Park City Signs displays sustainability MARY CLOSSER Recycle Utah Park City Signs started in 1982 and was recently acquired by new owners Liz and Eric Myers. They are committed to their business and the environment! Their quality signs can be seen all over town as window graphics, construction signs, car wraps and more and in every imaginable medium from vinyl and wood to metal. Park City Signs’ staff is committed to reducing, reusing and recycling wherever possible. Like many businesses in Park City, they concentrate on their own footprint. They recycle whatever possible at their office and staff transports the harder-to-recycle materials to Recycle Utah. They encourage staff to use mugs, bottles, plates, and silverware to avoid plastic. Their offices have been transitioned to LED, toilets are low-flow and their thermostat is monitored carefully. Beyond the basics, they use post-con- CHELSEA BANKS PARK CITY HISTORICAL SOCIETY AND MUSEUM, BOB SAWYER COLLECTION The Silver King Coalition Mines Company kept a pet coyote, pictured, in the 1930s.

In 1942, Fort Douglas acquired its own coyote, Satan, inducted as official mascot for the military police after being captured in a Salt Lake City driveway. Unfortunately for Fort Douglas, though fortunately for the coyote, Satan soon escaped back into the mountains after chewing through his rope.

Park City Signs is always a step ahead when it comes to greening their signs. They use an eco-friendly latex printer instead of a solvent printer. They offer high-end biodegradable materials to their customers when it makes sense. They have conferred with manufacturers at sign industry conferences about creating more sustainable products. They even sew bags from used banners so they can have a second life! Park City Signs’ zest for true sustainability is contagious and we are thrilled to have their conscientious thinking part of the Green Business program.

Official condemns rebel flag display Associated Press MIDVALE — A Midvale City Council member has voiced concerns about the Confederate flag being displayed during the Salt Lake City suburb’s Harvest Days parade. The Salt Lake Tribune reports that Councilman Dustin Gettel raised the issue during the council’s meeting Tuesday after the flag was displayed during the Aug. 11 parade by members of a group called Sons of Confederate Veterans. Gettel said he considers the flag a “symbol of hate” and that he received comments pro and con about flag after he posted a comment about it on two Facebook pages. Mayor Robert Hale says the city plans to meet with the group on a possible course of action. American Fork city officials in 2016 condemned a display of the Confederate flag in an unsanctioned local parade float. ET PUTTING OUR LENDING EXPERIENCE TO WORK FOR YOU!
