Show Lakeside Review, Wednesday, Feb. 2, 1983 4A ILegishtme By SHELLIY KANCITIS Review Correspondent Rep. Nolan Karras, feels confident in his prediction about the current legislative session no one will be happy when it is over. With issues facing the lawmakers like censorship of cable television and a budget which is stretched to the breaking point, Karras is probably right. A recent incident convinced Karras he is a player in a n game. As I walked into church a person came up to me and said, Teachers badly need a pay raise. When I was leaving another person stopped me and said, Dont you dare raise taxes.

Bountiful Police Chief Larry Higgins said The Round Up Grocery Store at 435 S. 500 W. has been issued several citations for selling beer to minors. The establishment is becoming a place for underage individuals to buy beer, Higgins said. He noted that an undercover agent working for police recently bought beer at the store, despite the fact the agent was under age. The store, in the meantime, has changed ownership. Hal J. Farr, the new owner, said he has been running the business himself since he took over with only occassional help from relatives. Farr estimated that beer sales account for 25 to 30 percent of sales at the store. If I was not issued the (beer) license, it would bankrupt me, he told the Bountiful City Council. Farr said since he took over there have been no sales of beer to minors and that requests for beer by minors has decreased drastically. Farr said he has put up two large signs in a drive-i- n window and two more signs inside the store advising that beer will not be sold to minors.

Participants will meet for five consecutive Farr said. Ive even asked people over 30 lately for identification. Farr noted that he had worked at the store for two years and had never been cited. He did come to work one day, though, after another employee was cited. Officers came in and noted I was very careful in afternoons the week of Feb. from 6 p.m. The Childrens Photographic nonWorkshop is a profit organization which operates out of the Salt Lake Art Center.

I dont drink beer, myself and Im against that. But its an important part of my sales. Higgins recommended if the license were granted, that the council make a stipulation that Farr post a bond that could be forfeited if there are further violations. Councilman Paul Allen suggested a $1,000 bond. But the council approved the application with no bond stipulation. However, the license will be automatically revoked after the first violation, the council decided.

It's All in Eye Of Resident Beholder By KENT SOMERS Rsviaw Staff CLEARFIELD Ugliness was clearly in the eye of the beholder at the Clearfield City Council meeting last week. The council unanimously approved a zoning change that will allow the expansion of the Alana Motel, 116 N. Main, despite objections from one resident that it will make the city uglier. I am a native of this town and I have watched it grow from an ugly little town to an uglier one, said Eloise Wilcox. She accused the council of neg. lecting the private property owner in favor of business, and that has partially contributed to the towns appearance, she said. Drive through the streets with your eyes wide open, Wilcox told the council, and youll have a hard time to keep from upchucking. Another problem with the addition, said Beth Martini, 77 East 100 North, is the increased heavy trifek traffic through the area because of the addition. I can see what it is doing to the street and I dont like the noise, she told .the council. Our bedroom is next to the motel. Dudley Lewis, manager of the motel, said between 10 and 15 units would be added to the present motel. He estimated approximately 2 percent of his winter-tim- e -- business comes from truckers, rising to 5 percent in the summer. The motel is primarily for everybody that comes in and wants a room, Lewis said. Im not overly fond of truckers myself but I have to rent to them. Councilman Thomas C. Waggoner told the residents that the city has received complaints about truck traffic in the area, particularly 100 North, and is currently studying the problem. Councilman John A. Beutler said residents had a chance to buy the property where the extension will be built and said the added rooms would increase the citys tax base. Wilcox accused the council of economic reasons for approving the zoning request. But Councilman H.
