Show Centerville constructs complex By TOM HARALDSEN CENTERVILLECity coun-cilmen coun-cilmen were busy recently, conducting conduc-ting two groundbreaking s for new facilities prior to conducting regular council business. Ceremonies were held for groundbreaking at the new public works facility in the industrial park and the city's sports complex off the Frontage Road north of Parrish Lane. The public works facility, which should be completed by this fall, will house city shops, a vehicle maintenance area, plus offices for public works, parks and recreation and streets departments. It will replace the current undersized facilit ' that's adjacent to the city hill. The first phase of construction on the sports complex will include storm drainage and grading only. T.ie city still needs another $200-300,000 $200-300,000 before phase two, which . would include sprinkler systems, seeding of lawn and installation of b -dkstops, can begin. Council r ambers participated in ceremonial beginning of both projects before regular council meeting. Among items discussed at council coun-cil were the waiving of a $16,762 storm drain impact fee to developers de-velopers of Smoot Homestead Estates Subdivision Plat A. Council felt that the developers deserved the waiving of the fees because of improvements im-provements they had already paid for in the area that would benefit other residents of the neighborhood. Approval was also given to the South Davis Fire District's efforts to purchase an aerial ladder truck, and a residential antidisplacement and relocation assistance resolution that was mandated by Centerville' s receipt of Community Development Block Grant funds. |
