Show Do not change Ked Jevils! Editor: Here we go again! The mighty Red Devil name and mascot are being challenged by those who think too much about the devil. I say, teach your children responsibility, respect, duty, fair play, honesty, etc., at home. Don't be. constantly blaming something else for their actions. Who is asking about our logo and mascot? Who dares to make fun of Springville? Quit comparing compar-ing us to other places, towns, schools, etc. People are moving here in droves, whether wanted or not, and if they or their children question our goodness or patriotism, patrio-tism, they, need to know about people like my two brothers who both went to- Vietnam and, thank God, came back whole. They need to know about the Snyder boy who didn't come back at all and many' txhers. They need to know about Mr. Anderson and Mr. Hjorth who marched in the "Death March" and were held captive for : years as prisoners of war. All of them were very patriotic and all supporters of Springville High School and the Red Devils, i There is A vast difference in calling yourself a SPRINGVILLE RED DEVIL or just a devil. You insult and belittle the thousands of Red Devils who have graduated graduat-ed from SHS or who are now attending . when you say we do not know what the meaning of goodness is in our community. Good things about Springville: the Art Museum, the Springville Playhouse, Parks and Recreation, the Musettes, Art City Days, The World Folkfest, Volunteer Firemen, Fire-men, the SAVERS, the golf course, beautiful tree-lined streets, statues in the town, the list goes on. Most of these things were started or continue because of SPRINGVILLE RED DEVILS of one year or another! I agreed with those who say we should vote on this issue. . .and then forget it forever. Kaye J. Wiley Springville October 24, 2001 - The Springville Herald - Page Three Het's restore downtown area Parents need to understand policies Editor: As a teacher at Springville High School who helped develop the attendance program, and who often helps in the office regarding attendance issues, I was concerned con-cerned about the letter from L.K. Garcia criticizing our policies and our attitudes. There is no student with the last name of Garcia, nor any parent contact with that name, in our attendance files. This could explain one of two things. Either the parent who wrote the letter is facing difficulties in excusing hisher child because of a computer com-puter problem, which shehe should contact the office to clear up, or the parent did not sign hisher real name to the letter-to-the-editor. If the. latter is the cause, it is no wonder that such a person's credibility may some times come into question. Also, the1 school is legally responsible for each registered child during the school hours. This is a situation called "in loco parentis "-in the place of parents. Under our public school system, -parents tub their children over to the schools during school hours and trust that the schools will watch them and care for them. If the school does not know the whereabouts of the child during those hours, the school cannot legally or morally simply assume that the parent does. There must be clear communications communi-cations between the parent and the school at all times to insure the safety of the student. If the school questions a parent about a student's whereabouts during school time,'t it is done in the interest of the child. Coun m m ew waste al place Members of the Springville ' City Council heard a proposal at last week's meeting for a new waste collection facility at 2450 W. 400 South. A private company compa-ny wants to build a new building ' at the site of the present transfer station which would be used specifically to collect debris from construction and demolition . projects. Mike Dunn, representing Cedar Valley C&D Landfill, said that they would collect construction construc-tion debris, wood and concrete. He indicated that Springville' residents would also be able to use this dump for like material. At this time the only landfill accepting construction debris is located in Payson, but it is getting get-ting full and is turning trucks away. . Dunn said that their facility would be, "a temporary collection collec-tion point." Trucks would then, transport the waste to a permanent perma-nent site in Fairfield. His company compa-ny liked the site because it is so close to the freeway and they could get on and transport to Lehi and get off enroute to Fairfield. Fair-field. . He estimated that they would be hauling four trucks full of debris from the site per day. They would be hauling concrete, asphalt, debris from home construction con-struction and demolition, sheet-rock sheet-rock and roofing waste. The council was concerned about the added traffic in that area as so many businesses were planned and being built there.' The property surrounding the present transfer station is zoned for future commercial use in the : city's general plan according to staff. Because of the growth of I business in that area, Mayor Fritz Boyer was concerned about possibly possi-bly having to move the transfer station to another location in the future. Councilman Jay Knight was concerned about asbestos contamination. contam-ination. Dunn indicated that the site would not store asbestos. Councilman Craig Conover said die city is in need of a place for citizens to dump such waste. "If we don't have a place for them, residents will find remote places in the area and dump illegally. "We are trying to address this problem. Keep the trash off the . road and from blowing all over. People dump in ditches now," said Dunn. c r Cedar , Valley C&D have" to seek approval of the Planning Commission before it can be officially reviewed and voted on by the city council. City Administrator Admin-istrator .Lane Long' said that "whole corridor will be a major commercial piece in the city and we might want to look at other, sites. All Of these issues must be raised at a public hearing on the The attendance personnel at Springville High are extremely concerned, caring individuals. I have personally watched them being verbally abused (with language I don't consider civilized) civi-lized) by both parents and students stu-dents in our office, and have watched with amazement as they controlled their own responses. They are superb workers. Unfortunately, it appears that some people still do not understand under-stand the policies and the legal ramifications of them. If school patrons have questions, our office personnel will be happy to answer an-swer them. Perhaps then parents will understand why "the attendance atten-dance person" is so thorough in doing her job. - Thank you.

Nicolas Boileau permit," he said.r " Dunn felt that this proposal can be done in a commercial zone and kept to look nice. : The council felt that the facility facili-ty would provide a much-needed collection site for annual city cleanups and residential projects. People now have to travel to Payson to get rid of construction waste. Editor: As buildings become restored and authentic finishes applied, our beautiful downtown will evolve into a destination point for a turn-of-the-century look. We would encourage all business owners in Springville to do all they can to further this authentic look. Perhaps paint now, re-facade re-facade tomorrow and brick sidewalks side-walks and planters and benches and old style lamp posts the day after. The important thing is to do what we all can. We also encourage lots of greenspace and foot travel-slowly increasing a pleasant environment environ-ment for shopping and dinning. How about a parking garage andor diagonal parking and a center lane parking strip on Main Street. And last, but not least, we would like to plant a restoration seed and see all of the old buildings build-ings in our downtown restored. The Reynolds Building and Central Bank were both built in 1892 as sister buildings using the same materials and architectural style-only Central Bank was even more glorious with its traditional tradi-tional diagonal bank entrance and tin turret. It would take a lot of work and money for restoration, but it could be done. ' Before too much longer, the south side of our building, the Reynolds Building, will match Republican Women An update on Congress, voting vot-ing and redistricting will be the topics discussed on Oct. 29 when Republican Women meet one week early at the new Provo Library, 2nd floor, at noon.
