Lund had been the eye of a hurricane of controversy' spawned by his June 3 .announcement .an-nouncement that a large number of drug and liquor arrests were about to be made. Park . City Mayor Leon trairte fold the .Newspaper, When he informed me of his decision he told me he couldn't take anymore and that he thought he had been had." Lie Detector - Sulisequent to his starllinj, bii bust revelation and aftei .in absence of any followup aillon, l.nnd. on June 8, reported that three drug arrests' had been made in Sandy, Utah, which were connected with the Park City "investigation." j '. However, the arrests are a mystery to federal, state and ocal drug authorities and 'have never been confirmed. Lund then told the city council that since his appointment ap-pointment in March he had been working with three men known only to him as "John-John", "John-John", "High-Boy" and "Dave", who had presented .hemselves as undercover larcotics agents. Federal officials have disavowed any knowledge of such agents. " , With public skepticism 'mounting, Uriarte asked Lund to submit to a lie detector test. , The chief was to have taken' the test last Thursday but failed to do so. ' . . ' .. According to Uriarte, Lund said he did toot take the test because he had heard rumors that he was to be relieved of his Job that night by the city council regardless of the test's outcome. .The mayor approached Lund again last Friday, once more asking him to take the . polygraph test. It was at this time that the chief threw in the holster saying he couldn't "take anymore." "I was duped," Lund told Uriarte. The mayor commented, "Based on our limited in formation, there is no way of provkig, he was lying or whether he actually was duped."" File - As part of its investigation of the bizarre revelations, the city has sent for Lund's private file from the San Jose, Calif.' police depart ment, the chief's former employer. "We are sti" waiting on information we had requested from California over two weeks ago," Uriarte said. - The files were requested cont.onpage3 Gity Receives Sewer Expansion. Report . An engineering report received by the city last week puts the cost of an expanded Park City sewage treatment plant at 1957,000. .The estimate, supplied by John Probasco of Bush and Gudgeil, Inc., is for a plant designed to handle an average, flow of 1,500,000 , gallons a day and which would exceed I960 Utah State Standards. Lasi 'month's defeat of a $1.1 nfillion bond issue for the Snyderville Basin Sewer Improvement District plant was viewed by some observers ob-servers as a mandate for a city-only system. Although the district suffered a serious setback at the polls, efforts to revive it are underway and another bond election is a distinct possibility. k Economical If expanded as planned, the report states, the remodeled facility -would be one of the most economical plants that could be designed" and one which "is based on biological treatment process rather than an activated ac-tivated sludge system." The rtfport notes that the new1 plant . was : originally designed in 1973 at the request of the -city and the estimated cost of construction con-struction at that time was $700,000. History Before presenting the cost estimate, the report outlined recent history of Park City's sewer saga.
