COUNCILMAN Clair Snow had researched data on the rates of other neighboring communities and it was his feeling that rates for nonresidents were below the average rates in that other cities were charging and he felt they should be increased. The present rates for spaces in the Kaysville City Cemetery are $100 for residents and $125 for being the lowest in the county. FARMINGTON - Its all been uphill for the Davis County Information and -- Referral Service since it came into existence three years ago next month. JUST BY looking at a simple graph, its more than evident people are finding out about the service funded by United Way and Davis County. The agencys primary goal is to provide a service where people can obtain information and help in meeting a myriad of needs. The number of phone calls received has risen from 71 in March of 1976, the first month for which records were kept, to 850 in December, the highest number ever received. DIRECTOR Marilyn Kelsey is confident that as more people become aware of the service, its use will continue to jump. She sees a definite need for it and said, A survey done by the Wasatch Front Regional Council in 1976 for Davis County showed that people didnt know about the services available and needed help in finding ser am vices to airai alleviate that problem. The jump in phone calls shows the need and there has been growth as we have become known, she said. Its inevitable that as our county grows we will have more services so that people dont have to go elsewhere." CALLS ARE received fur everything imaginable from requests for rental housing to help in working out utility service or billing problems. Financing problems and legal aid assistance are the two biggest areas indicated by telephone calls, Mrs. Kelsey said. Unfortunately, while I&R can direct callers to help in many instances there are numerous requests that can't be adequately met, she said. "We have several requests for legal assistance to middle income families at a nominal fee. There is legal aid for indigents only, at present, in the county. MEDICAL help is another area needing constant atten- tion, she said relating a recent case in point. "A family called in the day before Christmas and said - they needed help for their sick little girl. After one week they called again and said she was still sick. All we could do was call a north Davis clinic and they provided assistance and agreed to write the bill off. But how many favors can these people do? The only health service regularly offered in the county at present is a health departmpnt-snonsore- d well-bab- y clinic, she said. Both Salt Lake and Weber counties have programs set up to provide health care aid. A FREE listing of all ren- in the county is greatly needed as well," Mrs: Kelsey said. We just refer them to the paper (Clipper, Reflex, News Journal) or they tal units from 8:30 a.m. - 5 p.m. with a recording service available otherwise. In south Davis, I&R can be reached at 1 and in north Davis the number is While the Davis agency is still learning how best to walk at its young age, similar organizations in Salt Lake and Weber counties are even newer and Mrs. Kelsey proudly points to the fact that Davis I&R serves more people per capita than any other in the state. 867-515- 825-515- INFORMATION is the name of the game and Mrs. Kelsey said presentations can be made to service clubs and other groups. FARMINGTON Veteran Davis County commissioner, Glen W. Flint, has been named commission chairman for an indefinite term of from one to two years. MR. FLINT was appointed commission chairman by vote of the two new county commissioners, Ernest Eberhard and Morris F. Swapp last Thursday. He has served as chairman several times during his reign of 16 years as a county commissioner. "1 appreciate the appointment and will strive to uphold this position to the best of my ability," said Comm. Flint. Im looking forward to working with you two newly elected commissioners and I know that both of you will do a can call individual agents. But one place is needed as a clearinghouse and I&R would be a natural. There are a lot of people moving to Hill Air Force Base, for instance, and they need help and what about the elderly who had their rent raised and cant meet it with their Social Security check or the young families, she said. SUNSET Permits for construction totalling about $76,000 were issued by Sunset city during December. THE AGENCY is able to respond to calls weekdays approved at Building Permits Iss ued By Sunset - TWO NEW dwellings were 230 and 240 West North for $33,000 each. Floyd Sucher received both 2050 permits. A remodeling project costing $3,000 and finishing of a basement for $6,000 were the only other major permits granted, tb real fine job. COMM. SWAPP . is new to county government but has served 16 years as mayor and council member of Bountiful. Comm. Eberhard is new to politics but he. ten, has considerable experience serving on civic and government-appointe- d committees. According to county policy, a commission chairman is appointed by popular vote of the commission members. The term of office is not definitely set, but usually varies from one to two years. C.E. (BILL) Moss is former commissioner chairman. He retired from office after completing his elected term on Dec. 31. grb THE WEEKLY REFLEX 197 B.
