BACK when Layton City only had a town board, in the 1940s and the 1950s, the meetings of the City were on Monday evenings, at 7:30.
According to the Weekly Reflex newspaper of Kaysville-Bountiful on Jan. 15, 1948, the town board's regular meetings were every Monday night.
However, this was back before Monday night was commonly set aside as "Family Night," a feature that was supported by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and which came along universally in 1965. (The Church had began the Monday Night Family Home Evening back in 1915, but it didn't get widespread support until the mid-1960s.)
This Monday evening for City meetings also predated the new U.S. tradition of having a lot of holidays on Mondays (like President's Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, etc.)
