DIAL-A-TIP DIAL-A-TIP is the newest program in a continuing series of activities hosted by the Springville Police Department to keep the public involved in crime prevention. In announcing DIAL-A-Tip, Police Chief Leland Bowers expressed great optimism regarding its probable impact on crime in Springville. The purpose of DIAL-A-TIP is to provide a means of communication to those persons having knowledge of crimes, but who do not wish to get involved. in-volved. By dialing the DIAL-A-TIP number, 489-9762, the caller will reach a recording machine and the information is placed on a tape. The tape will then be reviewed on a daily basis by a detective. It is widely known that many crimes are witnessed, but the witnesses are reluctant to tell anyone what they have seen. The reasons for not becoming involved are almost endless; the possibility of having to go to court, too much of a bother, fear of retaliation, etc.. DIAL-A-TIP, hopefully, will make it easy and pleasant to report crime information. in-formation. The caller needs only to dial the number, then repeat the facts into the phone. The caller's name is not wanted or needed and no questions are asked. This system has proven to be a valuable crime-solving tool in other cities and hopefully will be as successful suc-cessful in Springville -The equipment for DIAL-A-TIP was purchased by the Springville Kiwanis Club and the entire program is being sponsored by them. Through the years, our Kiwanis Club has a proven track record in crime prevention and involvement in public safety. Many dollars and man hours have been expended by them to make Springville a better and safer place to live and work. Chief Bowers is very pleased with the enthusuasm displayed by the Kiwanis club toward community involvement and wishes to' publicly commend them for their efforts. Seven reserve police officers who aid the Springville Police Department and the city in general have amassed a total of 2,651 hours of donated time during 1978.

Mapleton property owners seek city deannexation Several Mapleton property owners have filed a petition in the Fourth District Court to have approximately .73 acres of land disconnected from Mapleton City. The land lies on boundary between Springville and Mapleton, and property owners claim the topography dictates logically that it should be part of Springville City. The petition claims that Mapleton City does not provide any services to the area, has not platted the property, and has no master plan which includes future use of the property. Designated to represent the property owners are G. Lee Measom and Harold D. Mitchell. Other property owners are Karen O. Measom, Clark D. Palfreyman, Aldeen C. Palfreyman, William D. Fullmer, and Nellie H. Fullmer. A cowardly cur barks more fiercely than it bites.

December building permits take drop Springville City building permits for December were down considerably from the previous month, according to a report issued by building inspector Ted Seel. There were no new home permits issued, but additions and remodels amounted to $15,598, and permits for commercial establishments amounted to an estimated $11,300, making a total of $26,898, one of the low months for the year. Permits for additions and remodeling were issued to Wayne Taylor, 1492 E. 50 N., for $3,240; Buss Snow, 530 S. Canyon Dr., $7,700; James Tetro, 4025 S. 3500 E., $300; Kent Packard, 29 C Street, $900; and Robert L. Strong, 695 Brookside Dr., $3,458. Commercial permits were issued to American Savings & Loan, 11 E. 400 N., $7,000; Don Johnson, 405 S. Main, $2,000; H. T. Reynolds, 34 W. 200 S., $2,300. Postmaster retires Bliss R. Packard, Springville postmaster post-master since June 1959, has retired as of the end of December. A new postmaster post-master probably will be appointed within the next four months, Mr. Packard said. In the meantime, there will be an officer in charge (OIS) of the local office, most likely a supervisor detailed out of the Provo Post Office, but he will not be the postmaster, Mr. Packard explained. A familiar face at the Springville post office for 20 years, Mr. Packard began his work for the postal services on a temporary appointment December 30, 1958. He received his permanent appointment ap-pointment as postmaster on June 1, 1959, under President Dwight D. Eisenhower. During the past 20 years, changes noted at the postoffice include the addition of another rural delivery route, and the changeover from "on foot" mailmen to jeep delivery. When Report evaluates 1 978 building in Springville Building in Springville for the 1978 year amounted to an evaluated $7,105,627, according to the annual report issued this week by building inspector Ted Seel. A total of 229 permits per-mits were issued during the year. Breakdown of the permits issued is as follows: new homes, 114 permits with buildings evaluated at $5,232,746; garages and carports, 14 permits, $65,986 evaluation; alterations and additions, 69 permits, $274,824; duplex, 14 permits, $739,168; four-plex, 5 permits, per-mits, $338,897; commercial, 13 permits, $454,006. These totals show a 26 percent increase in-crease in permits issued and a 31 percent increase in total evaluation. The 229 building permits represent 1,875 required inspections which had to be performed during 1978. With 260 working days, that averages seven inspections per day. There were 142 new dwelling units started in the city in 1978. Assuming the average size for each family living in cwMM fey hch t hinds The Utah Department of Transportation Tran-sportation will have only $600,000 to spend on the Mapleton Main Street project, rather than the $1.6 million needed to complete the project, Jean R. Driggs, assistant local government projects engineer with UDOT, told city and county officials at a meeting Thursday. Mr. Driggs and Paul Gilgen, who is in charge of Federal Aid Secondary road programs, will meet with Utah County officials and road representatives of the various cities to explain the 1979 and 1980 road allocations. Mr. Driggs said there was no way he could see having any additional funds for 1980 for the project, but they could "buck hard" for 1981. The road project, which has been promoted jointly by Mapleton and Utah County, would connect Mapleton and Springville in the area of Springville High School. Mr. Driggs said Mapleton had built up credits amounting to an additional $680,000, but would be unable to use these credits towards the road because the actual funds were not available. He asked the city to consider how the $600,000 available should be used, whether it should be used to fully complete one section, or partically complete the entire road. The engineer told officials present that EPA standards and regulations pushed by environmentalists are shutting off federal funds for highway construction. He reported that any road project which would increase traffic would also increase air pollution and is therefore banned. Mr. Gilgen reviewed local projects earmarked for funding under the "Safer Off Systems" allocations. They relate to providing signs and other safety features for roads in the area. The men distributed reports prepared by UDOT transportation planning division concerning funding for Class B and C roads, allocated April 1, 1978. The allocations included: Utah County $129,419.67; Alpine City $4,113.36; American Fork $24,496.98; Cedar Fort $1,009.24; Genola $4,448.85; Goshen $1,856.04; Lehi $15,431.18; Lindon $6,076.08. Also Mapleton $7,723.38; Orem $79,326.71; Payson $16,296.87; Provo $156,309.08; Salem $4,244.67; Santaquin $4,4859.88; Spnish Fork $22,450.56; and Springville $27,399.72. Class B and C road funds come from vehicle registration fees collected by the State of Utah. These are allocated back to the counties and cities on a formula, to be used for construction, improvement, or maintenance of public roads and streets under their jurisdiction. Pair arrested here face Montana charges Flathead County, Montana, officials were in Utah Thursday to bring a man and woman to Kalispell to face charges of stealing 1,800 pounds of ivory - three mastodon tusks that the owners value at $72,000. FBI agents and police in Springville, Utah arrested Steven Rosgen, 29, and Helen Watson, 35, in mid-December on a Flathead County warrant accusing them of the theft. Authorities said at that time that the ivory had not been recovered. Springville police since then have shiped some 220 pounds of recovered evidence back to Montana, said Det. Norm Cole this week. Most of the evidence was ivory, but some tools and other items were also shipped, he said. The tusks were owned by Mr. and Mrs. Peter G. Voutis of Bigfork. Mrs. Voutis said she and her husband bought the tusks last July from Chris G. Levengood, who had displayed them for some time in his restaurant at Somers and later stored them in a basement. Mrs. Voutis said she and her husband, who owns a used-car lot in Kalispell, arranged for Rosgen to cut up the tusks and work them into jewelry and ornaments to be sold in various shops around the area, and bought $2,000 worth of machinery for the work. She said Rosgen, the tusks and the machinery disappeared over the Labor Day weekend. For toothy smiles-and potential dental problems nothing compares to a shark.

There are still only five routes, although they are extremely large ones now and need to be divided, but all delivery is made by jeep. There are also relatively the same number of workers in the post office, Mr. Packard explained. Active in civic work, Mr. Packard has served as Kiwanis Club president and worked to achieve the large house number system here. Also active in IDS Church work, he was Sunday School Superintendent for four years, bishop of the Third Ward from 1954 to 1960, on the Springville Stake High Council for nine years, and has served as stake executive secretary since 1969, one year under President Leo Crandall, five years under President Grant S. Thorn, and for the past three years under President Calvin Packard. He now is employed as custodian for the new Springville North Stake Center and plans to do considerable temple work. the new units is the same as the state average (five persons per family), that would indicate a population increase of 710 persons for the yar. This increase would be about six percent of the present population, the report shows. Building activity was much slower in the fourth quarter of the year than at any other time, with only 24 new home starts, as compared to 42 during the third quarter, Mr. Seel reports. He says the drop is a result of a combination of factors, including cold weather, drastic increase in mortgage interest rates, and the imposition of the Flood Plain Overlay Zone. "It will be very interesting to see if these situations work themselves out, or if they worsen and completely strangle the construction con-struction industry in our city," Mr. Seel said. With the amount of land available for building and the high degree of subdivision sub-division activity in this area, the outlook should be very good for home builders here, Mr. Seel added.
