The curb, gutter and sidewalk project from the north side of Center Street from Main Street to Orchard Drive will have to come out of the city coffers. THE council voted to pay for the project from the street and roads department budget and said the city will hold a public hearing to re-open the budget so the money can be re-allocated. Lynn Cultimore, city manager, said that the cost of the construction would be the same per square foot as the state project. Roy McNeil Contractors. Bountiful, sub- mitted the low bid of $74,983 for the state portion of the contract. IN OTHER business the council met with Scott Watkins manager of Camelot Mobile Home Park, and three residents of the park to reconsider whether the city should close a road on 190 East which connects the mobile home park with a subdivision on the south. Mr. Watkins told the council coun-cil that some mobile home owners and subdivision residents prefer that the park be fenced off and the road kept closed, but three women from the park presented a petition signed by 50 residents with the opposite view. Those presenting the position were Sharon Hatch, Pat Bopp and Jessie Grimmett. AFTER some discussion, the council decided to stand by their former decision and open the road based on information infor-mation from Earl Littlewood, fire chief, who said that water lines were laid out in the development of the area with the plan that lines and hydrant would come in from the south entrance to service that side of the trailer park. Other considerations in making the decision were traffic patterns. The council felt that traffic problems resulting from all traffic entering en-tering and exiting from one entrance on Highway 89 created problems and hazards. MAYOR-ELECT Robert Palmquist moved that due to request to remove the fence, public safety factors and convenience con-venience to residents who want another entrance to the park, that the fence be taken down as previously requested by the council. About 290 families are housed in Camelot Mobile Home Park. In another matter the council coun-cil decided to hold a meeting with the planning commission, commis-sion, the city council and a citizens' committee before giving approval for a residential development on 1100 North, west of Redwood Road. ART Gregerson, developer, had said the development area was in both Woods Cross and North Salt Lake, but that approval from Woods Cross was contingent on approval from the North Salt Lake City Council. The area is presently zoned M l and zoning would have to be changed to allow the development. The council said the meeting will be scheduled sometime in January. IN OTHER matters Mayor-elect Mayor-elect Palmquist reported that he had contracted the AMC. Highway 89-91, to see if that business was favorable to annexation an-nexation to North Salt Lake. Mr. Palmquist said that the company had replied saying that another partner needed to be contacted before the company made a decision on annexation. According to Mayor-elect Palmquist the Red Flame Restaurant, located just north of the dealership on Highway 89-91 indicated they will annex an-nex to either North Salt Lake or Bountiful, depending on which way AMC Jeep decides to go. IN additional business the city approved the expenditure of $5,600 to purchase a vehicle for the police department and approved the expenditure of $100 from the general fund for a Christmas party for city employees. |
