DRIVERS will notice Gordon Ave. is a through street. There are stop signs on both Fort Lane and Church St. None of the street segments have been Although this intersection was closed in Oct. of 1979 when the final road building contract was let, the construction has been going on at this site for about six years. dead-ende- THE BID for the final phase of the road was let at $180,000. Contractors exceeded this amount because more fill dirt was needed than the bid antic- ipated. This extra expense brought the final phase construction costs up to between $240,000 and $250,000. Total cost for the road over the six year construction period is somewhere between $300,000 and $350,000. Included in this figure is engineering, land purchase, land fill, grading and installation of a drainage system to handle the water of Kays Creek. IMPROVEMENT of this intersection and widening Gordon Ave. to Fairfield Road was one of the sipulations Layton city agreed to when the developers of the Layton Hills The road took longer to complete than was anticipated becuase soft spots in the fill dirt base kept appearing. This was caused in part by peiple who dumped loose soil, branches and clippings on the site during the early fill stages when concrete and asphalt pieces were being used for fill. THE ORGANIC material would decay, leaving weak spots in the base. Even though signs advising against dumping were placed on the job and the construction workers THE consolidated city would operate with a ten nun othemite hate to be on Melfare. collect chilJ support pay ments from abtent Mho Mould fathers. THE BUREAU currently collects about $3 ror evey $1 spent in enforcement. This is the bett collection rrccord in ihe United States. Even so. the bureau is only successful in collecting payments from 20 percent of the responsible parents in each month. Many of these collections are multiple month's obligations, however. The collection procedures are handled through the re- spective county attorneys offices. These include action to garnish wages and-o- r to Ic vy on property of a parent. THE ONLY kind of compensation which is not currently subject to garnishment is un- employment compensation. The federal employee's salaries are subject ot garnishment up to 60 percent of the gross payroll for child support. Most wages paid by private em- ployers are only subject to garnishment up to 50 percent of gross payroll. The Internal Revenue Service now has statutory authority to assit in the collection process where the bureau is unsuccessful in getting inter- attorneys council until the next general election.

Mayor K, re- moved as much unwanted de- bris as possible, the actions of some unthinking individuals did slow down construction. A second problem that slowed construction was the heavy spring rains. Trucks driving on the fill acted like sponges and brought water to the surface of the road. It took time for these wet spots to dry. Some sections had to be dug out and new fill placed in the holes. LAYTON PUBLIC Works Director Rulon Thornley , feels the delays and the inconvience it has caused to people living near the site will be worth the price for the road, as it has been carefully done and should be a lasting and quality road addition to Layton. Mr. Thornley feels the opening of this intersection will not increase the traffic flow on Church St. or Fort Lane. Traf fic will increase on Gordon Ave. as people travel to and from the Layton Hills Mall. placed on the ballot, Mr. Badey revponded by wywg ihe only way the iwuecouUbe to a vote of (he people wa fui the citizen pennon, THE MkOR then addressed the cinen. saying, n up to you.

The state has told cities and counties that cuts in the state budget means city and requirement. county governments will have to assume some of the costs for road improvements. Substan- PLANS FOR othe road improvements in Layton were the traffic needs of Layton. Top priority was given to the intersection of Gordon Ave. and Hill Field Road. The city has made application fora traffic light at this intersection but a traffic study must be completed and then the proposed light will be placed on the DOTS waiting list where it will stay until the need is considered great enough and the funds are made available for the light. THE TRAFFIC study began Aug. 7. It will include the amount of traffic using the intersection and the number of accidents that occur at the site. Mayor Shields indicates the accident rate for 1979 was five for the year. In 1980, there have been four accidents since the Mall opened. Other plans to improve traffic flow in the Mall area include painting directional arrows on Hill Field Rad and eventually installing traffic lights at the base of the freeway off ramps.
