Important people in this department: Gary Baugher (Mayor), Michael Jenkins (treasurer), Sandra Moraine (Secretary of transportation). HAD (Hewitt Agricultural Departmet): This department is responsible for the management of Hewitt's farms, crop prices, and crop transportation. With the the help of the HAD, many farmers who originally never had enough money to own a farm, soon do, with public grants of money that go towards the aid of the farmers who do not have enough money to start thier own farm up. Important people in this department: Charles Franks (Head of the department of agriculture), Cythia Perez (Minister of the allocation of farm aid). HPD (Hewitt Police Department): Responsible for the overall wellfare of all the citizens in Hewitt. Whether is keeping crime off the streets, or helping someone who locked thier keys in thier car, the HPD is here for you! Important people in this department: Richard Blackstock (Chief of police). HFD (Hewitt Fire Department): Although not goverment funded, the HFD is an unofficial branch of the Hewitt government. The HFD draws nearly all of it's money from charity, and 75% of the fire force in Hewitt is currently voluntary. When fire breaks out, the HFD is there to stop it! Did fluffy thw wonder cat get stuck in a tree again? No worries the brave men and women of the HFD are at the scene with a ladder, and a net to catch her when she jumps!

Important people in this department: Cathy Hedstrum (Head of education improvment, and educational facilities.) Alright enough of that, on with the update! Construction continued on the planned highway and El train, late in the month of September, they were completely finished, a forshadow to many of what Hewitt City will become. Meanwhile the outcry for running water in the city grew, and the mayor feels it is time to water these sims, like plants, cities grown when watered well. The sims demand water! The mayor has laid down plans for a water tower to be built in Hewitt City, he officially announces the formation of the HPWD, already aforementioned. The El train line has been finished, seen here is half of the line in Hewitt, the line will be added to when Hewitt Expands Eastward. The rest of the El line. As seen in the previous picture, the Fairline Interstate (aka the HC-101) has been finished in Hewitt. This is the Fairlane Interstate, continuing Northbound, this area seen in the uninhabited North Hewitt City. The Fairlane finds it's way to Huntington, allowing all the surplus crops from Huntington to reach Hewitt City, conversly, Hewitt City citizen's yerning for a country life now can move out into Huntington, without backpacking through 50 miles of nature. An area is set aside for the water tower, construction will start when crews clear the area. The water tower has been build, flower gardens were added around the area, and we all know water + flowers = growth. Maybe a foreshadow of the things to come in Hewitt City. Shortly after the water tower was built, a mansion was erected, the owner has yet to be named. But no doubt on anyones mind's in Hewitt City, he will be the richest in the city. Demand is high for houses with running water, so new residential blocks were built to accomidate the demand for housing with water. Finally some region shots. Hewitt, the region seen in the picture is the planned suburb of Hewitt City, Sheffiled. And finally the transportation map. Those 4 who left comments will all be added to my CJ, if you would like to be a character and have a story line in my CJ, please tell me. Stay tuned, as Hewitt City plans massive additions to thier Residential, Commercial, and Industrial districts. Also, construction on the downtown area will begin! Also, who is the mystery sim moving into the mansion! Find out these answers, and more in the next edition of Hewitt: The City Journal! Thanks for reading! Untill next time, I bid you adieu. Enjoy. Questions/comments/concerns? Post 'em!
  6. Hewitt, might aswell try this again.

    Sorry about the size, but it's the best size I could pick that would still allow detail in the city. Another reason it takes so long to load is that I already have 5 updates on one page. Once more comments start comming, updates will be spread out more. =P Anyways I'm using a huge region to work with, so I'll just give you this teaser picture, I'll offer more pictures of the region later. Keep in mind I'm still making the mountains to the north. =P Anyways, I'm hopping to add a HUGE update tonight, so stay tuned. =)

  10. Hewitt, might aswell try this again.

    In response to your comments... lookinin: Thanks for the positive feedback, it gives me the will to continue. jacqulina: I added you to my latest update, I hope you like it! Update 05: A growing transportation grid. The mayor feels it is time to start construction on the planned transportation additions, to accommodate for the transportation needs of future sims. But first we will take a look at the past developing zones. The new residential blocks have finally been completed, in fact upper class sims are now moving into the area, construction on thier houses' are seen in the picture. The construction for the highway that will eventually connect Hewitt City to Huntington has begun. A clearing in the forest has been cut for the future highway. While the highway towards the South has already been completed, leading towards the future downtown district. The HTA has dubbed this strech of highway HC-201. The Rymac Commercial Plaza has experianced little to no major development, so the Mayor ordeded the construction of an on-ramp near the Plaza, allowing sims access to the Plaza without the stop and go traffic. Hopefully it will spur development in the area. Another on-ramp has been placed, allowing the flow of more commuters from the commercial district to the residential district. The El Train construction has begun, crews have already built El-to-Sub transfers to allow trains to pass under the highway. These transfers are highlighted in blue. All is well in Huntington, slow like always, new farms have been added, after recent news of the plans to connect Huntington to Hewitt City, increasing the farms output means increasing it's income. The new farms have been built already, highlighted in the above picture. Another piece of news from Huntington, a small volunteer firehouse has been built to heed the sims' demands for fire protection, being surrounded by a forest, after all. That will do it for this update, stay tunned, the next update we will see the completion of the Fairlane Interstate, connecting sims from Hewitt City to Huntington. Also, Hewitt City's El train plans will have something added to it, and the original planned construction will be finished! Thanks for reading! Untill next time, I bid you adieu. Enjoy.

  13. Hewitt, might aswell try this again.

    Thats alright, lookinin. It's good to see this journal is popular. Anyways on with the update! Update 04: Introducing... The roads for the future residential addition have been laid, and the mayor now feels it is time to start zoning. Parks will also be added to the area, to increase overall attractiveness of the area. The zones have been laid, and the parks have been constructed, the only thing missing from this equation are sims! Faster than you can say Antidisestablishmentarinism sims flock to the newly built area. Although not fully developed, the mayor expects the development of the area to finish within the next 4 months. The total amount of sims that the new addition brought in was around 500. Although development is slow in the new Rymac Commercial Plaza, it is developing! The mayor is looking towards the future, the HCTD has released plans for a future EL Train system. The HTA (Hewitt Transportation Association) has been offically set up for all of Hewitt's mass transportation needs. This will cover Highways, EL trains, railways, buses, subways, and tollbooths. An overall shot of Hewitt City. The cities population sits at 3,664. A small town has been set up 50 miles due northeast of Hewitt City. With a population of 107 it is mainly a farming community. Here's a picture of the city limits of Huntington. And a closer look... A shot of the residential and small...VERY small commercial sector. This is where most of the adult sims goto spend their hard earned cash on the weekend, the FullStrenght Bar and Nightclub. This is the hotspot of Huntington. The farms of Huntington, which provides 80% of Huntington's jobs. That's it for this update! Stay tuned for the next update! Next 3 people to post in this thread will be added somehow, someway to the city. Once again, those who weren't included in this update will be included in a future one. If you would like to become a citizen and have a storyline of your own in Hewitt City, please tell me! Enjoy. Questions/comments/concerns? Post 'em!
