Kathy Lewis, the groups spokesperson, presented a petition signed by 11 4 Aland of Honey residents stating that the assessments should be paid by all users of Roys sewer system. Calling Aland of Honey the forgotten community, Lewis read a letter containing a variety of complaints including unfair utility rates, inadequate street lighting, and substandard street sweeping and snow removal. Residents are especially upset about the councils decision to increase lift fees from $2 per Photos by Rodney Wright month to $5.77 for the 1983-8- 4 fiscal year.

They were asked to give them to new homebuyers. Mike Steoger, owner of Micott Homes, the construction company that built Foxglenn, said 80 percent of buyers were told about the special lift station fees. We feel badly that all the buyers didnt receive the letter, but there was a two month period when the assessment situation was unclear and we didnt give out notices. According to Kirkwood, the only way that people who buy previously owned homes in the special sewer service district areas can find out about added assessments is to ask Roy City. The information is not included on closing papers because the fee is part of utility costs rather than property taxes. Lewis said it is unfair that Aland of Honey pays a $1.08 capital equipment charge per month for water and sewer costs since Hooper Water District provides the subdivisions water. She said this was a contradiction of the councils philosophy that people should only pay for what they use. Councilman Richard Ulibarri agreed it was not fair, There is no way to make everything fair. We try to make things as equita- ble as possible to the degree we can fashion it.
