Old vehicles are being kept, in many instances, in the street and on lots throughout the city. They continue to multiply year after year, until it is quite evident, something must be done. It is recognized that differences of opinion are inevitable and that they must be approached with understanding. Letters are being written, personal contacts made and in the very near future, a canvas of the city will be made. Citizens will be advised and asked for support in ridding the community of this blight. Payson is experiencing a period of growths Others are recognizing its beauty and potential as a great place to live. The West is being discovered and as people live closer and closer together, they must be prepared to meet demands of the situation. The solution to some of these problems may mean giving up individual rights, yes even your old car. This may well be the test to determine whether we can cope with the changing pace of Payson as it looks to the future.
