David Somstrom was denied a zoning extension for property which his company will own on the northeast corner of Antelope Drive and Hill Field Road. He told the City Council last week that his company was in the process of obtaining the property by foreclosure through a settlement with the original developers, which would be completed by the end of January. The Council had granted several extensions to those developers in order to keep the property from reverting to its original agriculture zoning. Somstrom said that his group was requesting another extension of the zoning to make the property more appealing to potential developers but that his firm had no exact construction project to submit yet. He did say that they hoped to find commercial developers who would be interested in the property in the near future.

Roy Detective Doug Rochell two said three male juveniles were age 17 and one age 16 spotted running out of the front door of a Roy home. ' Two of the youths were later arrested on a residential street at 2300 N. 450 W. in Sunset after they were spotted by Roy officers, according to Rochell.

The new master plan for Lay-to- n is now under consideration and should be adopted in the near future. According to City Planner Scott Carter, the property in question could possibly fall into a mixed use area at that time allowing for both residential and commercial construction. A motion, based on the recommendations of the planning commission, was made by Councilwoman Ann Harris to let the master plan take care of it and was unanimously passed by the council.

Comaby is expected to rule this week on whether the Davis County Board of Health has the authority to charge restaurants an inspection fee. A lawsuit was filed by the Utah Restaurant Association and Anthony's Restaurants after the health department sent lnrd By KENT SOMERS Rtviaw Staff . bills charging approximately 250 food service establishments in the county for the fee. The basis of the suit, said Ron Morgan of the URA, is that an appointed board should not have the right to impose fees. Its taxation without any type of representation, Morgan said. They are picking out a single industry and imposing a fee. But Richard Harvey, county environmental health director, said the fee is consistent with what the state and county are doing in other areas. The whole emphasis is a fee for a service, Harvey said, adding that the inspection fee is based on the same principle as those who enjoy dog licensing restaurants, like those who enjoy pets, will be paying for inspection and maintenance services. , Continued on Pag 5A annbltes1 on Hall.
