### Air Quality
Air quality in the region is a concern, especially during the winter months. As of the latest update, the PM 2.5 levels are at 12.6 µg/m³, which falls into the moderate category. Residents are advised to be mindful of air quality, especially on days when burning solid fuel or outdoor fires are prohibited due to air action days[4].

### Local News
In recent news, the city is still abuzz with the opening of the Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital in February 2024, which has been a significant addition to the healthcare facilities in Lehi. This hospital has been serving children and teens in Utah County and neighboring areas, providing much-needed medical care[1].

### Community Developments
Lehi’s Family Park, which opened in September 2024, continues to be a popular spot. This $20 million all-abilities park features an aviation-themed playground, a 420 sq. ft. splash pad area, and a fully fenced single entrance. The park has been a hit with families, despite some initial controversy over its development[1].

### Upcoming Events
Looking ahead, the community is preparing for significant changes, including the redistricting of the Alpine School District. This process, which was approved by voters in the November election, will split the district into three new school districts. The Utah County Commission is tasked with completing the boundary lines by April 1, 2025[1].

In other news, the announcement of a new Lehi Temple by President Russell M. Nelson of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has generated excitement among local members. The temple, planned for a 22.48-acre site, will include a multi-story structure and a public meetinghouse[1].
