Fees to appear before the planning '. commission were set by the council. A public hearing was set for 6:45 p.m. ! March 3, 1981 at the city building before an ordinance will be adopted making the fees final. In other council action a resolution was adopted, unanimously, setting road and utility design standards and specifications. The 1981 county fire agreement was approved and signed by the mayor and council. The treasurer's report showing receipts of $76,213.57 was accepted by the council. Council also wrestled with the size of a subdivision sub-division and will establish fees for a planned unit development application. The ordinance that will be adopted following the public hearing on March 3 will set a $25 fee for anyone appearing before the planning commission for water line extention applications and street extention applications. Most cities have similar charges for planning commission appearance. These fees will be in addition to fees already established by ordinances. The planning commission was charged with the responsibility to determine what fees should be established for a planned unit development. At the present time there are no fees established by ordinance for planned unit developments as there is for subdivisions. Planned unit developments permit multiple homes on a single tract of land, but the homes do not necessarily have to be on individual in-dividual two and one half acre lots. Homes could be grouped together with the remaining land used for parks, etc. Mapleton has one planned unit civil defense shelters throughout the city. Along with Dr. James Nance as civil defense medical instructor, John and Sue Harris, and nurses from the Medical Center, the Thorpes taught hundreds of classes in self -medical-help which went beyond first aid in case doctors were not available when disaster struck. A portable 200-bed hospital unit is stored in the basement of the junior high beneath the gymnasiums. gym-nasiums. It can . be removed and set up in the gymnasium in a matter of a few hours, Thorpe said. In addition to the beds, there is an x-ray machine and other hospital equipment, crackers to feed about 1,000 people, water, and medicine (which has since been outdated and destroyed), and two generators in case of power failure.

The junior high school seemed like the logical place to store the hospital equipment, so with the help of scouts and others, Mr. Thorpe directed the excavation of two feet underneath the gymnasiums gym-nasiums and poured concrete, which the city paid for. The area is now one of about 20 fallout shelters in the city, in addition to those in private homes.

By resolution the commission adopted road and utility design standards stan-dards and specifications. Council has the authority to set the standard for each application, but whatever standard stan-dard is set, specification must be followed to meet that standard. If the council determines that a subdivision should include sidewalks, curbing and gutter then the specifications must be followed for that design. If council determines that only a paved road needs to be provided, the specifications for this will apply. The 1981 county fire agreement was approved by the council, but not without discussion.

Herald - Page Eleven Lm L Issi L MIMDIIWIHIHOnl Outstanding debaters at Springville by Craig Conover Springville High School debate squad has done a good job this year, considering con-sidering that they are rebuilding with only four seniors on the team. But the bright spot on the squad is a three-year varsity debator, Bryon Benevento. Bryon has attended Georgetown Univeristy for the 1980-81 debate season. He leads the school in debate points with 425 and only needs 175 more points to awarded a double ruby, which is the highest honor in speech. If he achieves this, he will be the second debator ever to receive this award in Springville's history. Bryon has numerous awards not only in debate, but in speech and student congress. He has gone to state each year he has been in high school and this year should be no exception. Recently he attended Alpine Invitational In-vitational where he not only received first place in his section, but overall was the outstanding speaker and best chairman. Bryon assists Coach Merrill Carter in teaching the younger students in the theory of debate. Other outstanding members of the squad are Bent Washburn and Nathan Welch who have won one tournament and have done quite well in many others. It takes a lot of itme and sacrifice in order to debate. A lot of Saturdays are spent speaking at meets. Although the Squad is rebuilding, they cannot be counted out of any meet and should grow stronger as State comes near. Happy birthday to Steven J.
