The voluntary council helps create an area -- wide awareness of problems which require area-wi- de handling. It can be instrumental in necessary development of a metropolitan concensus among government leaders. Most serious drawback to the voluntary council is its voluntary nature, placing a potential limitation on the capacity to reach "effective, enforceable, area-widecisions on issues of government services and controls." The council lacks the firm capacity to "bring tax jurisdiction and service area into adjustment." Such weaknesses, however, are mitigated by a council empowered to decide and effect decisions on the basis of a majority vote. Principal tools of the Voluntary Municipal Council are the Interlocal Cooperation Act (which Utah has) and whatever supplemental special legislation might be necessary to give the council legal entity status.. ..should the council desire tions.

"Now they're even calling people by telephone and inviting my customers over for a drink," he complained. It is becoming impossible for those honestly trying to abide by the laws to stay in business, one man complained. The unlawful sale of liquor by the drink is at its highest point in the past 30 years said one tavern operator. "We cant compete with the steadily expanding competition from liquor by the drink establishments in city and county." These businessmen, often targets for minor infractions of city ordinance.... targets far more often than locker clubs are targets of state lawviolation....these businessmen dont suspect that either police or county attorney personnel are involved in "payoffs" from locker opera- tors.... .....but they are convinced that the efforts of the courts and the staffs of prosecuting attorneys is something less than sincere. Of the 47 chartered clubs in City and County, 20 are in the city....many of them in the downtown area. Some of them are patronized by law enforcement officers.... both on and off duty.. ..officers who hold no membership cards and have no bottles in the establishments. For long years, police have wondered, and still wonder, why It is such a simple matter, for a prosecuting attorney to obtain on mere suggestion, the amendment of details of certain criminal or civil cases merely by enteringa motion... ....they have wondered why, in liquor cases, the prosecution is reluctant to enter the same motions.... why the prosecution makes all his errors on summons and complaints in liquor cases. And they have wondered....out loud.... why judges will suggest such motions for amendment in most criminal cases....but never in liquor cases. Its a matter of record.... police record, at least, where the records are all to be found.. ..that Salt Lake Police are anxious to enforce the liquor laws. The record does not point to as determined effort in Salt Lake County, where in past years some deputies complained they were prohibited by their sheriff from controlling liquor laws. It also is a matter of record.. ..until the records become hard to locate.... that the courts and the prosecuting attorneys are not overly anxious for liquor law enforcement. Minor penalties if cases get beyond frequent continuances, frequent dismissals. City Commissioner James L. Barker has declared that bars will comply with the law or close their doors It is a sincere determination.... but it is one that has been made before.... and even Mr. Barker needs the help of the courts and the prosectuion and of the state legislature.
