One hour later this very gentle and lovable dog became the latest victim of the senseless poisoning that has been going on in this so-called "peaceful community." She had not been told about the murders that have been going on for the last few months and was unaware that taking Pupster for a walk would sentence the dog to her death. Not only did she have to carry Pupster back from the hills, she came upon two men changing a tire on the car. She asked for help and they gave her none and went on with their business. She finally made to a gas Triple Crown Mistake Dear Sir: I am writing in regards to Mr. Brown's Sports Report article of July 6, 1977. Having been an avid follower follow-er of Seattle Slew since he was a yearling, I was overwhelmed by the gross mistake Mr. Brown made when writing about the great Slew. Anyone who follows horse-racing horse-racing is aware that the Preakness is the middle event of the triple crown, not the last as Mr. Brown stated in his article. The Belmont is the last event of the triple crown and is a true test of a Apology My sincere apologies to Mr. Lamb and those other knowledgeable sports fans who detected my most grave rerror in reDortine that the Preakness was the last leg of , - ifiv, si unit, rxo niitu uj Fowl A pet chicken belonging to Paul and Julie Staheli has been reported stolen. Park City Police Chief Garth Wilkinson said that the Stahelis had placed the chicken outside their motor home parked on Grant Avenue on July 10 to give it fresh air. They then drove off, apparently appar-ently forgetting about their fowl friend. When they returned to retrieve it, the gray bird with dayk speckles along with its blue and green ' Mt.

And if that wasn't enough.. .she had to leave her purse behind to carry Pupster to town, when she returned to get her purse, it was gone. What is happening to this town? Poisoning innocent dogs, stealing purses, and insensitive morons who think changing a tire is more important than helping a woman with a dying dog. This sounds more like a Mary Hartman plot than real life, but it happened and it's going to probably happen again ...so come on people, let's stop these maniacs with a fetish for poison ! ! !

I enjoy reading any article written about horse racing in general gen-eral and Seattle Slew in particular but when the facts are misrepresented I become be-come highly upset. As a favor to a true horse admirer I wish Mr Brown would write a follow up article in the next edition of the Newspaper and present the facts in the proper order. Thank you for your cooperation. co-operation. Looking foward to seeing another article about Seattle Slew. A Park City Visitor who decided to stay around. James C.

Play cage, was gone. Wilkinson noted that a law passed in the last session of the State Legislature makes it a felony to steal poultry, punishable by up to five years in jail. The police chief remarked that someone may have picked up the bird when it was discovered sitting in its cage, apparently abandoned. He said the chicken could be returned to the police station. sta-tion. although it reportedly had been locked at 2 a.m. that same morning. On Junt 9, $413 was discovered missing from the Mt.

Regarding the latest theft, Wilkinson said, "We will be interviewing people we feel had reasonable access and we will give employes the opportunity to take polygraph poly-graph tests."

Describing the new trailer facility adjacent to Mt. Air Mall as a "temporary, temporary," Medic Mike Anderson and medical receptionist Carol Santy sat in their new home on Monday morning awaiting water and electrical hookups which were to have been provided by early afternoon. Anderson says, "We really feel good about finally getting open again. We are set up to do everything even in our temporary, temporary unit here, except x-ray and that we can get done through Holy Cross. We are expecting a double modular mobile unit," he continued, "which will be placed on this same site in 30-60 days." Anderson described the modular unit as having a large reception and waiting room, three examination rooms, one set up for minor surgery, a complete x-ray room and a lab with an additional emergency area.

Knight, who lives in Park Meadows, also reported that his truck windshield was smashed and a hatch on his boat was damaged. In another incident, the police received a report of vandalism at Cliff's Carwash at the junction of Highways 224 and 248 which occurred July 6. Wilkinson said the carwash has suffered several repeated vandalisms recently and that the latest damage was a nozzle torn from a hose. How About It ? What do you think of President Carter's decision not to fund the B-1 B-1 bomber? Patty Pongrace -1 think it's a good idea. We need to limit nuclear arms. Kruce Decker - Using only the present nuclear arsenal the U.S. could destroy the Soviet Union seven times. Why should we put billions into a weapons system which would destroy them an eighth time? Nuclear arms is passe a Mexican standoff. Economics is the real battleground. Carter made the right decision, but he should follow up by using B-l money to reduce debt and strengthen the dollar. Jerry Duke - Basically, I agree. I think these systems are too costly. They ought to choose the system which is the most cost effective. Too many diversified systems cost the taxpayers excess billions. Dave Fleisher - I think the B-l bomber is an unnecessary defense weapon and his decision to use the cruise missle should be more than enough to defend the country. The B-l bomber is also too expensive. Kenny Rees - It made me sick when I heard about it. I think it's the biggest blunder Carter's ever made. I think we're all going to regret it. I guess we'll all enjoy living in Russia. Franci Eisenberg - Great because the B-l would arrive after the war was over.

BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT HAS BEEN ASKED TO MEET CONCERNING A NUMBER OF VARIANCES FROM THE PARK CITY LAND MANAGEMENT CODE. THE VARIANCES ARE AS FOLLOWS: FOR LESTER & LINDA CALLAHAN : They purchased property described as: Lot 21 Block 9 Snyders Addition, from the information available at the County Recorders office this lot was not in separate ownership prior to April 4, 1968. A building permit has been applied for with the Zoning Administrator refusing to approve it's issuance. The Board of Adjustment has therefore been asked to reverse the decision of the Zoning Admin, and to grant a variance so that a single family dwelling can be constructed on the property. This request comes under the authority of the Board described in 10-9-12 & 10-9-II of the Utah Code annotated 1953 and also chapter XIII of the Park City Land Management Code. This request will be considered by the Board on July 19 at 7 p.m. at City Hall. AH interested persons are invited to attend. FOR DON STEVE CROSLAND: Owner of property described as: North 2 of Lot 2 and all of Lot 3, Block 31, Park City Survey. Mr. Crosland obtained a building permit some months ago to construct a single family dwelling on the prop, described above. The contractor involved in constructing the foundation framed and poured the footings and foundation walls without inspection from the City. After the City became aware of the work being done it was determined that the foundation was improperly located with regard to its front yard setback. The building permit was issued with a 10 foot setback, the foundation as now constructed has no setback and is on the property line. A stop order has been issued and the building permit revoked. The Board of Adj. is therefore being asked to reverse the decision of the Zoning Admin, in revoking the building permit and to grant a variance on the required front yard setback. This request comes under the authority of the Board described in 10-9-12 & 10-9-14 of the Utah Code annotated 1953 and also chapter XIII of the Park City Land Management Code. This request will be considered by the Board on July 19 at 8 p.m. at City Hall all interested parties are encouraged to attend. FOR BILL COLEMAN, HARRY REED, JACK SWEENEY, WALLY WRIGHT, JOHN PRINCE: Developers of a subdivision referred to as the Norfolk Extension. The property is located along platted Norfolk Ave. between 1st street and 9th street. A more exact description of the property can be obtained from either Jack Johnson or from the City Planning Office. Graphics are also av ailable for exam. Due to the somewhat severe slope of the property the developers are asking for a variance on front yard setback requirements, such that they or future owners of the property .could construct garages and or dwellings without front yard setbacks. This request comes under the authority of the Board described in 10-9-12 of the Utah Code annotated 1953 and also chapter XIII of the Park City Land Management Code. This request will be considered by the Board on July 19 at 8:30 p.m. at City Hall all interested parties are invited to attend. Notice 3 |
