Transit Center vandalized Someone shattered a glass door at the Kimball site The Park Record The Kimball Junction Transit Center was vandalized earlier this week after someone shattered a glass door and caused damage to an inside wall, according to the Summit County Sheriff’s Office. At around 5:40 a.m., dispatch received a report from the Summit County Public Works employee that someone had broken the stone off of one of the pillars and threw it at large glass door, damaging a bench and wall inside the transit center, located on the west side of State Road 224 behind the Sheldon Richins Building on Landmark Drive. 1 scribed as about 5’10, with light brown hair. He has not been located. “Our detectives are working really hard to try and find this guy. We don’t know if it is the same guy that we have had shown up there in the past and had asked to move along, but we are trying to get surveillance from nearby businesses,” said Lt. Andrew Wright, with the Sheriff’s Office. “We have had some transient people come through there in the past, but this was by far the most significant incident since it was opened.” By Thursday afternoon, the door had been boarded up and all the debris removed. The Summit County and Park City Councils had a ribbon cutting in December for the Kimball Junction Transit Center December. It was built to serve as a bookend to the Old Town Transit Center. The building is open daily from 5:30 a.m. until 1 a.m. The cheese keeps melting. 2 0 1 6 BE ST O F STATE WINNER F I NE D I NIN G E U R O P EAN C ANGELIQUE MCNAUGHTON/PARK RECORD M A stone removed from the pillar of the transit center was reportedly used to break the glass.

The bills-- HB 308, HB 309 and HB 310– would implement new requirements for the state health department and local agencies. It would mandate the creation of an online education program about preventable diseases to allow the vaccination exemption form to be completed online and create the Utah Statewide Immunization Information System, among others. The bills would also amend the grounds for exemptions from required vaccines. Rich Bullough, director of the Summit County Health Department, said he does not support the bills because the current process is “getting us what we need,” including face-to-face interaction with parents seeking exemptions. “We are all for customer service and we are not trying to make this hard on people, but we want to make sure they get the information they need with respect to wellness and the risk,” Bullough said. “We just want to ensure the opportunity to have the conversation with them about the risks.” Earlier this week, HB 308 and 310 were unanimously passed out of the state House of Representatives, while HB 309 passed with a vote of 60-9. All three bills will likely be introduced in the Senate this week. Rep. Norman Thurston, a Republican from Provo who is sponsoring the bills, said he believes the measures will actually reduce the number of people who seek exemptions from required vaccinations, while providing more educational information for those who do. Thurston referred to the online component as a “pretty big win for public health and personal freedom.” He said it removes the unnecessary requirement to drive to the health department to complete the exemption form. “We also updated the statement of Deer Valley to refresh and experience the finest European dining in the state.
