I The center must upgrade its facilities to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act &nd would also like to build a 100-15- 0 seat theater. The center receives $15,000 a year from the citys general fund, which comes from taxes paid by Bountiful residents. 1 1 s t t 5 eral fund, which is used to cover the basic needs of the city, Holt said. Council member Harold Shaf-te- r said the board members for the center must raise their own funds for maintaining and improving the center. Surrounding cities that enjoy the Bountiful Center should also expend some funds towards its needs, Shafter said. member Stewart Knowlton said that remodeling Council Councilwoman Barbara Holt said that the current agreement with the center requires them to maintain the facility themselves. costs range from $80 to $200 per square foot, depending on how elaborate the plans are. We need to see some hard numbers on the improvements they plan to make, and what kind g of they have in mind, Knowlton said. Any additions to their center would draw money from the gen They did receive $300,000 from a single donor last year, Farmington Elementary kindergarten registration set Hardy said. It happens. The Bountiful city council unanimously approved the purchase of a new AS400 computer system for public safety and financial records. garten registration for Farming-toElementary is scheduled for Wednesday from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. Registering children must be 5 years old by Sept. 1.

Janet Anderson asked why new facilities are needed. She said, The facilities are already here. Anderson said the city should upgrade the old facilities or add the newly proposed park venues like skateboarding to old city parks with plenty of room instead of just building new parks. . One concern that many of the residents opposed to the skate park asked was what percentage of the city would use a skate jpark. I Resident Lane Auxry said she was concerned about how the 'city would control those w ho are not Woods Cross citizens and .undesirables who may bring in ;unvvanted problems like drugs and gangs to the park. I Ralph Argjle, citizen, argued ;Auxrys point saying, My kids atre just as susceptible to that (the ; drugs and undesirables) at school as they would be at this park. Some asked that since there was not a parking lot on the plans that the parking would block the view of drivers and obstruct traffic in the area. Others told the city official that there w'ould have to be restroom facilities and drinking fountains added to the plans. Although some were against the idea, many parents strongly voiced their opinions in favor of the skate park. Randy Lloyd, owner of the Boarding House - a Bountiful skateboard shop that has turned its basement into a small skate park - said, I wanted you to know that I have yet to have a problem in the Boarding House with these skaters. Lloyd said that although there would be some problems, the general population of skaters are fighting to get their sport recognized. He also told city officials to set some limitations on the skateboarding area, such as a curfew. Mike Ft'hriman, a major force of opposition to the skateboarding area of the park, said that Lloyd is likely to be in favor of the plans because he would be getting more business from it. A skateboarder, John Vaughan, stood in front of the council and said, We are Wilcox From 2 Woodworth said Wilcox treats her volunteering like a job. If she ;cant come, she calls. Working with resource children isnt the easiest job, and volunteers in the past haven't stuck with it, but Alta has, said Wood-wort- ys h. ; Not only is Wilcox teaching the children reading, shes teach-- ! ing them two of lifes greatest lessons: Dependability and consistency , said Shleifer. - !

City officials still do not know when construction will start on the new park. ! I The skate park in the proposed local community park was not the only park plans presented.
