' One councilman noted, however, that many of the cities are "going overboard" in charging for annexation. Council discussed policies ranging from levying a charge on all properties, to exercising discretion in each individual case presented. No final action was taken on the proposition, however, and the city attorney was instructed to draw up city policy for review by all future persons seeking annexation. Council adopted Ordinance No. 4-76 changing an area now zoned RA-1, residential agricultural zone, lying east of 800 East Street and bounded by ' 1000 South Street on the south,, the present Springville City boundary line on the east, and 900 South Street on the north; and also including the parcel of land owned by. Carol F. Brailsford and the parcel of land owned by Dale E. Brailsford fronting on the north side of the 900 South Street. The change was made to R-2 residential zone which permits the use of land for two-family dwellings among other uses. A decision of whether to install alight meter and coin box on the tennis courts was delayed until further study. Council noted that some persons monopolize the courts at night and felt that if a charge was made for the lights, possibly the action would discourage some from using the courts for extended hours, thereby allowing others to have a turn on the courts. The final plat of the Kolob subdivision was approved subject to stipulated provisions as outlined by the council.
