Campaign Will Urge Postal Patrons to Secondary Water System Will Be i Discussed Friday Roy civic and business leadinto the proposed secondary water system for the city this Friday night at 8. A meeting at Mas and Pas Restaurant was called by Roy Mayor O. Dean Parker. Mayor Parker stated that the purposes of the meeting would be to explain just how the new secondary water system would work when It was installed. The presentation on the system will be made by Winn Templeton, city engineer. Preset plans call for the new system to take care of everything east of the railroad tracks to 5600 South down to 6000 Souh and to 3100 West.

A new fire truck is needed in Roy now, the chief told the council. Roy at present has two fire trucks, however, only one is able to draft water. The other due to a mechanical failure no longer has a drafting capability. The fire underwriters stated that Roys fire depart ment should have been able to draft 1,350 gallons of water five years ago, Mr. Karras said. Today we can draft only 1,000 gallons, he added. The chief informed the council that Roy would soon be rated again by the fire underwriters. He assured the council that the fire underwriters only recommend action that, should be taken for proper protection against fire. If a city does not want to follow the recommendations of the under-writers it does not have to. The rub comes into the picture as insurance rates are based upon the evaluation of the underwriters. Hence a bad rating means higher fire insurance for all those who reside in the community. A need for new fire stations was also urged by the chief. In his opinion a minimum of two would be needed within the not too far distant futures. One of the proposed approximate locations for a station would be on 2000 West between 5300 South and 5600 South. Incinerators also got into the act. The chief stated that under the citys current fire regulations their were no specific provisions for the type of incinerator that should be built. He recommended the adoption of an ordinance that would set-urules for construction of built-itype incinerators for public and private buildings. Mr. Karras also told the council that an ordinance prohibiting open type incinerators in high value areas, except as recommended by the fire chief, should also be adopted. Even if we get a new fire truck within a year we must face the fact the current trend of growth in Roys population will give need for another in the near future," the chief said. Roys governing body was also told that the city could use a part time fire marshall. Recommended pay scale for-thnew marshall would be $360 a year. This salary would be broken down and paid on a quarterly basis. , Roy fire protection could also be aided by installation of an No More Open Fires , other siren in the vicinity of 4400 South.

New Revision Fireworks came in for their small bit of attention at the regular meeting of the Roy City Council Monday evening. Eli ol Gourdin, manager Hamilton Drug Co., requested that the council give him permission to sell caps and sparklers for the coming Fourth ot July holiday. Mr. Gourdin pointed out that he wasnt advocating the sale of fire works but he wished the council would either permit the sale of sparklers and caps oy enforce the law. Councilmen agreed that since neighboring communities allow limited number of fireworks (o be sold enforcement of the law here would be just about impossible. The present law has been on the books pince 1953 and states that any type of fireworks are unlawful except caps. The upshot of the entire matter was that the council directed ciy attorney LaVar Stark to work out ail ordinance bare on the 1960 prevention r'jie. Adoption of the new ordinance will take place at the coming council meeting Monday evening so thA all Roy merchants will have an opportunity to sell the fireworks for the coming Fourth. At the direction of the council the new ordinance will permit retailerg and consumers to have caps aiid sparklers. Officials specifically asserted that the bars were down for nps nd sparklers only.
