The Board is responsible for promoting, guiding and over-all enhancement of the library system. The Board meets the 3rd Thursday of January, March, May, July, September and November at 7:00 p.m. Meeting place alternates between Coalville, Kamas, and the Kimball Junction Branch. JAY HAMBURGER The Park Record Park City’s chief 2002 Winter Olympic planner, Frank Bell, left City Hall shortly after the Games that year. The Park City manager at the time of the Olympics, Toby Ross, departed by the end of 2002. And Myles Rademan, the municipal government’s public affairs director and a crucial figure in City Hall’s Games efforts, moved out of a full-time position nearly a decade ago. Sixteen years after upward of half of the events of the Winter Olympics were staged in and around Park City, there remains little institutional knowledge of the Games within the ranks of City Hall. There has been turnover across departments in the intervening years, leaving few management-level figures on staff as Salt Lake City, Park City and the wider Games region appear poised to mount a bid for a second Winter Olympics, as early as in 2030. City Attorney Mark Harrington remains in the same position he held in the Olympic era, a role that had wide-ranging responsibilities as officials negotiated highly important agreements with Games organizers and sponsors. Jonathan Weidenhamer, who is the economic development manager at City Hall, was a municipal planner at the time of the Games. He was assigned to oversee the Main Street celebration during the Olympics, setting a budget, crafting an operations blueprint and working with Games organizers to design the programs for the street. But City Manager Diane Foster at the time of the Games was with American Skiing Company, then the owner of Canyons Resort.

Deadline for applications is 5:00 p.m., Wednesday, March 7, 2018. Myles Rademan, who was City Hall’s public affairs director for years, left, and Frank Bell, the Olympic planning director for the municipal government, shown during the 2002 Winter Olympic era, were two of the crucial staffers as Park City prepared for the Games. There are few management-level figures from that era remaining at City Hall as the region appears poised to mount a bid for another Winter Olympics. cast from the resort during the Games and other Olympic-related events unfolded there. The police chief, Wade Carpenter, was in law enforcement in Southern Utah at the time. Other high-level staffers who would be expected to hold key roles in any future Olympic efforts in 2002 were years away from joining City Hall. “We didn’t have much experience the first time through,” Bell said in an interview as the Olympics in South Korea continued, explaining that he is unsure what sort of impact the sparse institutional knowledge would have on the planning for a second Olympics. “We spent a lot of time learning.” Bell was the chief of police of Park City when the Olympics were awarded to Salt Lake City in 1995. He became the director of the Games planning at City Hall two years later and left the municipal government in mid2002, shortly after the Olympics closed and his position was cut from the budget. He went on to become the town manager in Colorado mountain resorts of Crested Butte and Telluride before becoming the general manager of a The Sea Ranch, a private community north of the Bay Area, where he remains. Bell said City Hall retains lots of information about the municipal role during the Olympics even if there are few staffers remaining. He noted the contracts negotiated between City Hall and the Salt Lake Organizing Committee that outlined the roles and responsibilities of each side provide a detailed accounting of what is a critical aspect of Games planning. The municipal contracts with Olympic sponsors are available to officials as a guide, he said. A post-Olympic report primarily drafted by Bell is also available. The report provides a detailed rundown of City Hall’s planning and operations. “I think there is a foundation to do it again,” Bell said. He also noted figures who had a pivotal role with the organizing committee remain involved. Bell pointed to Fraser Bullock, who was the No. 2 staffer at the Salt Lake Organizing Committee behind Games chief Mitt Romney, and Colin Hilton, a high-ranking staffer at the organizing committee who went on to work at the Marsac Building. Bullock and Hilton are working with the committee considering a bid for the Games in 2030. “I’m not sure it’s a bad thing to Historic Preservation Board (HPB)Vacancies There are four (4) positions available on the Historic Preservation Board.
