Mayor 0. Dean Parker informed the council that he had received a letter from Fife Construction Co., stating the work on Highway 91 would reach the Weber Davis line Sept. 16.

Mayor Parker informed the council he had talked with Nelson construction and that as soon as some power poles are moved and the city crew moves several fire hydrants the area will be cleared. Caution Needed The mayor expressed confidence that the work could easily be done by 16th deadline. In regards to the special improvement district in Roy Mayor Parker reported that with the exception of 5400 South the job was nearing completion. Councilman Dale Bingham gave some rather definite opinions on the citys role in supervising special improvement construction. A lot of property owners resent a district in the first place and I felt that we (the city) should see every effort was made to do the job right, Mr. Bingham said. The councilman pointed out that many errors $nd mistakes in the current improvement district were being brought to the council's attention.

Pre-Scho- Virginia Wheelwright Oleson Seven Year West Poi nt Author Virginia Wheelwright Oleson, who has written the West Point news for The Sun Chronicle almost since the paper first started seven years ago, misses the mountains whereN she is living at West Point. She was born in Ogden, the fifth of seven children in the family of John Hyrum and Mary M. Roman Wheelwright. Her father, who once had a livery stable in Ogden, had a timber camp at Monte Cristo when she was jfoung and she grew up living in their log cabin in the mountains or in a tent, wherever her father's work took him. While from her home, which is divided by the West Point and Clinton line, she hat a beautiful scenic view of the Wasatch mountains, she still longs for the nearness of of them that she had as a child. Raise Flowers She has adapted herself very well, however, as a farmers wife during the past 24 years and divides her interests outside of her home and family in raising, flowers, doing genealogical work and pursuing to a small extent her ability as a commercitl artist, and writing for the newspaper. She also loves to cook.

HulL Mayor Parker emphasized that on a job the contractor is following the engineers;pecifi-cations- . The mayor held that in lieu of this the contractor could not be held accountable for all the mistakes. A word of caution that changes in construction after it once got underway would mean additional costs was also voiced by the mayor. If the specifications drawn up by an engineer call for certain requirements I dont feel qualified to challenge those requirements, the Mayor said. Were not experts, but we can voice an opinion, Councilman Bingham shot back. Mayor Parker alluded to the fact that many mistakes existed all over Roy. Councilman Bingham took the position that twp wrongs never make a right In other action the council gave an okeh to a telephone answering service for the police department. and setting up no parking signs along 2000 West south of 5700 South. . Problems Solved Director of "Public Saftey Councilman Dilworth Lyman urged adoption of the telephone answering service on the grounds that present listing in the current telephone directory directs the call to the police office in Roy. Often times the police are not there and costly delay has resulted ,Jdr, Lyman " ' ' said. Solution to the problem will be the answering service which will direct callers to. the proper number on a 24 hour basis. calls will be recorded by the answering service and the police will maintain consistent check on the calls with the service. No parking signs along 2000 West are the answer to the recent study of a traffic problem in that ared by Roy Police: Residents in the area had complained that cars belonging to patrons of a doctors clinic were causing a traffic hazard when parked in the street Chief Julian Green was given authority by the council tol?et the no parking hours and the length of the area Qd the street that will be designated for no ' . parking.

Chief Karras is making an urgent plea to all parent to do everything they can to supervise their children and to see that children are not playing V. . . with matches. No Punishment The plea follows the confession of two small youngsters who admitted to . setting last weeks fire that destroyed hundreds of crates containing surplus.

Fighting a fire costs each and every taxpayer money," the chief said. Fortunately - no lives and only surplus materials were burned in last weeks fire, the chief said. He added that homes can burn just as well as surplus materials and that in a fire it is not to difficult to lose a life.- , - Mr. Karras stated his appreciation for the cooperation of parents in determlng who caused the fires. The Youthswho set last weeks fire resulting in an estimated $13,000 worth of damage will not be subject to punitive punishment due to thetr ages. . " |
