Pells will be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. . with voting by separate ballot for each issue. Polling places have been consolidated consoli-dated for the election and can be found ; elsewhere in this newspaper; , J I : t If approved, the $30 million bond will be used to construct two junior high schools one in the Alpine-Highland area and one in the north Orem -Lindon area - and to meet other building needs. . . . Funds from the voted leeway would be used to maintain and operate the proposed schools.. : : ; v.i-.; iV.-V--" District officials said both are needed because they do not have funds to operate the schools without the leeway or to construct the facilities without the bond. Dr. Steven Baugh, district supsrinten. "dent, said if the voted leeway is approved, the district would qualify for approximately .' $800,000 in funding this school year. " He said the elevMon needs to be held . before May 2 or May 3 in order to qualify for the local portion of the state funds this fall. If they waited until the general election in : November, it would mean waiting until the , next year for the additional funds. . V ' Officials have Said approval of both is sues would mean, about a $35 increase in ; property taxes for owners of a $75,000 home , - $15 for the bond ahd $20 for the leeway. Baugh said earliir needs in the district . from grades kmderpurten through 12 have grown as the district as gone eight to 10 years with limited construction due to the legislature cutting critical building needs. - The district has continued to grow, how ever, and with 40,000 students, half of the elementary schools are on productivity models, three of the Junior high schools are on productivity, and there is a measure of productivity in the high schools. . "We won't be out of the extended day, extended year, boundary changes, trans portation, even with an approved leeway, bond," he said. "We just dont have enough resources. He said he doesnt feel it's right to have 2,000 12-15 year old students in a school at a period of time when they are going through "so many changes in their own lives." American Fork and Canyon View Junior High Schools are nearing this enrollment. In addition, the elementary schools have needs, and the high schools have needs, he said. Baugh said district officials will also be looking at alternative ways to help ease the over-crowding in high schools.

' f-j r :i al v rs- ' - tc --"-i Mila hope to coordinate master water plans A work meeting between repre- sentatives of the Manila Culinary WaterCompanyandPleasantGrove City last week resulted in a plan to coordinate master water plans for ' the two systems. Pleasant Grove City Engineers will be asked to also do a study of the Manila water system along with that of Pleasant Grove to see where connections between the two sys-temscouldbeimplementedforemer sys-temscouldbeimplementedforemer gencies. . The groups were told that the growth in the north part of Pleasant Grove, both above and below 100 East, is continuing at a rapid rate. Hundreds of new homes have been approved for the area so far this year. It was noted that Pleasant Grove ; has not updated its water muter plan since 1975 and felt that it was important that it be done now. Ruse Schowofthe Manila Water Co. said that about one year ago they looked at their system and made some plana. ; They feel that they need to construct con-struct another water tank, one to contain two million. gallons of wa-' wa-' ter, "to service the area. They have K been upgrading their system. Russ said that they felt a need to be tied to another system in case of an emergency. They said that they believed the Pleasant Grove water system was one they should be connected with. He said they should have some interconnected lines that could be opened in an emergency. Last year they tried to extend the lines to 1100 North. Pleasant Grove's lines go to 1100 North, also. . He said that they had $204,744 in revenues last year. This is about $50,000 higher than it was four years ago and there had been no rate increase, just population growth. Russ noted that in some areas they are asking developers to extend ex-tend the sewer into their subdivisions subdivi-sions or they won't let them hook up to the water as they don't want their water wells contaminated by septic systems... Pleasant Grove's Public Works Director, Frank Mills, said that it would probably be good for Manila to put their new water tank at an elevation equal to the Battlecreek and Grovecreek Tanks and to join a line above the aqueduct and canaL Another good connecting point would be on the northwest end of town, perhaps at 1800 North. Frank said that right now Pleasant Pleas-ant Grove would have trouble going north of 1400 North. Manila Water ' Co. has already put a water line down 1800 North and can service that area easily. The proposal to the engineers wouldbe tomake a map which could over lay the other and would show which water departments can service ser-vice Which areas better. . They would ask the engineers to bring this study back to the group for further discussion. The study could show where the water line pressures adjacent to each other are nearly equal. Plans to connect the two lines for emergencies emer-gencies could be at these points. City Engineer Kent Fugal said that the Monson Water system in Pleasant Grovecould never join with Manila as it is too low in elevation. The Battlecreek System would be alright to join with. The engineers were authorized to proceed with the study. . Health forces mayor to resign Cedar Hills post Czz-'j:r "Hi ill-jta C:3 cililI.'SAA crrtitioni Tts BYU teams ranks 7th out 4 - r.
