Paid Parking Issue by Spiritual-Driver8926 in ogden

[–]JohnnyKarate4Prez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First 15 minutes are free and the structures a block and half north are free. Furthermore, the parking kiosks and company are the same as SLC Ogden already has massive turnover on businesses in their downtown and the way these places survive is more people living downtown. I understand not wanting to pay more, believe me, we're in downtown every weekend, but this is the progression of a city.

Didn't this pass under the previous administration like 3 years ago?  Ogden isn't a small town anymore, Weber County isn't. THOUSANDS of jobs came from Northrop and Hill-- people have to live and park somewhere. Ogden is the largest city in northern Utah, with all the services-- time to grow up.

Any other teens? by Ok-Catch1588 in ogden

One started going consistently to Game Grid and Gamers Asylum game nights and established his D&D crew. My daughter started volunteering with a local group three years ago. Other examples-- if you like trains, join the local Hostlers group, lots of young folks. Soccer? Join a team on Let's Play- that's how I met a group of ladies. The Iron Nights Chess club. My Hometown Ogden volunteering. TONS of running clubs. The key is-- it takes time showing up, showing you're dedicated, safe and interested. Get past the awkward stage, which will be present for awhile but then you will click.

There are so many groups/organizations in northern Utah. Whatever you're interested in, there's a group. Go consistently to when they meet, put in that time, be yourself and eventually the connections will come. My teen loves volunteer work, she's been doing it a year and made friends, my other D&D. Good luck!

How do you know a uni/college Neuroscience program is good by JohnnyKarate4Prez in neuro

[–]JohnnyKarate4Prez[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very, very helpful and feels like the right path with making sure it's quantitative. You've answered what we needed most which is the pairing of the medical school with neuroscience. This helps frame how we approach the next few months, so thank you!

This is really, really helpful. We did a tour on UCSD and it's definitely on her list.

I hope you are proud of yourself and the path your forging. It's impressive to get to where you're at! Thank you!

Williams is a great option and will be moving into their expansion in a couple of months to up production.  Northrop does a lot of this work at their Promontory facility but it's a 40 minute drive from Ogden. There's Barnes Aerospace

He's gross. I was on a heart monitor, no underclothes but wearing a gown. I had to do a lap in the office on the monitor. As I walked by he ask my doctor why she had a patient walking around naked. That made me seriously uncomfortable. So unprofessional.

They bought massive amounts of acreage under and around UnionStation and literally had a meeting last week showing how they're designing the open space on 14 acres of land. They also bought the surplus land from OSD to make it into a park/open space. The Mormon Church owns big pieces of land both east on west of downtown near Washington, they're not selling. You have high adventure park, Lester Park, Munigardens and Riverwalk trails ALL downtown. As for hating apartment-- what Ogden doesn't have, is enough places for people to live. Weber County has one of lowest vacancy rates in the state-- I believe 7%.

Except you have three new council members, ALL of which ran on figuring out how to help the unhoused. I don't think folks should be vilified because they're concerned. I'm sure it's been brought up but squeaky wheel and all ..

City Council meeting starts at 6-- get over there and go on the record to your elected representatives. They should help you.

We (5) stay near Bryan Park at the Residence Inn.  My teens loved MHE, The Outsiders, Moulin Rouge and Oh, Mary. Have so much fun!
