August 10th, 2011

Dear Victor City Council, Staff, and Citizens,

Over the last 4 years I have had the privilege of serving as an elected official for the City of Victor. However, I find it necessary at this time to announce my intention to resign as Mayor effective September 30th, 2011.

I am extremely proud of the accomplishments achieved by Council and Staff during my time in office. Substantial updating of City Code, Envision Victor, major infrastructure projects in both the Water and Sewer departments, Main St realignment, Victor Transit Center construction, Depot acquisition, park master planning, and Music on Main are just some of the highlights of the success directly reflected in your hard work.

Although I had every intention of fulfilling my 4 year term as Mayor when running for office, personal responsibilities with my business and family no longer allow me to dedicate the time and energy the position deserves. Victor, and Teton Valley, is at an important cross roads. Will we as a community finally break free of the boom / bust cycle that has been plaguing the Valley since the dawn of the railroad, or will we rise above and forge a new path of sustainable growth and prosperity? The answer lies with our leadership and I no longer feel I have the time available for the job.

Thank you for all your support during my time as Mayor, it has been an honor to work with you all! I look forward to helping the City in other ways in the near future.

Sincerely,


Scott Fitzgerald
Mayor
City of Victor

OPEN HOUSE ANNOUNCEMENTS


Please read the following and mark your calendars to come to City Hall on the dates listed and take this opportunity to voice your opinions - because they do matter!

There will be an open house presentation of the Pioneer Park master plan at City Hall, on Thursday, the 21st of July, from 4pm to 7pm. The approximately 50 acre park site will be a significant part of the future development strategy of the City of Victor. Staff will present the park master plan design which was developed with citizen-user input over a two years period. Ideas and requests for park space were incorporated into the conceptual plan being presented by a local volunteer design team and city staff. We encourage all interested persons to stop by City Hall to view the plan and give staff their input on the design.

In addition, there will be an additional open house to be held on Tuesday, the 26th of July, from 4pm to 7pm at Victor City Hall. The Main St. design recommendations prepared by the Victor Planning & Zoning Commission, in response to citizen and staff recommendations, will be presented for citizen review and comment. This is an exceedingly important decision and will establish much of the design and functionality qualities for downtown for decades to come. Please make it a point to drop by and give us your views on this multi-year process Main Street design.

We hope to see you at both of these important events for your input as we look to the future.

JOIN US FOR MAIN STREET DESIGN MEETINGS

The City of Victor is excited to announce the continuation of its Main Street design work in a series of two public meetings scheduled for June 16th, 2011. The meetings will be offered at Noon and 7:00pm in the Victor Crossroads building at Center and Main. Signs on site will direct participants to the proper building entrance.

Continuing the work of Envision Victor, these Main Street meetings will be run by our Planning and Zoning Commission. In these meetings,we'll use 3D visualization technology to present the feedback we received from our engineers, planners, and the Idaho State Transportation Department about the designs that you helped us create through Envision Victor's Main Street meetings. We'll also use key-pad polling technology to collect more input from YOU about how we should move forward.

We're very excited, because these meetings will begin where Envision Victor left off, and we're going to be incorporating the results of our previous Main Street design meetings and the feedback we got from our engineers and planners to get closer to a final design that supports our community's values - Family Friendly, Small Town Feel, Connection to Nature, Cultural History, and Sustainability.

All are welcome. Refreshments will be provided.

NOTE: For those unable to attend one of these meetings, we'll be creating an online poll where you can share you input remotely. This online poll will be available on our City blog. It will open on June 16th and collect feedback through June 20th.
Please contact Mike O'Neill or Bill Knight (208-787- 2940) for more information, and we look forward to seeing you there!

With the successful conclusion of our work on Main Street, Envision Victor is excited to announce its next round of public conversations! We hope you’ll be able to join us at one of the following meetings:

Tuesday, Jan 25, 7pm at the Victor Elementary School
Wednesday, Jan 26, noon at Pierre’s Playhouse
Wednesday, Jan 26, 7pm at the LDS Church


Come discuss how Victor’s growth will impact our five core values – family friendliness, small town feel, connection to nature, cultural history, and sustainability. Using visualization software and interactive keypads to capture your responses, we will ask your help evaluating some different possible futures for Victor. We’ll use these models to come up with a set of principles we believe Victor should apply as it grows.

The work we’ve done on Main Street has demonstrated that the public’s voice really does matter in City decisions, and I hope you will come out again to help the City think about how Victor should direct its future growth. Specifically, we’d like your help thinking about how our planning decisions will affect the things we value most in our community.

The growth principles we produce through these meetings will help inform the City’s Capital Improvements Plan, a document that the City will use to estimate the costs and revenue it can expect over the next 15-20 years. Future costs and revenue will be heavily impacted by the type and location of growth we experience. The principles created through Envision Victor’s meetings will guide the creation of a fiscal analysis tool that will evaluate the cost and revenue impacts of different growth scenarios.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Because the tools we will use in these meetings are so sophisticated, I’m afraid we will not be able to provide an online version of these meetings. We realize that it’s not always easy to attend a public meeting, but we really hope that everyone who wants to attend is able to make it to one of the three meetings we are hosting.

We’ll bring the food, if you bring your good ideas!
Again, meetings will be held:

Tuesday, Jan 25, 7pm at the Victor Elementary School
Wednesday, Jan 26, noon at Pierre’s Playhouse
Wednesday, Jan 26, 7pm at the LDS Church


All meetings are public; refreshments will be provided. Email me (or call (208) 201-3931) with any comments or questions. Thanks so much for all you do, and I hope to see you in a few weeks!

Best,
Dahvi Wilson

"We Hear You America" Sweepstakes – Reader’s Digest

Fans of Victor – Here’s another opportunity to “cheer” (cast your vote) for the City of Victor and perhaps win a family roadtrip in a brand new vehicle or be one of 10 cash winners of $500!

Reader’s Digest is awarding more than $5 Million in funds and promotional support to 100 towns and cities across the U.S. to promote things like tourism, civic works, job growth, and economic development. This grass roots campaign is named “We Hear You America.”

You can enter this Sweepstakes via the Internet. Please go to http://www.rd.com/wehearyouamerica and follow the online entry instructions. When you enter and vote for Victor you will also be entering yourself to win one of the personal prizes and the chance for Victor to win one of the municipal prizes. You will be instructed to enter your name, address, and email address and “cheer” (vote) for Victor, which you’ll have to type in. There is a limit of 10 entries per person per day so the more often you vote, the better chance Victor will have to win in its population category and you'll get additional opportunities for your chance to win the new vehicle or the cash prize.

It’s a win-win for both of us, but we have to really start getting those votes in as the last day to enter is February 7, 2011 at 11:59 p.m. (EST).

Good luck to all of us! We appreciate any vote for Victor!
