Gonzales said the restaurant sold bottled water, bottled sodas, grilled hamburgers and grilled chicken sandwiches. The grill is powered by gas. "You really need to communicate, talk to all your customers," he said, adding that they understood the restaurant's predicament on Tuesday. Another restaurant in the out- age zone, Nick-N-WilWs Pizza on Bonanza Drive, opened at 11 a.m., but the workers there turned away about 25 people through noon. Dakota Burton, who works at the pizza restaurant, said Nick-N-Willys probably lost solid lunchtime business. Once power was restored, it took an hour for the pizza ovens to heat up. Burton said the restaurant, which opened last fall, might have sold additional large-sized pizzas on Tuesday if the power had not gone out. Arts Fest goes Y2-5K Continued from A-1 Baker said the size of the event sets it apart from other events on Main Street. Money raised during the weekend help fund exhibitions and community art classes, Baker said. "It's a truly cornerstone event," she said, Linder added that the Arts Festival is a vehicle to represent artists. "It's a big deal to get selected," she said. Just because an artist gets in one year doesn't mean he'll get in the next year. It gives the festival a different look every year." Jewelers and sculptors are particularly well-represented at this year's festival, Linder said. "We definitely do rely on volunteers to make the festival work," she said. "We would love to get as much help as we need. We are definitely not to our goal." Volunteers get free admission, T-shirts, lunches and good karma for helping, Linder said.

"We don't want to do a cheaper version of the project. You do it right or you don't do it," County Commissioner Bob Richer added. Completing the project will cost almost $8 million, Summit County Engineer Derrick Radke said, adding that costs for excavation and traffic control greatly exceeded the expectations. "The project is necessary," he said. "One of our options [was] put it on hold and bid it out next winter." The high cost for asphalt contributed to the budget overage, Summit County Public Works Administrator Kevin Callahan said. The county awarded the construction contract to Staker and Parson Companies June 18. Different "legs" on the new roundabout, west of the Sheldon Richins Building, will provide drivers access to the new Landmark Drive, the Wal-Mart parking lot and the bypass road to Arby's, Callahan explained. "We've got the business community on our side," he said. "Access to those businesses is already being impaired." Visitors will not travel to Park City and wait in traffic to reach the slopes, Callahan said, adding that traffic congestion at Kimball Junction is reaching critical mass. "Resorts are all in competition with each other," Callahan said. "And people are likely to remember; a bad experience." > Those leaving ski resorts in the winter experience the brunt of traffic gridlock at Kimball Junction, he said. Expanding Landmark Drive from two lanes to four will help guide more efficient traffic patterns in the Snyderville Basin, Callahan said. The contractor has about 80 days to complete the project and drivers should expect delays this summer as crews rush to pave the road by October. Expensive mountain bike stolen The $6,000 Trek was taken as a crowd milled about near a vendor in Prospector By JAY HAMBURGER Of the Record staff A thief stole an expensive mountain bike in Prospector on Friday, taking the bike, investigators said, while a large crowd milled about a vendor during an important mountain-biking conference held in Park City. Rick Ryan, a Police Department captain, said a sales representative for Trek, a high-end bicycle maker, told the authorities of the missing bike at 5 p.m. It had been in a Trek kiosk in a vendor area in a parking lot on the 1700 block of Prospector Avenue, where much of the conference activity happened. Ryan said the crowd of people visited the Trek kiosk, looked over the bicycles and left. When the people left, the representative, who is from Boise, Idaho, noticed the bicycle was missing, the captain said. "It was there and then it was gone," Ryan said. The bicycle is a Fuel EX 9.5 model. The police said the bike is worth $6,000, putting it in the upper echelon of mountain bikes and more valuable than most sold in stores. Ryan said the police through the beginning of the week had not identified a suspect. He said there were no witnesses. Investigators obtained the bicycle's serial number. Ryan said the bicycle had not been outfitted with a seat. The bike is red and black. Ryan said it is unclear whether someone planned to take the bicycle beforehand or if the thief saw an opportunity after seeing the bike. He said investigators are looking for someone with that model who does not appear to be a topflight mountain biker. "An individual that has that bike may not be the kind of individual who (normally) has something that costly," Ryan said, adding there is a better chance to catch a suspect since the model is uncommon. He said the person may have taken the bicycle to use it or sell its parts. If the parts are sold, the police might receive tips, Ryan said. "When they start selling parts - that leads to suspicion," he said. The case is believed to be the most significant involving a mountain bike since late summer 2007, when thieves twice ripped bicycles off car-roof racks as the cars were parked in lots on Park Avenue. One of the bicycles was worth $3,000. The police priced the other case at $4,000, with the person losing the bike and the rack. The Police Department this week did not immediately .provide the status of the earlier cases. Todd Henneman, who manages the bicycle shop at Jans Mountain Outfitters, a local chain of outdoors stores, said it is likely the person who took the Trek understands its value. He said some thieves search for high-end bicycles like the one taken. "They're gone and people part them out," Henneman said, noting that certain pieces of the bicycle, including the wheel set, the front fork and the drive train, are valuable. Jans carries the Trek model that was stolen, and Henneman said the stores sell about two each year. He said bicycles in the $6,000 price range are "not rare" in Park City. He said it will be difficult tofindthe bicycle, especially if the thief steals bikes regularly. Henneman suggested people secure their bicycles with cable locks, but owners should be cautious to loop cable locks around the different parts of tftfe bicycle that a thief could take.
