His information came from a recent survey. The four options included a road realignment at State St. and Main Street, a plan which cuts through downtown stores and businesses at an angle from south Main Street to 100 or 200 East, one-wa- y streets both northbound and southbound in the downtown area, and option four would be to align the street through the downtown city property. Young said the survey re-sults showed that 80 percent of those responding preferred the east block and 78 percent said the civic center should have good connections to Main Street. He showed several dif-ferent possibilities of places to put the civic center area down-town. Ken asked the council to consider how they feel about these options and then make a decision. City Administrator Scott Darrington said the city has already had a study done and did not know if others could be done. Mayor Bruce Call adJed that any option for a five lane road is going to be difficult to do. He added that he would like to have a two-bloc- k area between Main Street and 200 East and Center Street and 200 South as the new civic center area and leaving all the present businesses on Main Street from Center Street to 200 South. Council Member Lee Jen-sen noted that this program is not to revitalize the down-town area. It needs something to move forward thinking, he added. Jensen explained that he feels the downtown park should be expanded as it is not big enough for our town now. He added that he believes that the cost of the land is less than the cost of putting buildings on it. Scott mentioned that the city should get the county in-volved if roads are to eventually be part of the county system. The council decided to look at it again with more input before making a decision. At the onset of the council meeting when the public is in-vited to speak to the city coun-cil, one man asked the council about the rules for a kennel li-cense.

Mayor Call said the city will need to check on the license information for the kennel and see w hat can be done. A woman talked to the council about neighbors park-ing cars in front of her home on a regular basis. She also noted that the neighbors were putting their garbage cans in front of her home all the time. Although it was noted that a street is public property, City Attorney Tina Petersen said she will check up on it. A man addressed the coun-cil about the animals at the North Utah County Animal Shelter being sold to the University of Utah for research purposes. He said some of the animals are not held at the shelter long enough to be adopted by families before they are sold for research. He urged the city to take a stand on this matter to protect these animals from not being used for experimentation. City Administrator Scott Darrington said the city has in-vited the animal shelter personnel to come and talk to the council at the work session next week.
