Chet Waggener Public Works director, he would turn over a lot of his work as department director to another employee. That employee, in turn, might demand extra pay because he is doing the work of a department director. Porter agreed alter the meeting saying it would not be lair to In addition to creating a Public Works director, the amendment allows the chief administrative officer to exercise the administrative power of Provo City, including signing contracts, "except as the mayor may otherwise "We would have to be careful that other employees don't take on more responsibility and demand reclassification." Council members Stan Brown and V. lien Porter opposed the ordinance because of their concerns about the new position o! public works director. The ordinance provides that "the mayor may direct that the director ol the department of Water and Wastewater. Engineering, or. ..Public Services serve as director of Public Works. "The director ol Public Works shall exercise such supervisory powers over the Water and Wastewater, Engineering and Public Services departments, including their operations and personnel, as lime, be changed back and forth among the department heads. That flexibility would prevent problems in the supervision of the three departments. rector of his department. "We would have to be careful that other employees don't take on more responsibility and demand reclassification." Mayor Joseph Jenkins said the ordinance does not create another position. In addition, the Public-Workdirector might, at any s It adds, however, that the officer "may not approve or disapprove any ordinance, nor may he or she hire or terminate any office or department head." Jenkins did change his organizational chart from the last time he presented it to the council because of some disagreements on the necessity of one proposed change. The new chart leaves the council as the governing body of the Redevelopment Agency, the mayor as the chief executive officer and the director as administrative officer. The former chart put the Redevelopment Agency under the supervision of the Economic Development director.

By NORLEY HALL - city-owne- d City Studying conomic Fun By JOHN BEST Pleasant Grove Correspondent - PLEASANT GROVE Pleasant Grove City Council is beginning plans that they hope will someday establish an economic development fund to encourage new business activity in the city. The original fund amount would have to be started by Federal Community Development Block Grant and then loaned by the city to worthy businesses. Mayor David Holdaway said other cities have used similar grants and found it successful in promoting business. "We can use the boost in our downtown development and perhaps even redevelopment of some of our existing downtown sites." Holdaway said there is $675,000 in grant money available this year through Mountainlands Association of Governments. The total amount of money available is divided among cities in the Mountainlands Association. Average grant awards are usually near $100,000. To be successful in acquiring a grant the city must show some benefit to low and moderate income families, or meet the needs of an immediate emergency or promote economic development. "We would be applying on the basis of promoting economic development." "I visualize a loan board being made of councilmen and perhaps local bankers to disperse loan monies. The money would be offered at very low rates perhaps percent with a required payback of ten years. The money would be paid back to the city not the federal government. That would allow the money to stay in an economic development fund lor use in the city again and again," said Holda5 way. Before the economic development fund is every reality, a grant must first be obtained. Holdawav advised the council in a public hearing to consider the economic development fund option and ask for other grant requests. No response to additional grants was given. However, another information gathering public hearing will be held during the next council session on February 18 Pleasant Grove lias received federal community development block grants for the past two years that have both been used to extend sewer lines into the north Pleasant Grove area. That a:e,i had been under scrutiny of (cmty health authorities prior to obtaining the grants for the sew r extensions becpuse of unhealthy conditions resulting from failing septic systems. The grants helped run sewer lines into the area and eliminate the majority of septic problems caused by high ground water. In other council business the council approved a bid from Walt Limb Construction of Payson to install a new water line to improve the city's Wade Springs water system. Walt Limb's Construction bid of $40,516 was the lowest of 11 bids and came in approximately $300 lower than the engineer's estimate. The contract is to replace an existing 6 inch water line with a larger 10 'inch line that will save water from being wasted. According to Holdaway "The new line is part of our plans to refurbish the Wade Springs area. At present much of the water is running from Wade Springs into the canal because the present h line cannot handle the flow. The new line will allow us to utilize more water." The city's portion of the contract cost will only be $22,795. The Bureau of Reclamation will pay the remaining $17,721 because of an agreement made with the city councilmen to replace the water line where they will be working installing the Jordanelle Aqueduct.
