When washing squeaky toys put adhesive over the opening to keep water out during cleaning. Eureka City officials would like the old county courthouse located in Eureka, turned over to them for use as city offices. Mayor Don Treloar and Fred Garbett, city manager, asked the county commission at a recent meeting, to consider giving them the historic building. Most, if not all, of Eureka s City Hall would be turned over to the Tintic Historical Society to enlarge and expand the Tintic Mining Museum now located on the upper floor of the building. The transfers would save county taxpayers money because they would no longer have to pay utility, janitorial or maintenance expense Office space in the courthouse would continue to be provided to the county sheriff s department and the county justice court. One of the reasons the city is considering giving its present city hall to the Historical Society is that bringing it up to the Ameri- can Disabilities Act Code would cost approximately $120,000, and in the process, would destroy the historic significance of the build- j If the county decides to give the building to Eureka, public hearings would have to he held fhr decided to umtTi. could get further information on it. the abk archae-archaeologic- al off-roa- off-roa- off-roa- Three Eureka girls to attend Citv wants countv buildina Girls XuriiU-- r Yuba now closed to OR VS Yuba Lake State Park will be closed to off-roa-d vehicles effec- The House of Range Resource tive April 15, personnel from the Area of the Bureau of Land Man- Bureau of Land Management has the Juab County Commis- agement announces a fee increase for the Little Sahara Recreation Sion.

Fred Garbett told the council that the firemen plan to purchase a fire hydrant this month to be placed on McChrystal Street. The mayor mentioned that he would like to try and finish all fire hydrants this year. The firemen plan to test all hydrants in the spring. During the March meeting of Eureka City council, councilmen took action on the following business matters: Heard a report from Mayor Treloar on a meeting with UDOT attended by the mayor, Fred Garbett, June McNulty and Ed Webber, during which UDOT was asked if it would be possible to get Main Street cut down so work could be done on city side- walks. It was stated that the UDOT Budget had already been planned for the year; however. one of their engineers would come up to see what changes were needed. A follow-u- p on this matter will be made at a later date, the contract tween Eureka City and Juab County Sheriffs Department, for police coverage.
