The League of Women Voters hosted a panel on the dangers of the use of e-cigarettes, also known as vaping. The panel was held on Monday, March 11, 2019 at the Weber County Main Library. According to the 2017 Student Health and Risk Prevention Statewide Survey, administered every two years in Utah schools, teen e-cigarette use is higher in the Weber- Morgan Health District than any other area across the state. Teens that use e-cigarettes are four times as likely to go on to smoke tobacco cigarettes within the next 18 months as teens who don't vape. This is according to an article in the Standard Examiner dated March 10, 2019. The article featured a photo of Brock Lierd who works at Blue Moon Vapors located in Marriott- Slaterville. Residents in western Weber County are petitioning a study to incorporate that rural land into what would be the county's 16^^ city. This is due to the fact that little by little, many of the open expanses of western Weber County have given way to development and subdivisions. Farmland has been cleared, new homes have taken shape and it has spurred increased debate and hand-wringing over how to best manage the growth. Many from the unincorporated area - - outside the jurisdiction of West Haven, Hooper and other cities — have clamored as newcomers have streamed in, worried about out-of-control growth and the loss of the country feel. Incorporating would create the framework giving locals more say in how that expansion occurs. - Building a Community, Standard Examiner, March 18, 2019 |
