The agreement proposed by the district which is similar to one the city agreed to with some recommendations from the city, isolates the city with the district boundaries up to its limits. The agreement says the district has right to .fof the water line from Ashley Spring and four-twelfths of Red Fleet water The motion passed by the council allows attorney Clyde the necessary latitude to firm up an agreement with Ashley Valley Water and Sewer D strict's legal counsel and permits him to do what he reasonably can within these realms to accomplish that In other business the council set June 25 as the date for the public hearing on the city budget, and corrected the Zoning of the Lloyd Swain property to R-3. Swain met before the meeting with the city staff and received clarification of the zone designation of land located at 700 South Vernal Ave. which was annexed into the city in 1976 including about 9.7 acres. Swain read to the council the 1976 minutes of the council meeting where the property was rezoned in which he claimed was to be R-3 allowing multiple dwellings. Acting City Manager Kenneth Bassett recommended to the council that although this zone designation was a possible mistake, it had to go the route stipulated by Utah State law requiring Swain to go through a rezoning hearing. Acting on the opinion of City Attorney David Burningham, and because Swain had invested substantial sub-stantial amounts in the property under the assumption that it was R-3, Gene Anfinson made the motion that the property be rezoned, and it passed unanimously.
