Shaw Jr. candidate for school position The speaker noted that the bicentennial offers a wide variety of opportunities to preserve the nation's heritage and inspire projects w hich can improve the quality of life. city officials discuss problems Midvale business men and some members of the Midvale city council got together Tuesday to discuss ways that the downtown Midvale shopping area can be improved for the betterment of the community. Of primary concern of both the businessmen and the city council are the parking lots in the downtown area. The parking lot on the east of Main St. is owned by the city. The property was given to the city by the Chamber of Commerce about eleven years ago. Since then it has been a controversial issue between city officials and downtown businessmen. The businessmen have claimed that the responsibility of the city to maintain the parking lot, but some city officials say that even though the city legally owns the parking lot that they should not have gotten into the deal in the first place. City officials would like to have a fifty fifty split with businessmen in resurfacing the lot. The city is willing to install additional lighting in the parking lot. and at the city council meeting Tuesday night authorized work on new lighting to begin as soon as possible. Lighting in the parking lot will cost the city approximately 13.000. If businessmen can raise appro! malely $2,150 in the next few weeks, the city will ejual that amount and resurface the Int.

The council agreed with some of the items in the proposal, but they felt that present laws, if enforced, are adequate to take care of problems existing in annexation procedures. The council also voted a pay raise for themselves at the Tuesday meeting. A public hearing on the pay raise for city councilmen was held in June along with the public hearing for the city budget. Opposition for the proposed raise was voiced by some citizens attending the June meeting. Upon the recommendation of Mayor Boyd N. Twiggs, the council voted Harold Shaw Jr. Harold J.

Mrs Sherry Graham, Arlo Dr., presented her deep concern on the drug problem to the Sandy City council Wednesday evening and re- ceived their undivided attention, although no solutions were expressed. Mrs Graham proposed many avenues as to how the city officials can set up programs manned by volunteers to help a teenager before he might turn to drugs. According to figures presented by Mrs Graham and Chief of Police Gary Lancaster, the Salt Lake County area is high on the list with definite drug problems. Of great concern is the rumor that LSD is being manufactured in Sandy. Wholesome recreation is proposed by Mrs Graham such as roping off a. street for a dance, having someone volunteer land where produce can be grown and sold by teenagers; senior citizens volunteering their services in teaching the old crafts or any crafts; for teaching archery classes, etc. The Police Dept. is working with the problem of drugs in Sandy and have specialized people who are combating the increase in what used to be only a small problem in the area. The department is in favor of using a preventive method rather than refering juveniles to courts and the detention home. John Rankin, Utah Transit Authority's general manager made a complete study of Sandy for a proposed bus route and presented his findings to the Sandy City Council Wednesday evening. His talk also included future plans in the Weber and Ogden areas and what the UTA would like to do in providing east and west traveling on buses for the public in Salt Lake County. Each of the malls were included in plans for patrons to be bused to these areas. Councilmen and the mayor were given maps to be studied before a definite route is decided upon. Possible bus service could be in Sandy by the latter part of November, according to Mr Rankin. After negotiating with the LDS Church for exchange or sale of property bought by the city from Mel Allen for a park, at approximately 9800 S. and 300 E., the. council decided to keep the property as is for further development for a park. Officials for the LDS Church will try to find another solution to their problem.

Hal Linke, of Templeton, Linke and Alsup. explained several items which were of concern to the council with regard to the Sewer District No. 1 contract which is being considered by the city, joining in with Sandy Suburban Improvement District.
