NEWS JOURNAL, MARCH17, 1977 ODass Members of the city council, planning commission and water department received very valuable information from a University of Utah Class studying the city. TEN WEEKS ago a class at the University of Utah chose Clearfield to study and make productions on in their city planning course. The students presented the data they have collected and at the end of the semester they will give the city all the information along with charts and maps they can use for further study. THIS WORKING with the city is primarily an educa- tional experience for the students. They are required to spend 15 hours a week working on this project. This project is not to be used instead of a city planning department, it is just a useful aid. Some of the things brought out by the students was that by 1980 Clearfield will be in need of more park facilities, also that the junior high is overcrowded and that there is a deficiency in the number of doctors and dentists in the area THEY FELT that the last would diminish problem because of the location of the new medical center. There are 5,877 gas customers, 3,380 power cus- tomers and 184 power hook ups. freeport SiMoes ALSO BROUGHT out was that personal economics is presently down because of recent cutbacks at Hill Air Force Base. A growth in the trade has come about since Max Factor and Associated Pipe were established at the Center. in Freeport unemployment Clearfield is one of the highest in Davis County.
