Those figures wont be known for at least another week and could add $650,000, Library Director Jeanne Layton said. ect At the annual business session of the Utah League of Cities and Towns, the general membership unanimously elected Norman R. Sant, Mayor of Sunset, as league president. Mr. Sant is only the THE SOUTH Branch improvements talked about for many months, concentrate on bringing the building up to federal handicapped accessible levels. An elevator and restroom changes make up most of that $175,000. Smaller amounts would go for a new book drop, necessitated by the elevator going where the book repository now is, and for some modifications to the downstairs auditorium. Com.

That wont affect 1986 but will impact 1987s budget. the support of many legislators on the return to cities of the V sales tax monies originally held by the state for flooding. This issue will be heard during the legislative session, a news relt- -. from the league says. Mr. Sant has served as mayor of Sunset for eight years and prior to that was a city councilman. He has been deeply involved with League activities since 1977, serving on va in securing CURRENTLY, the county levies just over 12 mills for general expenses. State law limits that to 16 and the county could be bucking into the range if it continues services to the level previously afforded including revenue sharing, Mr. Saunders indicated. The library mill levy now stands at about 2.2 and could increase to 2.5 or 2.6. Thats still far below the state limit of 3.75 mills. up-nir- .g 14-pl- MAYOR SANT has been a strong leader within the League and played an important part in bringing about major changes in policy and direction when League first membership was in a turmoil. His leadership provided the continuity which has resulted in the strong position the League holds today, and its continued growth in membership, the news release says. 1982, he was honored as the IN' "Outstanding Elected Official for the year at the Leagues annual convention. He has long been recognized as the voice for small cities and towns, especially in matters such as the sales tax issue which resulted in a compromise position whereby small cities and towns share in the sales tax revenue regardless of the point of sale. This compromise has resulted in additional monies to these small cities and towns not previously available to them. In Sunset, he has been active in sports and athletics, serving as coach and director of the little league recreation program for 10 years. HE IS employed at Hill Air Force Base as chief of the 6 production management office. He and his wife Connie, are the parents of four children and grandparents of six. F-1- NORMAN R.
