INFO re: J. Stephen Flitton, Former President and Executive Director, UtahTrust.gov
In my research on all things connected to the Cove View Golf Course, the city of Richfield and those involved in decision-making, remediation and communication regarding my numerous complaints over the eight years I’ve lived along the 11th fairway at the course, I’ve found some interesting information.
Not the least of which is regarding the UtahTrust.gov organization’s former President and Executive Director, J. Stephen Fitton.
For example, I’ve found on the utah.gov website — the state’s official website — that apparently Flitton was terminated by UtahTrust. There’s a note in a spreadsheet I’ve downloaded (see section above, at top of post) that reads:
- “Requesting access to tape recordings or minutes of the Board’s “executive session” regarding J. Stephen Flitton conducted on May 17, 1999. (item #4 in appeal #2019-145)”
- Another entry reads, “Requesting fee waivers and access to employment termination records of Flitton, Hanks, and Farrell. (items #1, #2, #3 in appeal #2019-145)”
These were notations in an Excel spreadsheet related to an apparent court case, Brady Eames v. Utah Local Governments Trust (ULGT). Each of those listed items above were marked “Approved” on Jan. 6, 2020 (the first note) and Jan. 20, 2020 (the second note).
I find this highly curious. Under what conditions was past President and Executive Director Flitton terminated? That’s not a good mark to have on your record.
I’m seeing and smelling a little smoke here. I’m going to keep working to see if there’s an actual fire somewhere.
