Mary Ella Griffin was recognized for all the time and effort she gave to produce the city newsletter. Each person received a certificate and a dinner out. A motion was also passed appointing ap-pointing Donald Franklin Walker as City Recorder,- Dianne B. Witrusen as City Treasurer and Timothy C. Haveron as Justice Court Judge. Haveron received his oath of office on the first day of court. The Parks and Recreation Dept. asked that Cory Snyder be appointed to the recreation commission. com-mission. This motion also carried. car-ried. The public forum of the meeting meet-ing was addressed by Richard Hoffheins and Julie Gailey. They are part of the newly formed trails committee and asked for advice on the direction they should take to begin their planning. plan-ning. They are going to work with the planning commission and look over the General Plan for the city and see what trails are already on the plan. They also reiterated the need to begin now to be able to form the best use of the land for trails. Other than the personnel appointments ap-pointments there were several items on the agenda to assess the growing needs of the city. These were installation of pressurized irrigation, future storm drains and payment of large invoices. The council wanted to make sure any new developers would include the hook-ups to the pressurized pres-surized irrigation within the city. The major developments that are being built now have agreeed with the city to supply the hookups hook-ups and the passing of this ordinance ordi-nance would make it a requirement require-ment for any new developments. The city has been informed by the irrigation company that they can no longer use the irrigation ditches to handle water from other areas. The city would be required to pay for the use of the ditches and the city docs not have the funds for such. This would mean water run-off from the city streets or from developments. Keith Morey suggested assessing a storm drain fee so that the 1 biji Library Corner by Pat Bartlett There will be a delightful evening of poetry at the library tonight at 7 p.m., when Lance Larson, BYU professor and poet, will discuss poetry and how to enjoy it.

Rereading it now has been even more enriching. For those who are not familiar with it, it is the life story of Michelangelo. It took several years of research in the areas where Michelangelo lived and worked, to develop and complete this wonderful novel. The author drew from 495 personal letters written and received by Michelangelo, Michel-angelo, as well as records and contracts that were saved over the years to make it as accurate as possible. I was intrigued with the methods meth-ods Michelangelo used to plan and implement his art work. Much of his famous and still standing pieces are of a religious nature, and he spent hours reading read-ing the scriptures in order to develop the feelings and attitudes that would help him best portray the individual he was working on. Mara lee Jensen is honored by VCR1 LA Maralee Jensen, owner of 1st Home Mortgage in Spanish Fork, was recently nominated as the 1999 Mortgage Lender of the Year by members of the Utah County Mortgage Lenders' Association Asso-ciation (UCMLA). The UCMLA is an association of local mortgage lenders and affiliate members who adhere to the highest degree of professionalism profession-alism and integrity. Members of the association work together to enhance the profession and ensure en-sure that proper procedure and regulations are being practiced. The association also provides continuing education for its' members and also helps educate the public about certain mortgage lending issues and procedures. The members also get involved with any legislative issues which may affect the industry. Mrs. Jensen began working in the mortgage industry in 1985. During her career, Maralee has gained experience in virtually every aspect of mortgage lending. She has processed, originated, closed and been an FHA DU underwriter. She started her own company in 1993 and continues to enjoy the opportunity to assist people with their mortgage financing fi-nancing needs. Maralee has also been elected to serve as the President of the Mortgage Lenders' Association - i I ' : , i $ -ft.- l ; i "7 Maralee Jensen for the year 2000. She was the ethics committee chairperson in the association in 1999 and served as the program chairperson chairper-son in 1998. She also serves as a parentteacher rep for the Nebo Association of Gifted Children, is a member of the supervisory committee of a local credit union and is active in several other community organizations as well as her church. Maralee is married to Richard Jensen and they reside in Spring-ville Spring-ville with their four children. Because of his extraordinary talent, he was very popular with those in power and ended up being controlled and manipulated by whichever pope was in office at the time. Despite his passionate passion-ate love and desire to sculpt, he was often forced into doing other types of art at the whims of the pope. That was how the Sistine Chapel came to be painted. He was also forced to develop engineering engi-neering and architectural skills in order to accomplish many of his goals. Always a perfectionist, every project was his very best and consequently became treasured trea-sured works of art. Mr. Stone is very descriptive and easily brings the reader alongside Michelangelo in a manner that one can fully appreciate appre-ciate his frustrations, pain, longings long-ings and loves as his life history is described through the well written pages. The story is rich with family relationships, friendships, friend-ships, history and the reach for power. I now long to travel to his countryside and see his beautiful work that is still left for us to enjoy. AT&T How's this for a local calling area?
