Show Historic Main Street News December 4, 2003 - The Springville Herald - Page Three by Daniel Bolz The Springville Downtown Down-town Business Alliance (SD-BA) (SD-BA) presents our Mission and Vision Statement for the community at large. We thought community residents would find this information helpful as the projected plans for the re-design of Main Street from 400 S. to Center Street are reviewed. The Design Committee, chaired by Tony Pickering and co-chaired by David Christopher, has 14 people on the committee. Their first project is to layout the major re-design of the Historic Main Street corridor from 400 South to 100 North. Professional design work will be done by architect Eric Lyman. UDOT is scheduled to resurface re-surface all of Springville's Main Street during the summer sum-mer of 2004. SDBA is working work-ing to incorporate design elements for the Historic Main Street corridor so that all work can be done within their planned dates. "It's a big project to undertake, public input and city approval approv-al will be needed, but we know we can do it," said Jeff Mills, SDBA president. The SDBA is a private organization made up of business owners and citizens who support the above mentioned men-tioned objectives. Once decisions are made by the SDBA, they are formally presented to the Springville City Council, mayor and city managers and the community for endorsement and support. Citizen comments regarding regard-ing the proposed Main Street plan can be directed to: Jeff Mills, 368-4120; Tony Pickering, Picke-ring, 489-7086; David Christopher, Chris-topher, 489-4254; or Daniel Bolz, 465-3000.

According to Mike Peterson, Peter-son, owner of Peterson Oil and the ChevronMcDonalds, Jaworowicz came into the facility about 6 p.m. Thursday Thurs-day with a gun to his head and ordered everyone out of the store. "He just stayed in the store," said Peterson. "From the time the police arrived until it ended in the early morning Friday, I was very impressed with the professionalism profes-sionalism of the officers and SWAT team. They did everything ev-erything they could to get the man out alive. They could have gone right in and gotten it over with, but that might have caused someone to get hurt. I was very impressed with the patience of Springville Spring-ville Police Chief Scott Fin-layson." a a$aeqJji' lgEat J : - OtUerSiml vy,,-. mm ;:: dm Wpw, m -"'"a ! tmtrif 1 1 iiTifiitiffli J fiiniriiii nit f ..mm,.. t y T T 1 1 1 ftf f f f TTf T j TOOUvb T Q i p yj-p " Reynolds buxs W-OtfTI ' tj yi jywYBiOCt f I Q D CL ! fj nf) XOStmlb O -'"mm .' mm""--C3 200 Smi . , 4fe ftfeL Mt Q i EfSGHOc:RYaocK i jj -j Q"6 jCK goBB wJrjlrP o ooo 400 south ftijiiitftiiiLffil, 1 fii tTajaiOffic" ?' 400 s"'1' Well problem, Christmas trees interest council Shown here is a drawing of the proposed redoing of Springville's Historic Main Street area including angle parking and plantings in the center of the road.

Hard, conglomerate type strata at the 270 foot level of the new Canyon Drive Well has caused the council to formulate new plans to go back to drilling a test well to determine the depth of the hard strata and if indeed there is water at the proposed 600 foot level as geologists seem to think. In the meantime the council coun-cil decided to clean out and refurbish the 200 North well to see if the flow of 1000 gallons per minute can be increased to more gallons of water per minute. Cleaning up the present well also includes television type examination to the bottom of the well to determine deter-mine what the real condition of the well is. Costs involved for drilling the test well were set at about $45,000 and cleaning up the present well were set at about $250,000 which includes new, larger pipes, new pumps and motors and the physical cleaning out of the well. Should the conglomerate prove to be too deep the hired engineers with whom the city is working suggests that a new well be drilled near the 900 South well near the swimming pool which is the best well the has. The major concern of the council is trying to make sure that the city's water supply is adequate for the coming summer months should the drought continue. Christmas trees Mr. and Mrs. Dale Robertson Rob-ertson met with the council during the comment period of the meeting to discuss the Christmas tree sale problem. Council told the Robertsons that they need to conform to the ordinances governing Christmas tree sales and that they need to come to the council in the manner prescribed pre-scribed by Utah law. Council also suggested they pursue a commercial Villa theatre 254 south main, springville All Thursday evening performances and Saturday December 20th matinee Only $5.00 each person with this coupon December 4th-December 22nd $1.00 off with this coupon for all other performances Only one coupon per group needed!

Wind power City Electric Power Director Di-rector Cal Baxter met with the council to recommend that they purchase some 4 megawatts of wind power which will be available next month for about 5.5 cents delivered to the city. The power is being generated gener-ated about nine miles east of Evanston, Wyoming, in a large new wind power farm which has recently been constructed. The price of the power would be guaranteed for 25 years and would only have to be paid for if the power is available, that is to say if the wind is blowing in that area. The power would also satisfy a new federal power requirement that anyone involved in power generation and sales needs to have a federal specified amount of "renewable" power sources and that hydro power does not qualify as "renewable". Baxter also said that the Utah Association of Munici pal Power Systems (UAMPS) would act as the broker for the power. Council said they would take the matter under a two week advisement period to allow "staff" to look over the matter and make a firm decision at the next council meeting scheduled for December De-cember 16. Baxter also made dear that if the city purchases the power it was on the terms that the city would only have to pay for the power it gets and not on the basis of "take or pay" as is the case in purchasing power from coal fired producers who run their generators 24 hours a day. New development The council gave preliminary prelimi-nary approval for 150 plus lot development on the north side of Hobble Creek west of the railroad tracks and 400 West near the Whitehead Utility Center and the proposed pro-posed public works center. The development will include a trail area along the creek and a grassed in water settling basin on the west end. The developers will also maintain the present levee which exists in the area.
