Feb | Mar 18 | UTAH CONSTRUCTION & DESIGN | 7 < Publisher’s Message Small Town Demeanor, Big City Impact UC&D Few people in Utah’s construction industry wield the power and influence ofWilford Clyde, yet you wouldn’t necessarily think Utah Construction & Design Magazine that initially upon meeting him, considering his friendly, low-key 3047 W Parkway Blvd. STE A, demeanor and approachability. Clyde is just as apt to talk to you Salt Lake City UT 84119 about BYU football or Utah Jazz basketball as he is any number of O: (801) 747-9202 complex subjects he’s been keenly involved with in just the past M: (801) 433-7541 couple of years. www.utahcdmag.com By day, Clyde is Chairman/CEO of Orem-based Clyde Companies – a group that oversees seven major subsidiary organizations that have combined revenues pushing the hallowed $1 Bradley H. Fullmer billion mark (Clyde said it hit $950 million in 2017) and has 3,000 employees at 50 locations in five Publisher/Managing Editor western states. In his ‘free time’ Clyde is the 2017-18 Chair of the Salt Lake Chamber, and is on the 16-member Utah State Board of Regents, the governing body for the Utah System of Higher [email protected] Education (he just re-upped for a second six-year term). At the end of last year Clyde also wrapped up two four-year terms as Mayor of Springville – a Ladd J. Marshall city of 33,000-plus residents just south of Provo where he has resided his entire life. He is fiercely Advertising Sales Director proud of his community and quick to point out that the Clyde’s were among the first Mormon [email protected] pioneers who settled in Springville in the 1850s. Grandfather W.W. Clyde founded the prominent heavy/civil construction company that bears his name in 1926 and many Clyde family members Jay Hartwell still call it home. W.W. Clyde’s brother, George Dewey Clyde, was Governor of Utah from 1957-65, Art Director but Clyde said that had little impact on his reasons for getting involved in various community [email protected] and work-related organizations. “I don’t consider myself a politician,” he says. “My family came to Springville in the 1850s, I’ve lived their all my life and we have a vested interest in seeing it be a good community. It was a lot of fun being involved (as Mayor).” As a side note, my mother Suzanne also hails from Springville (my family on the Harrison side was among the Mormon pioneers who settled in the area in the 1850s) and I consider it something of a ‘second hometown’ as it brings back tons of fond childhood memories). In our cover story (page 28), we look at Clyde’s career in the construction industry – he was recently awarded with the Eric C. Ryberg Award (kind of like the Oscar for lifetime achievement in the construction industry) from the Associated General Contractors of Utah – and his positive impact on the state in general. Speaking of the AGC, the national chapter is celebrating 100 years in 2018, while the local chapter held its 96th Annual Convention in January, hosting more than 2,300 people during the popular three-day event (pg. 46). In this issue of UC&D, our first of eight annually, we also summarize the opinions and thoughts of several local economists and key construction executives regarding the overall ‘Economic Outlook’ for the Beehive State in 2018 (pg. 36). I attended no less than a half dozen events where the economic forecast for Utah was the key topic, and by most accounts 2018 should be another banner year across the board for A/E/C firms. At least that’s the prevailing opinion and hope. That said, anytime a state experiences a consecutive monthly growth cycle over 8.5 years like Utah is currently in, it’s expected that a downturn naturally will happen, even Utah Construction & Design is published eight (8) times a year.

  • Utah Governor's Correspondence Research Guide
    Utah Governor's Correspondence Research Guide This research guide was created to facilitate student research during the 2020-2021 academic year National History Day celebration. In 2020-2021 students were asked to explore topics relating to the theme Communication in History: The Key to Understanding. This theme asks students to consider how people exchange information and interact with each other. Students have the chance to explore how the methods and modes of communication have changed over time and how they have shaped the present. There are few records held by the Utah Division of Archives and Records Service (State Archives) that illustrate the power and importance of communication like the correspondence sent and received by Utah’s governors. As the chief executive of the State, the governor directly engages with issues of both local and national importance. They serve as the representative for the state on a wide range of issues. The governor’s office has routinely proven to be a place where citizens engage with their government. This ongoing information exchange is foundational to the historic record as it provides unique, often personal, insights into key historical moments and circumstances. As the permanent repository for Utah’s government records, the State Archives holds the correspondence generated by Utah’s governors in public trust. These records are available for research and access through its Research Center. This research guide intends to bring together the correspondence from the various administrations of Utah’s governors into a central location that will help with research. Descriptions of each correspondence record set are provided.

  • HISTORY of Wasatch County
    A HISTORY OF = 'Wasatch County Jessie L. Embry UTAH CENTENNIAL COUNTY HISTORY SERIES A HISTORY OF Wasatch County Jessie L. Embry Native Americans used Wasatch County for hunting and gathering activities, but prob­ ably no permanent settlers lived in the area until the Mormons arrived in 1859. They established communities following Joseph Smith's Plat of the City of Zion. Rather than living on isolated homesteads, they lived in towns and set up their farms surrounding the villages. The harsh weather and distant water sources of the region also encouraged coop­ eration. The area became known for its dair­ ies and cattle and sheep industries. But while the towns in Wasatch County started as typical Mormon villages, they have become more dependent on outside eco­ nomic forces. The state and federal govern­ ments have developed many of the county's natural resources, but they generally are used outside the area. The county includes much of the Uinta and parts of the Wasatch and Ashley national forests and boasts three res­ ervoirs: Strawberry (1910), Deer Creek (1946), and Jordanelle (1995); however, the stored water is used elsewhere. Wasatch County's history is the story of a transition from independent Mormon villages to de­ pendent colonies and bedroom communi­ ties of larger population centers.

    The “Restoration” of the Gospel and Church of Jesus Christ 1 The Reformation from the Catholic Church was begun by Martin Luther Wikipedia By Anton von Werner Martin Luther’s reply to the Diet of Worms) “Since your majesty and your lordships desire a simple reply, I will answer without horns or teeth. Unless I am convinced by Scripture and by plain reason (I do not believe in the authority of either popes or councils by themselves, for it is plain that they have often erred and contradicted each other) in those Scriptures that I have presented, for my conscience is captive to the Word of God, I cannot and I will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe.

    ELECTIONS IN THE STATE OF UTAH 1952 Election With Dwight D. Eisenhower leading the Republican party ticket, for the first time since Herbert Hoover and the 1928 election a majority of Utahns voted for the Republican candidate. The retired World War II Supreme Commander received 194,190 voted to 135,364 for Adlai M. Stevenson. With over 58 percent of the vote, Eisenhower represented a radical shift for Utah, which had given strong support to Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry S. Truman during the previous quarter of a century. However, a shift away from the Democratic party had been evident in 1950 when Republican Wallace Bennett won a victory over the veteran New Dealer Elbert D. Thomas in the Senate contest of that year. In the 1952 Senate race, incumbent Republican Arthur V. Watkins, who in 1946 had beaten the incumbent Democrat Abe Murdock by 101,000 votes to 96,000, defeated Democratic challenger Walter K. Granger by a count of 177,435 votes to 149,598. In the First Congressional District, Douglas Stringfellow, running on his record as a wounded World War II hero, easily defeated Ernest McKay, 76,545 to 49,898. However, before his term was over, Stringfellow confessed to having fabricated much of his war record and resigned just before the 1954 election. In the Second Congressional District, Utah′s first congresswomen, Reva Beck Bosone, was defeated by William A. Dawson, who she had unseated in 1948. Bosone had won by a large vote of 93,770 to 68,693 in 1948; she was defeated by Dawson in 1952 by a vote of 105,296 to 95,084.
