The committee felt that they must invest themselves in money, organization and time to develop an industrial park. In 1965 land was auctioned and individuals paid$100 each , as a committment. This amount was found to be insufficient and the present financial investment is $15,000.

The NDC is also deeding a strip approximately 28 feet wide along the entire west side of this property to Payson City (without charge) so that Payson City can widen Third East Street.

It is a historical fact that the population in Utah has been dispursed equally between industry and agriculture. The founders of the vaUey were charged with the civic responsibility of balancing the population. Time was when industry caused the industrial population to migrate to urban areas. As communications and transportation became easier the industrial magnates found that their employees were more productive 'and life for them was more enjoyable in smaller communities than in urban life. Their objective then was to establish satellite industries within these communities. It was approximately four and one half years ago that George Jedenhoff of the United States Steel Company of the Geneva Works began encouraging the communities within Utah County to develop industrial parks with an' atmosphere to attract industry within their respective communities. It has since become a solvent organization known as the Utah Valley Industrial Development . Association. These parks would of necessity have all of the modern improvements. From UVIDA has come a combination of business and industrially-minded leaders together with devoted civic leaders with a common cause-thof developing Paysons industrial climate.
