Davis County Commissioners are wrestling with ways to proceed with the correction of storm water problems in Davis County after the Council of Governments (COG) disapproved of the process used by the storm drain committee for setting priorities. LAST WEEK the 11 out of the 16 mayors present at the COG meeting voted against beginning on any storm drain project until criteria was set for establishing priorities. Commissioner Glen Flint said the action of the COG came even before he was able to report the five priority projects that had been selected by the storm drain committee for action. He said the five mayors of the cities whose projects had been approved were not present at the meeting. Mayors from Clearfield, Layton, North Salt Lake, Clinton and Bountiful were not present. ALTHOUGH Commissioners Glen Flint and C.E. Moss both said they felt the cooperation of the COG was essential before beginning any project, County Attorney Milton J. Hess said, the county has the authority to move ahead and develop a storm water system for the county. A two mill levy increase will provide over $500,000 in 1978 to begin work on some storm drain projects. Mr. Hess told county commissioners and other members of the storm drain committee, Glenn Austin, Rolf Nelson and Gene Nielsen, that the county can levy for storm water needs, set up main lines and condemn property if necessary to provide a storm drain system for the main stream channels. COUNTY Commissioners agreed that cooperation with the cities was important, although the official approval of the COG was not legally necessary. They said the storm drain committee will draft a criteria for the selection of projects. This list will be sent to the cities prior to the next COG meeting with a letter suggesting that the city add other criteria they want included. County Planner Joseph Moore said the storm drain project hinges on cooperation with the cities. He said that in Salt Lake County where the city has a similar agreement, the city didnt get any agreement to spend money for storm drains for at least a year. But, he said, after the cities realized that eventually COMMISSIONER Flint said the COG has spent a year hasseling back and forth on how the storm water money will be spent. He fears that immediate flooding needs cannot wait. He sited the problem at 2600 South which involves the county, as well as Bountiful and North Salt Lake. Mr. Austin, county engineer and a member of the storm drain committee, said that he felt the county criteria should be set up in such a way that all criteria would not apply to every project. Each project should meet some of the criteria, he said. But we cant have every project approved by COG. COMMISSIONER Flint agreed that the county would have to justify the selection of the projects because otherwise the cities would say the decisions were arbitrary and based on political pressure from the cities who were awarded the projects. The committee agreed that when once formulated, the criteria needs to be formalized and published in order to receive approval from the mayors. IN OTHER action in connection with the storm drain project, the mayors made an amendment to a resolution which has been before them for three months but has still not been approved. This resolution would require that all subdivisions and industrial and commercial developments in the county be approved by both the city and county engineers prior to construction and a fee assessed which would be used for the construction of flood control measures caused by that development. This will be the third time the document, which was drafted by Mr. Hess, has been revised. The document as amended will be mailed to the mayors prior to the next COG meeting with the hope that the mayor? can get city council approval prior to the next meeting. PLAN SPOOK ALLEY Effiri M8P The Clearfield Chapter of Farmers 6f America, has been noted on its outstanding members throughout the state. But if you look behind these indicated that they wanted to have the criteria for storm drain projects passed by the city councils prior to the expenditure of any money on the storm drain control. Mr. Nielsen said the time the county waits for the criteria to be worked out, could be used to prepare designs and plans on projects included on the storm drain priority list that resulted from a two year 208 Water Quality Study. This would allow construction to begin immediately when approval is granted. students, you will find a man who helps these students better themselves.

Farmington and Bountiful. ; His high school years were spent at Davis High where he was a member of the Davis High Chapter of the FFA. At Davis High he served the FFA proudly as chapter secretary, chapter reporter, and in 1958, he represented all young farmers as state reporter. His project while enrolled in the FFA was that of raising cattle and also numerous crops. Upon graduation from high school, Mr. Potter attended Weber State for two . ears, and then traveling to Utah State University, he graduated in agricultural education with a minor in agricultural engineering. From there, Mr. Potter studied veterinary sciences at Colorado State When Fruit Heights Mayor Lon Christensen decided to give up local politics in favor of a job overseas, he made it tough on the politicians back home. As you can see, Mr. Potter has become what he is, helping his students become. He is a young farmer who is now a leader in livestock production, along with being a valuable citizen in his community. The Clearfield Chapter is very fortunate to have in their chapter such a man, as their advisor and .friend. MEANWHILE, THE reason: city hall Christensen home. So now local residents THE proposal has been under study by the City Planning Commission and City Council for several weeks and is termed by Tom Winegar, chairman of the planning commission, as having some features which might be controversial for builders. He said it will tighten standards for building on the foothills of the eastern part of the city where sometims steep and irregular terrain make building development older.

WINEGAR added that writing of the ordinance has been difficult because some conditional usages wanted in the Hillside Ordinance conflict with present building codes. Thus, if the ordinance is i prepared along customary lines, it will demand revision of all 15 zoning ordinances already in use by the city, he said. t CITY Attorney Bruce Barton said he favors staying with the present city ordinances and making only needed revisions to adapt to the Hillside Ordinance, grb t a-- . Fruit Heights officials are negotiat- ing with the Davis County Commission to buy a piece of county property near Davis Park in Fruit Heights. Thus far the two agencies havent gotten together. Fruit Heights would like two acres northeast of the baseball diamond, but Davis County doesn't want to sell. INSTEAD, the commission would like to sell two acres on the north side of Nichols Road, west of the picnic area. in not City Councilman LaMar Green said officials knew the time would come soon when Fruit Heights would need its own city hall, but that time has arrived a little sooner than expected, grb only have to seek a new mayor, which theyll do at the Nov. 8 general election, but they have to find a new city at least on a temporary hall basis.
