The Live wElle Foundation will be hosting the 2nd annual “Live wElle 5K and Kids’ Fun Run” on Saturday, May 24, 2008. The event will start at 7:30 a.m., and as with last year, will be held at the Hunter Valley Park in Springville (1250 South 200 East). All proceeds from this event will benefit the Nebo Education Foundation and will continue to provide scholarships for local high school students.

The Live wElle Foundation was established in memory of Elle Hullinger, daughter of Scott and Kirsten Hullinger of Springville. Elle’s sudden death on August 30, 2006, brought an outpouring of love and support that can never be repaid! On a daily basis, we are reminded how much we miss Elle, yet Elle’s short life continues to bless her family and her community. Her foundation will always provide renewed healing as young people are assisted in reaching their potential and in their quest to “Live wElle".

The Live wElle Foundation board members invite all to come and participate in this wonderful event! More information, including directions on how to register, can be found at www.livewElle.org. And remember, “live life.live it wElle".

The Springville City Streets Department strives to remove snow on all city streets within 10 hours after a snow storm.

According to City Code 8-4-105 (2) It shall be unlawful for any person to remove any snow or ice from any private property and place the same on any public street, sidewalk, driveway, or right-of-way, or any part thereof.

We understand and appreciate your efforts in removing the snow from your driveway and sidewalks, but pushing the snow (with a blade) into the street can create traffic hazards and other problems for the mail carriers, garbage trucks, and snow plows.

We ask for your cooperation in this matter so we can safely and effectively plow the streets in a timely manner.

If you have any questions, please call the Public Works office at 491-2780.
