Show Pleasant Grove Review New Utah - Thursday, April 3, 2003 - Page 12 Miss Lose Seibold said she went before the city council to get everything out in the open. "I don't want people to have rumors spreading about me," she said. "I didn't want (the mayor) to have the upper-hand. He can't intimidate intimi-date me." Mayor Jim Danklef said he only spoke with Seibold privately to save her from embarrassment. "I don't think it should be a public issue," he said. Though he would not comment com-ment on the private meeting he had with Seibold, Danklef said, "I did not call her dishonest dis-honest and did not call her a liar." The whole situation has other neighborhood chairs worried. "I think I'm next," said Stringtown chair Barbara Wells. Wells said the mayor and city council have already asked her to resign once before. Dan Shaw, Big Springs chair, hopes the council lets his 2-year term expire but is afraid they may use Title 2 to get him out. Shaw, who narrowly lost the mayoral election in 2001, recently tangled with the city council over his position on the now disbanded arts council. coun-cil. "They appointed me in March of 2002 but then forgot for-got and said I wasn't a member," mem-ber," he said. Danklef said Shaw and his wife never were permanent members and that their position posi-tion over Heritage Days has now been eliminated because the celebration has been joined with Strawberry Days. Though Seibold pointed to the mayor's disbanding of the arts council as evidence the mayor is removing volunteers volun-teers who don't agree with him, the mayor said that wasn't his intent. "I didn't have anything to do with it. People resigned because of the fuss Judy Noziska and others were making," Danklef said. ITninari off tores tik&z airEini'ti:? Come to... 74 N. West State Rd.

"People won't want to volunteer vol-unteer because they don't feel free to express themselves. them-selves. They've squelched the concept of volunteerism in P.G.," he said. "As long as (volunteers) do what the mayor and council want them to do, they're fine - if they don't they're gone." Earlier problems with the shortened terms of two plan ning commissioners have led to a lawsuit against the city. Victor Orvis was removed from the commission in February Feb-ruary 2002. Ernie Bramwell resigned at the same time under pressure from the city council, but has since brought suit in Fourth District Dis-trict Court against the city because of the situation. "My term was improperly or illegally shortened by the city council," said Orvis. "Some members of the city council only want one voice -theirs. There is room for no form of even polite, informed dissent." For legal reasons, the city could make no comment on the pending court case. Bramwell could not be reached for comment. Danklef feels it is himself and city council who are being unfairly treated. "It hurts everybody to have a few people sit in the back and badmouth every move you make," he said. "We're the elected officials. If they want to change things they need to run and get elected in," he said. Seibold argues she was voted in and the city shouldn't should-n't take that position away. She is even looking into whether or not the city council coun-cil can legally fail to ratify an elected position. "Volunteers should be left alone to volunteer. They're there to help and improve the community," she said. Mteo - . Convenient 5 r 9 E M u B f; I- 4 i U ( tit I J - a wns stonned in under the influence. Driver was cited and taken to lU1.

However, despite the planned layout, several concerns con-cerns were brought up. They included noise, dust, the 6 ft. clay cap, and the Pleasant Grove city council. The noise was addressed in a sound test conducted a few weeks prior, which proved to be nothing in comparison the noise that I-15 I-15 generates. The dust was addressed by a planned sprinkling system and the purchasing of water rights. The six-foot clay cap is unlikely to be a problem because motorcycle tires only kick up little amounts of dirt, according to a Monarch Honda representative repre-sentative who attended the meeting.

The commission's understanding under-standing is that Pleasant Grove is concerned about noise, which has been proved unproblematic, and the eventual even-tual placement of businesses in the surrounding area. In answer to future businesses, the commission only granted a conditional use permit, which is a maximum of two years. It is highly unlikely that the growth will spill onto that side of 1-15 in two years. However, if the site becomes a nuisance as warranted war-ranted by numerous complaints, com-plaints, it can c shut down at any time. In two years time, if it was approved by the Lindon City council, the company will have to go through the approval process again to determine the success of the site and the future of the area. vor wan r K.HROR.
