The City Plann- ing Commission Thursday structed planning staffers to proceed with several changes in the ordinance dealing with operating preschools and day care centers as home occupations. While the recommended changes would make the new ordinance less restrictive than at present, the revisions fall short of the suggestions advocated at the boards meeting two weeks earlier. At that time, three women who either operate a facility or wish to, urged planners to increase the limit of six children in a home occupation preschool. One advocate suggested raising the total to 12; another felt the number should be determined by the size of the home, thus allowing in- 20-2- But the commission expressed fears that being too permissive would have detrimental impacts on neighborhoods, as well as potentially reducing the quality of child care. As a result, the commission instructed planning staffer Ron Sawdey to revise the ordinance to permit a hometwo occupation sessions daipreschool to have ly. The sessions may not exceed four hours, may not overlap and may involve only six children. One concession the commission recommended in this regard was to no longer include children of the preschool operator as part of the total.

The meeting represents a departure from the regular Fri- day morning meeting schedule. Because of the importance of the study, COG executive secretary Edwin E.

Said Mrs. Fisher: Economics shouldnt be considered. The quality of care for the kids is what we should address . . you cant do justice to more than six children. Commission chairman Keith Sorensen concurred, but saw the impact on the neighborhood as a more important concern than assuring the quality of the care. Quality care is a responsibility of the state and county, the chairman remarked. Its a home occupation. Its ( the business) clearly incidental to living there, Sorensen said. If the objective is to make (lots of) money, get some land and start a business. Its just like a gas station. You dont start with two gas cans in your driveway, he added.

Prior to receiving the sales tax figure, Sanderson had spoken hesitantly about how much revenue the fcity could expect, reflecting the uncertainty caused by the current weakened state of the economy. People have to buy necessities, but a lot of buying is based on what people want. If they have that little bit of extra money, theyll spend it; if they dont, they wont, he said Monday. Even with the third quarter shortfall, the citys sales tax total for the first nine months of the fiscal year is about $160,000 more than projected (approximate receipts, $2.62 million; projected, $2.45 million). Commission Extends Studded Tire Cutoff SALT LAKE. The deadline for removal of studded snow tires from vehicles in Utah has been permanently extended to April 15 (from March 31) by the Utah Transportation Commission. Until now, tires with tungsten carbide studs have been allowed on Utah roads between Oct. 15 and March 31. Studies show that studded snow tires wear down roads more quickly than conventional tires, so time limits were placed on their use. Because the increased popularitires has lessened ty of the wear and tear on Utah roads due to studded tires, the commission will recommend that the State Legislature consider lifting the ban altogether. er No monthly fee to own, no charge to use your First Security Banking Card. love the convenience of this card works like a check.
