Show Wednesday, March 2, 1977 Page Sewer Board Members Asked to Resign Posts Continued From Page 1 recently discovered he had only received permission to move a sewer pump station from Park Meadows I to Park Meadows II. Johnson noted that the HUD filing is for purposes of disclosure, not to insure that the project has sewer. The engineer said he realized the status of the district with the impending bond election and the failure of the previous election and that he was looking for "any way to get off dead center." He added that the subdivisions have received city approval and have fulfilled the bonding requirements. The board voted to compose a letter stating its intent to accept sewage from Park Meadows but noting that actions by the state could alter the situation. The actions referred to are a state order prohibiting additional hookups to the city system should the bond election be defeated. The city's treatment plant is considered to be substandard at the present time Johnson said the letter would satisfy his needs. Deer Valley Impacts Presented to Officials Continued From Page 1 Flat ski facilities eventually will be able to accommodate 12,000 skiers but King notes it is planned that the number of skiers will be limited to 9,000. "History shows that only two-thirds of the visitors are on the mountain skiing at any one time," he said when comparing ski and lodging capacities. Traffic Impact "It is recognized that the Deer Valley-Lake Flat Development will have a major impact on the traffic pattern in and out of Park City," John Demkowicz told the city officials. Citing a study prepared by the Utah Department of Highways analyzing the growth pattern of Park City and present and future traffic flows, Demkowicz said the major recommendation made by the report affecting the proposed resort is "a new four lane highway adjacent to Silver Creek between Heber Avenue and State Route 248." Construction of the new highway bypassing Park Avenue means "there should be minimal disruption of existing traffic patterns within Park City. Most of the traffic will not be channeled along upper Park Avenue or Main Street, but rather along the new and adequately sized highway." As for the entrant' to the resort running into Deer Valley from the Heber Avenue-Marsac Avenue intersection, Demkowicz said a four lane road would be constructed. Snow Drought Of Park City The drought has taken its toll on the Park City business community. With a shortage of precipitation causing a shortage of tourist dollars, a relatively large number of local businesses have been put up for sale. "It would be easier to ask what businesses are not for sale on Main Street than to ask which are," a realtor quipped. At least nine businesses in the downtown area have been placed on the block, most of them in the last 60 days, and almost all the offerings are the direct result of the lack of snowfall, according to local real estate sales people. The recent storms will do little to alleviate the situation, situ-ation, one realtor said. "They're hurt as bad as they're going to be. Some of them never had a chance." As for the prices being asked, the Newspaper was told, "They're too damn high for sick businesses." "Almost all of them really want to sell," he added, "but KA C A nnounces Class Registration The Kimball Art Center has set Tuesday, March 8th through Friday, March 11th, for spring quarter class registration. Classes will begin on Tuesday, March 22nd. Some 30 different classes are represented in the spring quarter schedule with classes class-es available for children and adults days, evenings and weekends. "We're continuing and in fact expanding what have proved to be our most popular offerings."said Alan Crooks, Director of the Kimball Art Center. "These include ceramics, photography, photo-graphy, weaving and fiber." Several new courses have been added They include Clay, Glaze and Firing for advanced ceramic students, On and Off-Loom Weaving, Indian Backstrap Weaving, Qa.it :..! g Making, Film Appn-i -UA.-xi. and Printmak-ing Printmak-ing A Stage Voice and Diction course and a course in Play Production designed fpecialK for amat eurs involved in social, civic or school plays are available this spring quarter. The traditional drawing, painting, paint-ing, crafts, as well as dance and Spanish classes are also available. "We try to anticipate the needs of the student community com-munity each quarter," continued con-tinued Crooks, "and then create classes to meet those needs." Crooks added that several children's classes will be offered after school and on weekends including a new sculpture class that will introduce youngsters to such media as paper mache, clay, wood and plaster. All adult classes are available avail-able on a non-credit basis for $45; children's classes' are $25 and include cookies and beverage after school. Some adult classes carry university univer-sity credit. Copies of the complete spring quarter schedule of classes are available at the Kimball Art Center. For information call 649-8882 Facts Jim Kaiserman of Call Engineering presented the board with some statistics comparing the regional plant to an expanded city treatment plant. The board told Kaiserman the facts presented were not specific enough and asked that he formulate a more definite comparison of costs. During discussion on the regional plant versus the expanded city plant, Jack Green said numerous citizens citiz-ens are equating general obligation bond funding with special improvement districts, thinking G.O. bonds will mean automatic assessments against property. Green emphasized that the G.O. bonds, if passed, would be retired solely through revenues generated by the sewer district. It was also noted that the increase in service fees from $3.35 to $5.00 was a function of the bond market and could not be avoided by raising connection fees. The board said bond buyers will not purchase bonds on the strength of projected hookup fees, but rather they look at the revenue which can be generated by existing service connections connec-tions to guarantee payment. King disagreed with his consultant, saying a two lane road with access lanes would be sufficient. The new resort will have parking for 2,820 cars including 450 spaces for day skiers. Peak traffic occurs on weekends, Demkowicz said, with the busiest inflow occuring around 10 am and the maximum outflow occurring before 6 p.m. The proposed four lane road into Deer Valley which King objected to could "accommodate peak volumes several times the expected peak traffic volume," Demkowicz said. The day skier will be allowed to drive only as far as a ski information center located on the perimeter of the development. He will park there and be transported by bus to the ski lift terminals. Vehicles passing beyond the information center will require a special pass. Plans ultimately call for 12 miles of roads within the deer Valley-Lake Fat Development at an estimated cost of $3,100,000 in 1977 dollars. Snow removal and minor maintenance are expected to run $9,600 a year with resurfacing of half the roads needed every five years at a cost of $200,000. After calculating interest rates, Demkowicz Dem-kowicz said the annual maintenance cost for the roads would be $43,600. This expense would be incurred by Park City should the project be approved. Taking Toll Businesses there are no bargains yet." Real estate sales in general were characterized as "active" "act-ive" with the only missing ingredient being the visiting skier "who buys a condo on impulse because he had a good time skiing here." One of the forces aggravating aggrava-ting the drought conditions is amount of money invested in businesses on the strength of last winter's banner ski season. But there was disagreement dis-agreement among real estate es-tate people as to the effects which will be observed this summer. One said he expects a "boom" based on the "many good things that are happening happen-ing in town." Another predicted "lower expectations" and said, "We won't see the dress-up we saw last summer. This is unfortunate." As for the long-term repercussions, reper-cussions, we were told, "This is only temporary. Next fall everybody will forget all about it when the snow falls." Here's hoping.

The compressor belonging to contractor Ken Shoulders was taken sometime between be-tween February 25 and 28. Also stolen was 50 feet of hose valued at $50.
