t fit in, but I’ve had a son bitten by roaming dogs so it’s a concern for me. A community Rec center Would like to see more recreational activities for smaller children (K-3) Recreational options for healthy living in the ranches “A swimming facility. A rec center such as the Legacy center in Lehi. It would provide a much needed indoor space for a variety of activities as well as the opportunity for a swimming club in our area and for the middle and high schools.” Shopping more kids activity like gymnastics, an indoor rec center for sports. Maybe a pool at the high school. Rec programs – sports, facilities for classes, swimming, etc. The rec department has very limited options…and isn’t even a community building to facilitate any indoor programs…sports, arts, music, community courses, historical preservation, theater, continuing ed, etc. Programs that can’t even be provided by separate non profit groups because there is not a location in the city. Recreation Center complete with swimming pool Options for groceries, gas, fast food, eating, fitness center Parking monitoring Glass recycling and “green recycling” A police force Water conservation and better communication of upcoming city plans and events Recreation is lacking although Carl wride park is fantastic I can’t go back to change answer, but I would. I think services provided are good. Would be great to have more things to do, places to eat, and more parks are always welcome 🙂 A recreation center, and better small park maintenance, aka autumn Ridge park (voles, dead grass and lots of holes) We need larger building lots like 1/4 to 1 acres then the houses are not jammed all together. A Recreation Center with a GYM & POOL in CITY CENTER. Code enforcement, police patrol Storm drain cleaning crew we pay for but don’t get any service from. We need other options for internet. Need more public transportation options More restaurants and dedicated police force Community center, not just recreation but a community center. Recreation center is really needed for families Rec center, swimming pool, youth sports programs Businesses. But, I’m not frustrated by it. I understand why businesses would choose elsewhere, and I’m fine driving elsewhere. big box home improvement store like lowes or home depot A rec center large enough to support the large number of families. Need a rec center. Whether that is through the city or through an outside source it would be nice to have a very large gym, pools (yes multiple ones), courts, etc… Especially for the winter. Recreation center with a pool Post Office, Indoor Rec Space Internet services, stores (Home Depot or Lowes), make initiative to attract community desired businesses (ie: Target, Home Depot, Winco). We need more city accessibility in the ranches. Get other INTERNET companies..WE NEED CHOICES!! Green waste- more neighborhood locations for clean up A recreational center We need more internet options. Direct Communications is not very good at communicating Weekly recycle pickup, park services, and stop allowing HOA More internet and tv options would be great. There is no where to eat, bank, shop, tan, gym, or get hair done. Recreation Department should have summertime on site people to check out sports equipment etc. Building and Planning needs to hire more employees to help answer phones. We need more commercial to support the growth in residential We are big enough that we should consider getting out own police department. A public pool would be nice too. Library is tiny (workers are amazing there though. We love them!!), no pool or anything to do as a family in EM a bit of all. we are growing fast, and the amenities out here aren’t keeping up. More shopping and places to enjoy a night out. “Vehicle speed enforcement ” Banks, shopping, dining in City Center A dog park Private business I feel the city has a lack of public events that are free to the residents. I feel council has put limitations on this area and it is very disappointing. We are a very young population with a lot of kids. These types of activities bring families out when they wouldn’t otherwise be able to. More internet service providers. Again dog park and more schools. Better parks and rec management and an off-leash dog park, It needs a dog park. More stores and restaurants further downtown would also be nice. Dog park City Police force, large enough library, community center Restaurants, skate park (not in cc) More animal control. Someone to do drive arounds and take more control on non lease pets Building business and infrastructure such as dog park and swimming pool. A dog park, a rec center, and a county-wide library system. The EM library isn’t bad, but it is limited. We need to be combined into one system with the rest of the county. Dog park. It’s a big need for the area. Lots of people have dogs and having a safe, fenced place to take them and allow them to socialize both with other dogs and with people will make the dog population a lot more well rounded and friendly. City Pool! Community center! We need a rec center dog park, children free rec options A rec center Fireworks Dog Park, community center, pool. City Center needs Maceys to actually get built. We need more restaurants, clothing stores, activities for kids, Excel Eye Center, Utah Valley Pediatrics, and eventually a Costco… Having to drive 20-30 minutes to get emergency supplies is not very convenient. Restaurants and recreation center Sports programs. Literacy. Community Events. Pool Ordinance enforcement, public area maintenance A community recreation facility with community outdoor pool like Lindon. Restaurants and stores Some sort of Rec center would be fun. More sports for kids and adults. We need a recreation center. A rec center with a swimming pool. A pond would be amazing! City Rec Center As with any growing city, I feel like the city could incorporate more with the growth. Maybe a REC center/pool. I would be willing to pay more in property taxes. All services A pool Grocery stores, recreation centers, Grocery shopping. Fast food. But we all know it’s coming. Post Office, Indoor Event Venue More restaurants, pet services. ASL interpreting for city meetings and council meetings. Or provide close captioning for recorded meetings. Recreation Center and Pool. Public transportation Good Code enforcment I think that services are missing such as a recreation center. I know this doesn’t come easily or cheaply and the need to prioritize this is under things such as roads, but I think a place where the community can go to recreate is a good idea. Grocery stores other than ridleys (maceys needs to hurry scurry) Library activities are sorely lacking. I would also love to have a community pool here. City sport teams for kids More recycling and green waste I clicked the wrong button and feel that Eagle mountain has sufficient services. Better code enforcement to improve the look and feel of the city A grocery store in city center. Clicked wrong answer. I’m fine with services provided with by the city Rec Center with a pool Bigger library and rec center Recreation center/city pool Swimming pool and a recreation center. Recreation They need some type of recreational services for the kids Rev center The recreation department is a mess. They have outsourced just about everything and it is not beneficial to the residents. Nail salon, tanning, more gas station in CC, Lowe’s, sit down restaurants. ‘- recreation center Skatepark, community arts/recreation programs Rec center, craft store, restaurants, big hardware store, department store business & recreation A rec center and pool. We have a massive population that needs this. City outdoor pool and rec center Rec center, better library More Food options , too small of a public library. A rec center and/or gym, we need a dog park! Better parks and recreation You keep letting more and more people move into the city. Our infrastructure cannot handle it, including the roads! I understand widening some roads for this reason. But we still need more! Also it seems that the ranches area is favored, it has all the shops and they get built quickly. City center has very little and they took for ever to be built! Need better access to libraries on a county level. Park maintenance has suffered. City rec leagues are chaotic and schools are over crowded because of high density housing Better park maintenance and lawn care Internet Rec center Restrooms and drinking fountains at some of the smaller parks for those of us with little kids who can’t make it back to our house in time even though they went to the restroom before we left. City Center also needs a grocery store and more food establishments. Recreation isn’t just parks. I would like to see a pool, an indoor venue for dances, basketball, etc. Medical facility availability Recreation ( city pool, gym, etc) and arts Pickleball courts. A rec center/swimming pool. A post office. More restaurants/businesses. A hospital for sure and a library that is more centrally located. Grocery stores and small businesses. Code enforcement (I know we have it, but nothing is enforced) Emergency services, fire and law enforcement reaction times are slow. Need another fire station and a LOCALl police department with a sub station in Ranches area. A rec/ community center Police department Restaurants and stores nearby There are lots of smaller parks and trails but those are harder to use with little kids because they don’t have restrooms or drinking fountains. Despite using the restroom before we leave my kids suddenly have to go again and usually there’s not one close by. City Center is also in great need of food places and grocery store.

Please do something with the medians between overland and city center. They look terrible. Currently recycling only comes twice per month. Would like to see it increased to weekly. Pony Express road project is taking a long time and is making that road very inconvenient to drive on. The construction crews don’t seem to consider cars driving on these roads at normal speeds. Also, I get really upset about all the watering in the middle of the heat during a drought. Building and planning seem to be more focused on developers vs citizens It would be awesome to have weekly recycling pickup rather than bi-weekly. I wish we could find a way to have speed bumps like many of the other Utah cities do. The snow removal excuse can’t be valid if other cities have them. Could we please get the recycling to be weekly? Please have a company that allows greater variety in recycling. Road repair is often shoddy and takes a long time. The city is way too concerned about street appearance when more money could be put to other services to better serve their citizens. “We need to make sure not to have so many condensed housing in our city. We DON’T HAVE enough roads this way. Traffic is getting out of control. ” Less lights, more roundabouts I don’t know who is responsible for the land on st Andrews under the power lines but it is always a mess with litter. Maybe a trash can at one end would help. The landscaping in city center City managers need to monitor developers and hold them accountable We’ve got some areas that have been around for a while now in EM and the sidewalks are getting bad. Recycling more products like glass. Snow removal has not come to my neighborhood “I moved to eagle mountain for the small town feel and honestly don’t love all the businesses coming in and the growth happening. I recognize that cannot change so my hope is it will be limited in a way that the city can handle. I wish recycling could be every week. We throw so much away that could be recycled. Many homes and properties are becoming older and are not being cared for and I think it makes the neighborhoods look blighted and that reflects on the city. I wish we had more recreational programs for teens. ” Utilities are ridiculously expensive compared to other cities. Upkeep of city spaces ie: parks, sidewalks, medians, open areas is severely lacking. It looks like a dump in several areas of city center. I could not rate the amenities the system did not let them change the numbers Eagle mountain has the bumpiest city streets of anywhere I have lived. Not sure if we have different geology or just poor roadbase preparation. Just my 2 cents. The weeds are getting huge by the bike path on Bobby Wren Blvd “Allowing ATVs and UTVs to roam the streets has become hazardous for children in our neighborhood . Meadow Ranch. ” Please be more aware of cars parked for extensive time periods, or illegally during snow season. Especially on Lookout Dr. Cul-de-sacs are often ignored for snow removal and street sweeping Something NEEDS to be done about the empty lot with weeds that is just west of the firestation on Pony Express and Plum Creek Drive. The weeds are often more than 4 ft high. This lot is city property that has turned into a mice and snake infested area. Because it is so close to the most densely populated area of this city, it should be a high priority project. I would love to see more attention paid to dead limbs on trees, and weeds that are dangerous to dogs and kids. I do spray a few weeds around my house to keep dogs and kids safe but I do it fearing negative retribution from the city. Water pressure is inadequate. Would love the option to have green trash bin for grass clippings The street I love on is only ever plowed 1 lane instead of the whole street. The city also needs to take care of people parking vehicles and trailers on the street when plows need to get through! Need better cell service, when direct communication goes down, the cell providers – verizon in paticular can’t handle traffic. Also, why another dairy queen and ace? Lets get a walmart or lowes, home depot chik filet. Lets gets some entitiea that can provide good tax base and also make it so we don’t have to travel to af for everything The landscaping crew is great! They should receive major kudos for the work and care they provide our city surroundings. Great crew! Sometimes I feel that our city operates as if we are still small. It is growing too fast and there needs to be considerations and administration for that. I know there is chat that EM is supposed to grow to a large city, I am super concerned about the infrastructure. The roads. The utilities. Etc. If there was an emergency we would be in really big trouble for any type of evacuation. I know we want business and growth. let’s not be like every other city. Saratoga Springs is already doing that by brining in businesses that are literally in every city. We don’t need that. Let’s get businesses that aren’t. Recycling should be free, and it should be taken every week. The recycling company can sell our recycle products to cover the costs. We need a new skatepark!!!! Preferably in the Ranches. A concrete park may cost a little more but it will save the city money with maintenance and repairs, not to mention safety. There’s too many teens skating on private property and in streets because they have no where to go. The metal skate park should be torn down. It’s not safe and the location premits too much vandalism and drug, sex and alcohol. As a road cyclist, our road shoulders need to be cleaned more often. They’re fairly dangerous for bikers. Weeds within the city center area could be better maintained. Eagle mountain is great through ranches then city center seems to be over looked I find the communication from the city very helpful to stay informed, I would love to receive the same communication for the recreational sports and so on. Take care of grass by eliminating much more weeds I’d love to see fireworks on 4th and 24th! On street parking is bad in the Highlands on the Green subdivision with trailers and RVs on the narrow streets frequently. Even cars make driving difficult. Should limit parking to one side for safety. It would be nice to have recycling every week! We need better traffic enforcement. Ranches parkway is like a speedway. The water bill still says I only used 14 gallons of water yet they charged me for 1,400. Please add units to the water bill. We need a community pool. Recycling pickup should be weekly and we need a glass recycling drop off in the city. Weeds in city center are out of control. city maintenance workers that I’ve met have been friendly and service-minded. Good people! 3rd party contractors, not so much. 😉 Engineering has been non-respondent. Planning takes awhile to respond. I live on lake mountain road and most of the time you do an ok job of maintaining it, but the most resent grading job that was done is horrible. There are big holes in the road, a section of the road is a sand pit which gets deeper everyday and I really don’t appreciate having a trench dug in front of my property especially were the mail person has to drive up to my mailbox. From what I understand from a planning commission meeting lake mountain road is the most expensive road to maintain in the city, for that money i would think that it would be better taken care of. I would hope that it would be paved one day. Across the board I’m quite satisfied and hope that the satisfactory services continue on as EM maintains its current and future rapid growth. All the storm drains in our neighborhood (Silverlake) are covered up which causes some flooding in the roads when it rains. I’m sure there’s a reason for this but hope it’s done soon. Nolan park is always dead and the soccer goals are broken. “a green waste option would trash services would be well used. as for street cleaning, it’s terrible on both neighborhood and major roads where there is a lot of construction going on. especially SR-73, and the intersection with Mt. Airy” Stop high density housing. The city has done such a great job maintaining our roads it’s great to see the change towards prevention. I would love for the city to consider the addition of a dog park Better affordable internet service and cable please “There needs to be more patrol on Kids in seat belts!!! I see every Sunday a baby in the front seat or a Child jumping around the cars without seat belts. ” Need a recreation center and more sport options. I would love to see a multi sport option. Need more schools! Change the zoning from some residential to commercial for consumers to keep money circulating in Eagle mountain instead of going to competitive cities like Saratoga springs or American fork and Lehi. We need to widen sr73 The canal behind our house only gets addressed about twice a year and is always just overgrown. I’d love to see some sort of zeroscaping so the city doesn’t have to worry about it anymore and so we don’t have to keep dealing with the eyesore and constant overgrowth of weeds. Please set up occasional speed traps on Pony Express Pky. I’ve clocked speeders at 60mph & speeding through school zones. I love Mayor Westmoreland, he is the best!!! I love Eagle Mountain. I grew up here. I have lived out here since 1999. This is my home town. I want to see it grow into something amazing and not end up the west side of Salt Lake City. I would like a blinking light on the crosswalk on the blvd in front of the landing Parking enforcement needs to be done. As it is I question that we even have any. Most neighborhood streets are extremely dangerous to drive on as they are too narrow for street parking which has caused most to become one way roads with two way traffic. We have a city area right behind our house that is FULL of weeds. We have had to go pull some of them that grew taller than our fence. You can barley see the flowers it’s sad. Garbage and recycling comes really early Many of us have shown a huge increase of water usage in the summer when there hasn’t been a change of habits or sprinkler routine. I don’t know how that could be possible. The new paving on Pony Express has been unpainted for too long. It’s very dangerous to leave it without any clear marking for lanes. Why are there so many bumpy roads all over Eagle Mountain?Especially southbound Pony Express South of Unity Pass. Recycling should be picked up weekly. The city water is undrinkable in my opinion With all of these huge construction vehicles our roads are being ruined. There’s not enough space on the road and I’ve already had to replace 3 windshields in 1 1/2 years due to rocks and I don’t speed, (shocker I know) stay far back, however when your in EM BLVD coming or going out of CC there are always rocks flying! Very few cover their loads and it become dangerous when they pass and sandblast your vehicle. Y’all know what that’s like yet no ones doing anything about it. Too many people speed, honk, give rude gestures when you do go the speed limit and there’s no one around to enforce that. There needs to be speed traps and maybe just maybe it would be a safer place for all! Cover your load!!! We had to cover our “load” in Iraq (tip of our weapon to keep the dirt out) for safety why don’t these vehicles?? Try being a bicyclist and getting hit with one of those rocks. It could kill someone! We need to hurry up with this infrastructure or else we’re going to be in HUGE TROUBLE if a natural disaster hits this side of the mountain!!! The roads during construction here are the worst I have ever seen. A few weeks ago there were massive drops in pony express road out near the high school. Now they have put up insanely high mounds along the roads. It’s fees super careless towards citizens who have to drive these roads every day. There’s aren’t mamy other options for getting around out here so making the main roads as drivable as possible, even while under construction, shows respect for the citizens. As the Eagle Mountain demographics change, the crews who work for the city need to understand that we don’t all drive trucks and jeeps and 4-wheelers. Eagle Mountain is changing. Please don’t let cars park in the street during winter! Equal priority between City Center and the Ranches None Our city has so much potential but we are at a critical time in our development. The current system of putting in high density homes, under dark skies, without adequate roadways coupled with no community programs or commercial areas and in several areas (currently)no safe way for students to get to and from schools…it is a recipe for disaster. I want to be excited for the future of our city but my concerns are too great and I don’t see any course correction. Too much high density right next to established single housing subdivisions Too much housing and not enough roads to accommodate it. Please stop building so many Better street repair, better park maintenance for the small community parks, less grass for churches and water retention ponds through out the community, we feel like the small town feel is starting to dissappear rapidly in the past 2 years. Lake Mountain Rd us a wreck and ruins our cars!! Not there is a big place on the road where they dug up the base and this winter it will be a dangerous mud hole!! The library should have more story times and activities for younger kids Sidewalks on dove way could use some attention to correct bumps. Would prefer more police patrols and enforcement. Kids riding ATVs without helmets, speeding down public roads. I wish there were more speed bumps or something like that to help control the speeds on the hills specifically by Nolen Park!! Grateful to be a part of such a great community! Thanks for all you do! Utilities are very expensive for low income Bike lanes on the roads often appear to have gravel and sometimes debris. Information on bike paths and trails would be great! I would like to know the best and safest places for road cycling. It seems like there are some good bike lanes but they don’t always appear safe because of the gravel/debris. The soccer park across from Cory Wride is dangerous and insufficiently maintained Thank you for all you do! Keep eagle Mt a small community, you’ve let too many developers in. Too many people, not enough resources. Most of us moved out here for a small town. moving within 2 years due to highly congested residential streets Recycling has been a nightmare and only collections from us half the time it should, so we often had times it wasn’t picked up at all during the month. We are no longer going to recycle since we can’t rely on pickup Would love a rec center. And yes, I am ok with higher taxes for it. Need more roads. Eagle mountain is over populated with what we have now and we are still growing. Tunnel that mountain I wish you would offer your spring cleaning dumpster program in a way that would help those of us without trucks. Like how SLC does it We have a great City that does a great job of repairing the roads. Government officials should be required to sign “conflict of interest forms” Stop all the building. We had some damaged sidewalks in front of our house that were repaired by the city. There did a wonderful job and we very professional. Thank you! Our kids experience racism here. Hidden Park is neglected with weed control in the parking areas. The street (Sunset Drive) in front of Black Ridge Elementary and Sunset Storage isn’t cleaned and therefore has so much dirt in the gutters weeds are growing in the gutter dirt. I wish recycling came every week. My recycling van is always overflowing weekly, where my trash can only has a bag or two in it Need weekly recycling pickup Our water tastes gross and always has City needs to hire more employees to take phone calls and help residents with questions. Street repair was horrible in the product used on Riva Ridge road in lone tree. It ruined our brand new street. Building department needs to not rely on email as only form of communication. I have had a open permit now for almost year trying to get in contact with them and every single time I send email I get response that it can’t be read. Have tried with 3 email addresses. No phone number to contact them. I don’t think one form of communication is smart in any business. Eagle Mountain does awesome with all services it provides! I would love to see a recreation brevet in the future, but understand the financial burden that is Please enforce the city code as far as weeds, and trailers and cars parked in/on the road that are not being driven or used. City entrance via EM Blvd needs 4 lanes NOW, where is landscape improvements with the new construction along EM Blvd. Five intersection in 0.4 mile on a primary road shows poor planning and traffic management. Need a dedicated dog park Why isn’t snow plowed on the sidewalls in front of the neighborhood parks?! Our water is terrible and we cant drink it or even make ice with it. “Move recycling, add green waste pickup. More crossing guards allowed per school where needed” There are SO MANY BAD SIDEWALKS in City Center. One I know of has a gap of at least four inches. Great job. Always been very helpful and pleasant! Please bring more free events to the community. Other events ran by outside organizations often cost money, are poorly organized, and armature. yes, thanks for what you’re doing, my comments are to reduce condensed housing (making EM a the low cost townhome style housing of utah county). Increase the beautiful .25 and up acres lots with nice homes on them, not crap homes, but nice homes. Add rec centers that we pay to use, and other commercial retail and commercial in general. No more town homes that the rich buy and rent to the poor (I know this isn’t all cases, but it is for a high percentage of the town homes our here). “Government officials should sign conflicts of interest form. There should be more dog parks (off leash and on leash)” If there are going to be laws about on street parking, vehicles not parking to where it reduces traffic flow, and vehicles left on the street for more than 3 days, then enforce them! Pioneer subdivision is a nightmare for driving! We need a real dog park! I really do think a dog park would be loved and highly utilized in EM. As I mentioned earlier in this survey, I feel a simple city library is not enough. We need to be connected with every other library in Utah county. It should be one library system like Salt Lake County or Davis County have. Some areas on the bike path that have not been fixed for 2 years We wish recycling would come weekly. We have stopped recycling because it’s more of an inconvenience with bi-weekly services. City planning is not great. We are feeling the effects of a larger city with the larger population. Crime seems to have risen. New home building has gotten a bit out of hand. I’m very unhappy about sprinkler repairs and water waste! Need to pay more attention to trails Communication between the city and the residents is awful. I have no idea when or where anything is happening. I had no idea about Pony Express Days, Silverlake amphitheater events, detours during construction, City meetings or other events. I learn all of these things from other city residents posting on Facebook and it’s usually after the event is over or has started. The city webpage is not intuitive or never seems to be up to date. Just hope we can enact smart laws about fireworks like other cities have done, rather than ban them completely. Didn’t spend any time in Eagle Mountain during celebrations in July–went to other cities to celebrate. This alone might affect our decision to move to another city if Eagle Mountain continues to practice this. There are a lot of pot holes… Notice about the resurfacing of streets was poorly communicated. Wind blew the notice off my door and I found out from a neighbor around midnight the night before streets were redone. We were told we would be notified in about 2 weeks with 24 hours notice. It was 2 months later before anything happened. I had deliveries scheduled for appliances and had to change them last minute. Also had to change grocery and package deliveries last minute and was not impressed. More notice would’ve been appreciated. End work looks great though. “Whenever they do the “”slurry seal”” on the roads, it looks awful. The edges where the street meets the concrete sidewalk/curb are always messy (not straight lines) and make the streets look like crap I feel like we could use more street sweeping as well ” The sheriffs do a great job at (1) not preventing crime, (2) not solving criminals acts, (3) not working collaboratively with the citizens. I am dismayed at little they accomplish when items are brought to their attention. It’s as though they get paid to not solve issues. I like Eagle Mountain for its rural feel, wish for it to remain that way I would like to see animal control enforced ticket baking dogs and unleashed pets The only road that is currently the roughest is Saddleback Drive. It feels like our car is on the back of a horse. Lol Our family would love a city Recreation facility, like the one in Lehi or Lindon, Provo, perhaps as the city grows, or with local companies sponsors, we can build a facility like that in our area. Would like to see the parks better maintained, lots of weeds/trash. Would also like to see some barriers to keep ATV, motorized traffic off the grassy areas in the parks. Would also like to see clean up in neighborhoods – homes with out of control weeds / amount of trash and other materials built up that the city does not seem to do anything about. I am happy with city services. The only possibility would be to have recycling come every week. We really need a decent dog park, and the skate park doesn’t accommodate the number of kids that use it. Streets are in disrepair from all of the construction vehicles allowed to beat them to death. Departments working on the streets are not following the MUTCD or other state and federal construction laws and regulations. need to be more proactive on park maintenance and street repair. also need to enforce keeping roads clean and cars off roads when constructing City services are great other then the road issues. Really really need rec center in Eagle Mountain. Can we do recycling every week? The sidewalks need to be redone. It’s hard to push a stroller on them because they are so bumpy and cracked. Thank you for evaluating risk reward relative to the dryness of our current situation and fireworks restrictions!! So awesome. Roads need higher quality paint for lines Use the Provo tactic and get someone to start funding the rec center out here. With pools and slides and a gym and it will pay for itself in no time Keep up the good work! I would like to see improvements made in the ranches, the parks, general cleanup- fixing fences, cleanup yards, weeds etc. and would like to see the cats that are running loose every night and digging up my garden, and the dog liter picked up around on the sidewalks- general people taking pride in Eagle Mountain- I see tons of money spent in the City Center, but some of us do not make it out there very often and we would like to see our park in the ranches improved as well Thank you for the hard work! I know it’s not easy, but you are doing great! Build more roads and expand lanes. Instead of wasting money rebuliding and maintaining the medians all the way down pony express just rip them out and add lanes… those trees planted in the median are obstructing our views while drivingng they need to be removed. Stop allowing the multihousing.. it’s making the city look like trash. The houses are being built too close to the main roads…one day we will need to expand those roads… think ahead people. Why are we building so much? if we are in a drought… doesn’t really make sense. The city does a good job making things look nice. I wish the turn lanes on Pony Express and Ranches would be fixed so you can actually see the traffic flow. I am not sure who to contact about that street issue. Please please please build us a Rec Center with a swimming pool for the kids and lap swimming for adults. Recycling should be every week. Every other week is not enough and a lot of recyclable materials are being just thrown away. I’m not sure why the city didn’t send out notifications about the construction at the roundabout and the days when access to the high school was blocked. That would have been helpful. I think it would be great to have some kind of green services. I have seen other cities have a third trash bin. The first is for regular, everyday trash. The second for recycling. The third is for green waste such as tree branches, weeds, grass clippings, etc. I believe those cities have pickups just once a month, but I think it would still help those of us with modest green waste but would like a place to dump that without using the regular garbage. The laser show and concert was super fun. We love all the awesome stuff going on all the time here! The weed control around the rodeo grounds and the walking paths/sidewalks along Eagle Mountain Blvd is bad. Not only does it look bad, but when the plants turn to tumbleweeds they get absolutely everywhere? Building department should actually help people. I would like a city recreation center with indoor and outdoor pools. There are a lot of us here in the city so it needs to be big enough. Look at Unincorporated Jefferson Count in Colorado for a very nice system of recreation facilities. Please fix broken sprinklers Travel on St. Andrews from the power lines to Pony Express Elementry School is awful due to too many vehicles parked on the street. Though the new no- parking signs by Ridley’s helps – there needs to be more off limits zones. Expand the library. It’s too small. Build our own police team. Would prefer that recycling came each week instead of every other week. We need a dog Park Sewer/water cost is really high Please be consistent with code violations in neighborhoods. Some people with beautiful yards are being harassed for two inches of fencing and wind chimes but others in the same neighborhood are ignored with their waist high weeds and garbage that they’ve done nothing about in the last seven years. Our street is never cleaned or plowed. The city-owned space in front of our house is mowed but never watered. Trees are cut down but not repaired. There’s a ton of constant new high density housing without adequate roads or road housing or even the recreational parks to go along with it. And it’s INSANELY difficult for businesses to build out here. Utility costs have more than tripled in the past three years with all the changing hands. Crime is up. The traffic lights near the Ranches entrance are in massive need of road dividers to prevent such frequent accidents. Where’s the police department? The cemetery? The flipping POST OFFICE?? Focus more on building community. Give people a reason to want to COME to Eagle Mountain instead of leave it for 99% of their daily activities. And please…build a rec center 🙏🏻 The new city information guy isn’t as interactive with the community as Linda Peterson was. Now others have been speaking for the city when it should be a one point person Need more options for internet out here. I also wish the new builds and businesses would start with a flip the strip mentality instead of putting water sucking grass everywhere. I would love to see more crossing guards especially around the schools, and even more now that there will be more traffic at the schools. Cars shouldn’t be parked along busy roads in neighborhoods. “We would love to have recycling pickup weekly. Love the utility office employees. They are always helpful and friendly.Always see city trucks out and about maintaining, repairing, and beautifying our city, more than in any other place I have ever lived. Thanks for the hard work guys. Parking enforcement seems to be non-existent. Sewer costs are very high. I remember when my utilities, including gas and electricity, water, garbage and sewer were only $100. The City grew too fast placing a heavy burden on the residents. I see a great deal of streets and sidewalks in disrepair The amount of water being used in city parks during the drought could be adjusted. Pave all of Lake Mountain Rd to provide a safer exit for people near the top of Eagle Mountain Blvd. We never see police patrols or street sweepers in my neighborhood. Notices to the community go out at the last minute for many things. I’d like to see public transportation extended into City Center. Would like to see more homes with cleaner yards and no abandoned junk in their driveways or surrounding yards Need to issue more speeding tickets I feel the city is too big for one city service. On my road there are several road repairs that no one is responding too. several neighbors have called for a couple of months and no response. The ranches parkway has too much city space to maintain and I dont think you can keep up with it all. My biggest complaint is the taste of the water. I have kidney problems and having to buy water is expensive and in convenient I am concerned that the city spends too much on recreational services that could increase taxes” Stop developers building 3 story houses too close to one another. We need more diverse internet options. And the county deputies don’t enforce any traffic laws. I rarely see them with anyone pulled over. I see more state troopers doing that work than deputies and they aren’t even the contract police. Traffic violations are out of control The laser show was awesome. More stuff like that! 🙂 And more often!
