Mia Love can't control the weather. We sort of know that. (Thanks, again, for making your residents feel like you think we are idiots). It is your responsibility as Mayor to take the time to make a plan and execute it. After the #dumpfire, why wasn't there immediate action taken? If there were any plans made to prevent flooding, what were they? Why didn't they work to prevent this destruction? I know the majority of the victims of the flooding. They are hard-working, responsible people. They are not sitting around waiting for someone to save them. They are in the trenches, cleaning, building, and making repairs right along with the many volunteers, sponsors, and friends. Unfortunately, some are trying to portray these homeowners as something they are not. Our whole community is behind them, and will defend them before we defend a failed attempt by our city to cover up there own incompetence. As a resident of Saratoga Springs, I am disappointed in the delayed reaction of our city after the #dumpfire. As many other residents believed, I had assumed there was work uphill of our homes to prevent mudslides immediately following the fire. Many of us talked about it and knew that this winter and spring would bring a lot of water, and that scared us. Was anything done before the floods? Would that not be the most important item on the city's agenda? We have not heard of anything that was done before this mudslide happened. Just in case someone is paying attention, for future reference: if a fire happens on a mountain above your city = do something quickly to prevent further disaster. As the news clip portrayed, Herriman City worked quickly to shore up the hill above their residents. Why didn't our city? Please do what we pay you to do, or we may take a good look at hiring new city management. Oh wait, you said we don't have any funds. Hmmm. I wonder why...?
