Show Burn plant expensive Dear Editor: Only gullible people support the Davis County Burn Plant. The plant spends approximately $11 million yearly$ll million that could be saved to cover landfill costs instead. Essentially, the plant is not only burning trash, it is burning our money. This is especially ironic considering the promises made that the plant would cut garbage fees to virtually nothing. There is now a Davis County District official running for commissioner com-missioner who promoted and supported sup-ported this money burner without the support of any of his constituents. consti-tuents. T s action ''lustrates loyalty loy-alty to politic -J 'iiuJies versus accountably ac-countably iu citizens. We never win. Citizens, let's rid ourselves of such officials who support a burn plant that duplicates other city services, ser-vices, bums our money, and pollutes. Let's return our NARD landfill to its rightful owners. Smart citizens will gladly accept "junk" and the other supposed disadvantages of a landfill for an $11 million savings. Kenneth S.
