Show City Hall to be Painted Soon; Council Changes Policy on Sub-Division Roads : " r The Springville City Hall will take on a new look in the very near future, the mayor having been authorized at the council meeting Monday night to purchase the paint with which to have the work done. Funds for the paint were included in the budget this year. For the benefit of those who are wondering what the color is to be it will be a light green as nearly as possible the shade of the Scera Theater building in Orem, according to Lloyd Ashcraft, city recorder. A resolution was passed by the councilmen concerning the building of new roads in subdivisions. sub-divisions. Previously the sub-divider sub-divider has had to bring the new roads to a gravel standard and the city surfaced them, using B and C road funds. Now the sub-divider will be required re-quired to build the road and where a new road is opened up, they will be built as a special spe-cial improvement district and financed as are other improvement improve-ment districts. This action became be-came necessary because there are so many sub-divisions being be-ing made that money derived from B and C road funds, are not sufficient to surface tho new sub-division roads, councilmen coun-cilmen reported. Howard Thorpe was present at the meeting and presented a preliminary plat of a road dedication between Center Stand St-and Third South, east of Canyon Can-yon Ave., which is to come under un-der the new resolution adopted by the council. Traffic Ordinance It was decided at the council coun-cil meeting to add new sections to City Traffic Ordinance No. 57, which is not sufficient to regulate racing with cars and parking problems which have recently come up in the city, with ordinance to be published in next week's Herald. Further discussion of the wage increase for city employees employ-ees was held at the council meeting and a number of adjustments ad-justments were made. It was decided to increase the hourly wage five cents per hour and salaries $10 per month. It is estimated that the city has approximately ap-proximately 35 full time employees. |
