He briefly mentioned Utahs most controversial issue, the new strict abortion bill that would allow abortions only when the mothers health is threatened, if the fetus is severely deformed or in cases of rape or incest. The American Civil Liberties Union is challenging the bill in court "This is no easy issue and will continue to be no easy issue," the governor said, quickly moving on to other items.

But Bangerter said the incentives being provided to the aircraft manufacturer are not a significant figure in the scheme of their business. second-guesse- d, Pool complex to get sand volleyball court A new sand volLAYTON leyball court will be built this year next to Layton Surf N 'i Swim to replace the one that was eliminated lastyear for more parking space. The city council agreed to spend $3,245 to install a court in one of two loby cations near the swimming pool. Sand volleyball is becoming very popular, said' Dean Allen, city parks and recreation director. The city pledged to replace the volleyball court that was paved over when the new city office complex was built. Allen is considering putting the court near the southwest corner of the pool or near the Layton Commons bowery, where groups other than swimmers could use it. He said Monday hes leaning toward choosing the site right next to the pool because swimmers are the main group that has used the court in the past. The council also agreed to spend $2,900 to replace benches in the swimming complexs steam room. Apparent .construction Haws caused the benches to collapse, Allen said. The council tabled a request for $1,100 to build a shed for storage of the bubble that covers the pool during cool months. Schofield of Layton i X returned from Saudi Arabia Friday to a warm neighborhood welcome in his east Layton subdivision. About 20 households in his neighborhood decorated the street with balloons and posters to welcome the officer home, said one neighbor.

The public has the right to know who is paying for the campaigns, he said. We have a responsibility to let the public know how politics are run, Bangerter said. The governor also addressed environmental concerns. The biggest pollution device along the Wasatch Front is not the refineries, but the automobile, he said.

A number of area cities are also asking residents to voluntarily conserve on their culinary water usage. Kaysville has initiated a penalty fee for those who dont conserve culinary water supplies. Ivan Flint, general manager of Weber Basin Water Conservancy District, said the district will only be able to deliver 50 percent of its usual allotment to its secondary and agricultural irrigation users. All other area irrigation companies, except Davis & Weber Counties Canal Co., get at least part of their water from Weber Basin and must therefore follow the basins upcoming watering schedule fairly closely. Those with additional water supplies will be allowing their customers an extra day of watering. Flint said Weber Basin is obligated to deliver 100 percent of the culinary water area cities have contracted for. However, he said, if residents would voluntarily conserve these resources, the overall water supply would benefit. Due to a predicted drought this summer, secondary water providers have placed restrictions on when users in their districts can water lawns and gardens. Here is an outline of schedules for homeowners in North Davis County. Weber Basin Water Conservancy District (secondary water users houses may water only on Mondays and Thurson'y): houses days from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. or 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. may water on Tuesdays and Fridays following those same hours. addresses Haight's Creek Irrigation: residents with will irrigate only on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday. Residents with addresses will irrigate only on Saturday, Monday and Wednesday. Farmington Area Pressurized Irrigation District: residents with addresses will water Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday; those with even numbers on Saturday, Monday and Wednesday.

Because the company has early water rights it is predicting that it should have its normal amount of water this year. addresses will Kays Creek Irrigation: homes with d be able to water Mondays and Thursdays while those with addresses will be able to water on Tuesday and Friday. Syracuse secondary water system: the city has approved a two-da- y secondary watering plan asking voluntary compliance from residents. Under the system, the city is broken down into three areas. (See story.) Kaysville City Pressure Utility: this system should be on line April 15. Residents with addresses will water Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday while residents with even addresses will water Saturday, Monday and Wednesday. even-number- even-number- odd-number- even-numbere- trict. He said conservation by customers will be an important part of the companys ability to meet their needs. He said if the water schedules dont stretch water supplies, other measures will have to be taken. Other irrigation companies also say they are serious about the rationing measures. in many instances will result in termination of service and a $50 to $100 hookup fee the folNon-complian- Were all under the gun this year, said Aaron Richards, operation manager of the Farmington Area Pressurized Irrigation Dis- - lowing year. ... there is a title out there for Young Salesman of the Year, Timothy Andrus could probably claim it.

The school was hosting a in which the young patrons were challenged to sell candy to neighbors, friends and relatives.

Kaysville will require those residents who go over their allotment to thousand $1.50 per gallons pay 50 percent used thereafter more than the regular charge per gallon. Those who use over 20,000 gallons in a month will be charged $3 per thousand gallons 200 percent over that amount more than the regular charge. We want to encourage people to use secondary water where possible, said Marge Brande. city development coordinator. People should use only what they need and think of others, she said. A number of other cities are finding ways to encourage water conservation or are considering doing so. West Point published an article in its city newsletter encouraging residents to go on their own water conservation system and included some helpful hints to doing so. We felt we should try to save because we might need it for next year, said Mayor Howard Stoddard. A Fruit Heights newsletter also asked residents to put forth an extra effort to conserve water. We all know we are living in a desert state, said City Administrator Belva Provost. Syracuse City Administrator Mike Moyes said the city office has been inundated with calls from residents confused by recently announced cutbacks in the secondary water Weber Basin Water Conservancy will provide this year. Although the city purchases its secondary water from Weber Basin, They have no intent of managing our water system down here. They wholesale water to us, Moyes said.
