The three other bids given were $160,000 and $304,000 for the same work. The council also discussed dis-cussed allowing people to build solar facilities for generating electricity and then work with the city to put the power they make , into the city power system and sell the power to the city. The power sold to the city would then come off their power bill in that solar power can not be generated in the dark so at these times the people would have to purchase power from the city. One person has placed a solar system in his back yard, and so far the solar power about equals the power the person is generating. gener-ating. After the discussion, the council passed a resolution resolu-tion stating the policies of the city concerning these types of operations,. In other business, Troy Fitzgerald was re-appointed as the city administrator. administra-tor. The council approved a bid award and contract, along with Spanish Fork City, to rehabilitate the runway at the Springville-Spanish Springville-Spanish Fork Airport for $1.9 million. The council also opened the 2007-2008 budget to fine tune several items so that at the end of the physical year there would be no problems with over spent budgets or other problems. What are the odds? Rylie and Cheyann Beardall, daughters of Kalen and Michelle Beardall, both broke their arms on the same evening within an hour of each other. Rylie was on a house boat at Lake Powell when her accident happened, and Cheyann was at her grandparents home in Springville trying to play Tarzan, or is it Jane, in the old apple tree. The two won't be doing much swimming this summer.
