Show Page 2 Wednesday, April 21, 1976 an NetospdpeR Talk UNPROTECTED AND UNBRIDLED The Park City Council's decision on the Brent Gold appeal serves, once again, to underscore the urgent need for the "emerging" master plan to emerge. , Sentenced to limbo by the absence of concrete guidelines, the planning commission is forced to base their decisions on a broad, generalized delegation of authority. Their powers are subject to interpretation and their rulings are vulnerable to challenge. The commission members are damned if they do and damned if they don't. When faced with a proposal it feels is not in the best interests of the community collective conscience dictates denial but the body often has no ordinance to point to, no law to back them and, conversely, no rules to bind them. They roam an expansive territory unprotected and unbridled. Given such a nebulous set of parameters, , charges of arbitrariness are almost invited. Were they masochists, the commission members would be in heaven. Each time they refuse a request they beg verbal abuse and possible legal hassles. That the council altered the commission's com-mission's decision on Gold's project 1 is unfortunate. un-fortunate. Each of these governemtal bodies requires the support of the other to operate efficiently ef-ficiently and with confidence. But the fog generated by the submerged master plan necessitates decision by opinion rather than ordinance. In the Gold appeal, the opinion of the council majority differed from that of the commission. And both opinions differed from that of Mr. Gold. We hardily agree with Councilman Richard Martinez's declaration that if there are ordinances or-dinances we need which are not on the books, we better get them there. .

KentQundKton Valerie Kaminski Patty Hearst Council Works For Arts Center Parking Needs Businesses of the Utah ski industry will be gathering April 28 at the Salt Palace for their annual spring workshop. The current ski season saw a tremendous growth over the 1974-75 season when the industry meant just under 22 million dollars to the state. The 1975-76 season brought about 30 million dollars into the state's economy. On the agenda will be a special presentation on customer communication by noted lecturer Robert G. Simmons, an analysis of ski travel trends, presentation on Salt Lake International Airport plans, discussion of Utah Transit Authority service to the ski areas, and a general planning session for the 1976-77 ski season. All businesses related to' the ski industry are invited to attend, and are encouraged to bring as many employees as they wish. There will be a catered luncheon, and morning and afternoon coffee breaks. Registration will be at 9:30 a.m. April 28 in Suite A of the Salt Palace and a $5 registration fee will be collected. Anyone wishing further information should contact Jeri Weight at the Utah Ski Association 534-1779. The Park City Council took r acUon-Thursday -vight to 'insure that parking' requirements would not impede im-pede progress of the Kimball Fine Arts Center slated for construction in the old Eley Garage. It had been feared the project might run into problems with the city ordinance or-dinance which would require the Center" to provi'de " oft street parking within 500 ft. Councilman Jan Wilking informed the council that the city owned an acre of unused land within the 500 foot limit. Consiquently, Wilking suggested that the vacant parcel of land be made available tq the center if it was needed. Another possibility Wilking posed to the council was utilization by the Center of the parking area developed by the Main Street Special Improvement ! District in Swede Alley. Because it was unclear whether the arts project would qualify for use of the Swede Alley parking, the council voted to accept Councilman Steve Dering's mothon that "if needed, parking for the Kimball Fine Arts Center will be provided by the city subject to contractual con-tractual agreement." ' Prior to discussion on the Center. Mayor Leon Uriarte read a letter he received from Mr. William Kimball. The Honorable Leon Uriarte Mayor Park City Municipal Corporation Park City, Utah 84060 Dear Mr. Uriarte; Thank you very much for your letter of March 19th. about our Kimball Arts Center. We are most enthusiastic en-thusiastic about this as I am sure you have learned from Alan and it is indeed a vote of confidence to have the City so unanimously behind us. I assure you that we w ill do a sensitive and dignified job and we are certain that the City will always be proud of the Arts Center as I know the Arts Center will be proud of the City.
