South Jordan has joined in the fray to divide Jordan District. If it goes as I believe it will, this November, the east side of Jordan will form one new district, West Jordan City will form a second. Then in the spring primary next year, South Jordan City will break off. That will leave Herriman, Bluffdale and Riverton.
Granite, meanwhile remains stuck. Millcreek is too large for the cities to override the county and get it on the ballot. So we wait. Granite has decided to hold some public hearings without agenda at the local high schools to allow patrons to voice their opinions. Interestingly, there won't be a hearing at Hunter High School. GSD is still playing this as a public relations issue; they haven't figured out that it isn't about school closures, its about academic failure.
