The wealthy young widow cajaeled, "AM ANSWERING YOUR AD STOP MEET ALL REQUIREMENTS RE-QUIREMENTS STOP AM LEAVING IMMEDIATELY STOP NEXT STOP WILL BE YOURS STOP STOP LOVE RHODA" Mrs. Ruter arrived in Park City within hours of the telegram. After meeting Steakhouse's friends both of them were in town at the time) Mrs. Ruter was exposed to the charm and wit for which Jamie has become so anonymous.

Asked if he would recommend recom-mend classified advertising to everyone, Steakhouse replied. re-plied. "Yes, but I didn't do nearly as well with my escort service ad." Plans for design and development controls along with a financial report on the proposed Deer ValleyLake Flat resort were presented to Planning Commission and City Council members at a special meeting held last Wednesday night. Controls Citing the "natural, unspoiled un-spoiled environment of the Deer ValleyLake Flat area, "architect Ted Warr said there is "a firm committment commit-tment to the proper planning and management of this exceptional ex-ceptional area." When implementing a community-wide master plan, the object is usually to set a "general strategy" rather than "a finite end result." Warr explained. He said the early phases of the resort development could be built by the master developer and be used to "set the tone for the entire development." Royal Street Land Company Com-pany President Warren King said, "We will not have one single style, the project is too big for that." He noted that the Planning Commission will have the opportunity to review each separate project when approvals are applied for. King said general guidelines guide-lines for development will be established and thai architectural archi-tectural committees for each individual project will also be used. It is important for Royal Street to insure that all Clown Bay 977 Photo: Shutterbug McDuck ' ' o Having a special affair Let us be your hosts a NO TEL JLj M 0TEL "WHERE DISCRETION IS THE BETTER PART OF BUSINESS Our register is filled with thousands of satisfied customers named Smith and Jones.

King said "or we lose the ball game," Finance In presenting the financial report, the Royal Street Land Company president observed. "The financing of a project of this magnitude is very complex." It is expected that several different entities will be given rights to develop various areas of the proposed resort. Warr noted that design restrictions, review boards, and land owners' associations are normally used to impose architectural controls but that legal enforcement en-forcement of design restrictions is questionable. The architecture which would be encouraged throughout the resort area would include historic examples detailed in the city's zoning ordinance and "indigenous mountain and rustic sytles utilizing wood and natural rock exteriors." "Highly industrialized or commercial appearances, excessively suburban appearances ap-pearances or materials foreign to the environment" would be discouraged, Warr said. Royal Street Land Company Com-pany president observed, "The financing of a project of this magnitude is very complex." Noting that Royal Street "very dedicated to large equity capital," King said, Royal Street plans to have half that amount in equity. He termed the one-to-one ratio "very safe" and added that five-to-one leveraging "is not at all uncommon." No matter what type of financing is formulated for the resort, Royal Street intends in-tends to regain control of the project. King said, either as a managing partner or majority stockholder. Redevelopment Is Independent of Lift and Trolley Continued from Page 1 his plans were agreeable with those w ho foresee change. Questions Planning Commission Chairman Bur-nis Bur-nis Watts opened a question and answer session after Wright's talk. Although the developers had stressed that a trolley for Main Street was not part of their proposal discussion immediately im-mediately turned to that topic. Kerry Richards asked how the trolley would operate in snow and how the needed overhead electrical lines would be installed. Wright noted that one of the most active ac-tive trolley systems exists in Toronto, Canada and that the attachment of a snowplow on the front of the cars make them reliable in snow. He said the overhead lines could be installed in-stalled when the old lamp standards are reinstalled on Main Street. Richards later expressed concern that the trolley might create an "amusement park atmosphere" in the city. Lynn Turner asked if the trolley could not be put on tires instead of tracks. She said she had heard strong opposition to trnllpiv triifkc nn Main itr:mt Wright said this would not be a problem but added that it makes the system polluting rather than non-polluting non-polluting and also detracts from the charm of the system. Regarding the entire redevelopment plan. Mayor Leon Uriarte questioned whether it might not "change the image and atmosphere" of Park City. "Is it going to fit in?" he asked. "We would hope it would be compatible with the town's image," Wright said. "That is our intention," Gary Kimball expressed strong opposition op-position to the proposed chairlift. Observing Obser-ving that the lift line would pass very-close very-close to his house, Kimball declared, "I'll fight it all the way." City CounciKvoman Eleanor Bennett said the Coalition Building restoration should be given first priority in the redevelopment plans and Cathee Soares followed by stating, "The Coalition Building doesn't have to be a ski lift to be restored." "I think your plan is beautiful. I just wish you would take it out of my backyard," Soares concluded. 11 lie mm Featuring the best omeletts this side of Poison Creek.
