• 501 Taylor Young Variance Request
    We are Ronak and Meredith Sheth, and we recently purchased 501 Taylor Young. We're planning to build a new home on the site to live with our 15 month old daughter, Olivia. We currently live in Tower Grove South and are really excited to be part of the neighborhood. We had a chance to meet many of you at the annual meeting a couple weeks ago, which made us even more excited about joining the community. We're looking forward to meeting the rest of you soon. One of the challenges with our lot is the buildable area based on the current setbacks as calculated by Kirkwood. Being a corner lot, both Taylor Young and Rayner are considered front yards with really large setbacks (77ft and 65 ft). Our architect is requesting a variance to change the setbacks to 45ft. See attached diagram that shows the setback we are requesting in red and our proposed build within that area. The blue line is the current setback - you will notice it's tiny! For reference, the current buildable area would allow for a 1,400sf ranch, and with our request approved, we plan to build a 2,700sf ranch. We have created this online petition asking for support from our neighbors for this variance request. We have already submitted a letter from the trustees of the neighborhood association showing support but believe having more neighborhood support will be helpful. Please put your address in the comments section so it will show up on the petition. We are confirmed on the Kirkwood Board of Adjustments agenda for Monday, April 8th at 7pm. Several of you have already offered to be present - thanks a lot! Anyone else who is willing to help is welcome.

  • Lehi City Re-Zoning of 2860 North on 1200 West
    We do not feel that a COMMERCIAL business belongs within our residential neighborhood, nor do we want to see another business office blocking the view of the mountains. Keep new business within the area already being developed. Our area is growing at a fast pace and we do not need to add this sprawl into every open space between our homes. We love this area and the beautiful view is one of the many reasons we want to keep the neighborhood residential.

  • Shoes on Feet not in Landfills
    As a community member and a member of the online selling community, I and countless others have raised this issue to local Goodwill stores where we have been met without interest or response. Now I am asking for public support, when such a small act can make such a profound difference for generations to come.

  • Free my daughter's mother
    My wife and daughter are beautiful people. I married my wife 9 years ago. I'm American and made the decision to send my daughter and wife back to Mexico City to legally work on their papers since her daughter's father died of a drug overdose and alcoholism in Mexico City. He was very abusive emotionally and physically to my wife when she was 18 years old. They were safe to return since his death. Please help my family reunite, My daughter is a 4.0 - 10 grader taking college credits and is what her math teacher emailed me a mathematical genius. I'm American and see families approved at the border for asylum for their lives being in danger. My wife is married to an American and is not allowed??? I have not been with my wife for 6 years.

  • Equal Time Rule-protects all 2020 Presidential Candidates
    The petition is about the enforcement and brings public attention to the Equal Time Rule (#EqualTime2020), "Reasonable Access" Rule that protects all legally qualified presidential candidates. The Museum of Broadcast History calls the "equal time" rule "the closest thing in broadcast content regulation to the 'golden rule.'" This provision of the 1934 Communications Act (section 315) "requires radio and television stations and cable systems which originate their programming to treat legally qualified political candidates equally when it comes to selling or giving away air time." I am writing this petition because I am a citizen of the United States of America. I am a legally registered qualified 2020 presidential candidate, since April 2017. A "Legally qualified" means, in part, that a person is a declared candidate. The timing of the announcement that someone is running for office is important because it triggers the equal time rule." With your help we will be fighting for equality all political presidential candidates are impacted. I have been denied right to the Equal Time Rule by CNN and MSNBC. They have refused to give my presidential campaign zero free airtime and zero paid airtime. These practices are unethical and illegal. It is an insult to our democratic process. My application for the presidency was filed on 23 April 2017. CNN and MSNBC have deemed me "unworthy" of equal airtime to tell America about my candidacy. America the pay for play media time is an attack on our democratic presidential process. The media has no right selecting the 2020 presidential candidates they want to promote for ratings and money. America wake up and look at the media-driven 2020 presidential candidates lineup. Take a long look. What do you see? The pay to play for equality for all candidates. 1. Where are the corporate media's "unworthy and invaluable for ratings and money" 2020 presidential candidates? Not in the lineup with the pay to play list. 2. When did an individual's social class, race, wealth, gender, and name recognition play a role in the Equal Time Rule? 3. The harsh ramification of this practice is an attack on our political process and corruption. 4. The Equal Time Rule and all other laws were put in place to protect all the legal qualified registered presidential candidates. 5. This practice kills a candidate presidential grassroots campaign. 6. It has KILLED my ability to get my grassroots presidential campaign off the ground. 7. This is going to stop because Americans select the president not the media Equal Time Rule pay for play scam that is designed to kill off the rest of the candidates. One America thank you for your support!

  • Release the Mueller report
    Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team has completed its investigation. But Attorney General William Barr isn't letting the public see it. Barr has shared out his brief summary -- but we deserve the Mueller report, not the Barr summary. We demand that Barr release the report to the public. If he does not, we must demand that Congress do everything in its power to obtain Mueller's report and make it public. Mueller's full report could tell us what his team has uncovered in nearly two years of its criminal investigation about Russia's efforts to meddle in the 2016 election -- including concerns about conspiracy and obstruction of justice. Barr is a hand-picked partisan AG who had a track record of criticizing Mueller's team and an expansive view of executive power -- and we cannot take his summary as the complete story. The American people deserve and demand the full report.
