Show LAKE 1327 ElTYi WAH 84 uo 1 .rjvr- - THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1976 - VOLUME TWENTY SEVEN FORTY-SEVEN-NUMB- D D I B Consolidation and centralization are needed to provide transportation for the elderly and handicapped, John Inglish, Wasatch Front Regional Council Assistant Director for Transportation, told the council. THE recommendation was a result of an extensive study undertaken by the transportation committee of the WFRC which provides services in the five county area including Davis, Salt Lake, Weber,, Tooele and Morgan counties. Mr. Inglish said the study revealed that transportation needs are not being fully met for the elderly and hanwho are dicapped, characterized by low income. Fifty percent are near the poverty level. The 120,000 elderly and handicapped are concentrated in the central business districts or fringe areas, which are best served by public transportation. I ACCORDING TO Mr. Inglish, while 85 of the elderly and handicapped could use public transportation, only 35 of this group utilize the cut rent system. We need better awareness of existing public transportation for better utilization, he said. The transportation committee, headed by Mayor Glen Cundall, recommended better communication between the an and user, provider improvement in the existing system, and the consolidation Kaysville Chamber Holds Meet The board of the Kaysville Chamber of Commerce met Wednesday at Kaysville City Hall. Various matters were discussed and a general membership meeting will be held Wednesday, Dec. 17, 1976 at the Kaysville City Hall at 10:30. PRESIDENT presided. Tom Hori, and centralization of special services for the handicapped and elderly. MR. INGLISH said social service transportation programs are fragmented and inefficient. He suggested that social service transpor-- , tation agencies, private agencies, and public transportation agencies, such as Utah Transit Authority, be centralized. Improvement to existing systems could result if public transportation would provide flexible scheduling to nursing homes, audio systems for the blind, and fair incentives for k those riding during off-pea- periods. RALPH STOWELL, Administrative Assistant to Salt Lake City Commissioner Jennings Phillips, told the WFRC that the establishment of a Foreign Trade Zone at the Salt Lake City International Airport would create 4,000 jobs for Wasatch area residents. The council voted in favor of the concept which would provide a site near Salt Lake International Airport to be maintained by the U. S. Customs Service. The trade zone would be a means by which local, businesses could sell their wares on an international level, he said. Such a zone would enhance the cash flow since international business would not have to tie up the money in tariff or duty. re MR. STOWELL said, Any item which finally enters the market will eventually pay duty. The foreign trade zone would function as a utility, not as a money-makin- g project. WFRC accepted contracts from District 2 and District 12 Law Enforcement Advisory Councils to provide crime prevention services. Judge Paul Grant, Chairman of the Advisory Council for Region 12, said the grant for the fiscal year from July 1, 1974 to Sept. 30, 1976 needed to be amended to include an additional $26,762, nor originally approved by the council. WFRC ALSO approved a change in the grant for next year which would include a $123,160 budget for personnel, consultant and contract ser- vices, travel, supplies and operating costs. Salt Lake County Commissioner William Dunn reported The Sunset City Council members discussed problems on Thursday evening concerning the city. RODNEY Hasler brought before the council a fire prevention measure, asking that the council make it possible that people check their furnace filters and if needed to replace them, because dirty filters can cause an overload on the furnace which may and can result in a fire. It was suggested that a statement concerning the furnace filters be a place as a reminder to Sunset residents on their next water bills. Other business discussed was By ROSELYN KIRK Davis County has received a $450,000 federal grant to study noise as a nuisance and make land use recommendations in the area surrounding Hill Air Force Base. JOSEPH Moore, Davis County Planning Director, said the study, funded by the Four Corners Regional Commission, may be the first grant awarded in the nation to study noise nuisance near a military base. The study will examine noise, give recommendations on how to live with it, legally protect residents and suggest appropriate land use. Mr. Moore estimates the study will take 18 months to ac- complish after the grant money is received. that the WFRC audit had been completed and would be available to council members shortly. Dealing with budget matters, the council agreed on a 6V2 cost of living raise for the staff of the WFRC. The council also that the Sunset City Council was in full support of Clearfield High School Booster Club and are urging people to donate to the cause of lighting the Clearfield High School week to Sunset businesses asking them to discontinue the selling of pornographic magazines and materials, as the city council had gone on record as being against this practice and hoped that the businesses who were doing this would discontinue this football field.

THE DAVIS Planning Commission, along with consultant Tom Mabey, Project Manager for Environmental Science, initiated applications for the grant eight months ago. Last week both went to Albuquerque, N.M. to discuss the implications of the grant with the Four Corners Regional Commission. The discussion resulted in Nevada Arizona and representatives agreeing that they would also be interested in the results of the Utah study. Both states have noise nuisance problems with military installations located in their states.
