Tom Sullivan, Chief Drunk Drivers Editor: To Whom It May Concern is how I would like to start my letter, but that seems as if it may be a waste of words, because, obviously, there are not enough people who look at drunk driving as a definite ."no-no." Ten months ago, it was a 15-year-old girl's life that was taken because of two things: one is the bottle and the second is selfishness. This month it was a restaurant. There is no comparison as to which one I , ! get by mail?

Circulating a letter calling for signatures endorsing self-government for the area, Koleman cites the conflict con-flict of Snyderville's "beautiful, lazy farm existence" with "promoters' dreams of uncontrolled growth" as his chief concern. "I realize that I am facing two obstacles," said Koleman, "complacency and the fact that I'm naive about how to go about this. The basic idea is to in vestigate the possibility of incorporating." "Canyon Rim brought this all to mind," he explained. "We've already let people scalp Park West. The developers are gone and now we sit and look at the mud hill," he added. Calling himself a commit- tee of one, Koleman said he has received both positive and negative responses to his letter. "The county has been en- couraging, saying 'yes, grass roots is the best form of government," he commented. 1 "Several people have J refused to help," Koleman I revealed, "but they are I basically people who don't care about beauty if the i financial rewards are there." "Some developers are already at work planting the I seeds of opposition," he ad-I ad-I ded. According to Koleman, I some negative feedback I focuses on the possible rise ' in taxes to provide police, y fire and garbage services. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT UTAH'S DECISION TO HAVE FEDERAL FUNDS FUN-DS FOR WELFARE ABORTIONS WITHDRAWN ? Lindsay Dodson It's entirely unfair and illogical for women to be deprived of needed abortions because they're poor. Is it going to save money for the government or make the world a better place by raising more children on welfare? Sharon Nelson I think it's so bizarre that it could only be considered in a state like Utah. Women are going to find themselves in a situation of needing help and it's not going to be available. What could be worse!? Walter Raeline Sirstins I think abortion's a sin. I don't condone it except under extenuating circumstances cir-cumstances where the mother's life is in danger. Even in rape cases a good home can be found for the baby. For both legitimate and illegitimate unwanted births, there are always plenty of people who do want the children. I believe we were all put here for a purpose. Tari Johnson I think it's a good thing that the funds were withdrawn. The government should not have to pay for an individual's abortion. If you're dumb enought to get pregnant, you should pay for it yourself! Debbie Foss-Nielson The fact that the money for welfare abortion has been withdrawn will make it impossible for women on welfare to have abortions and will thus create a lot of unwanted children. The money situation will eventually come back on the taxpayers and they will have to assume financial and moral responsibility for the unwanted children. This could eventually lead to prohibiting abortions altogether in the state of Utah and restricting the freedom of choice. Etna Weston I don't think we should pay taxes to pay for abortions. I don't believe in abortions, but if the mother's life is in danger and she needs an abortion, the family will usually help. To me,, an abortion is taking alife-to me it's murder. I don't believe the federal government should subsidize sub-sidize murder! prove to yourselves? Well, if so, why don't you go out on the old Heber road and kill yourself or start a fire, but , do it where there are no people at all that will be involved. in-volved. Kelly Morris "If taxes go up, they feel farm taxes will go up. But if developers have their way," said Koleman, "there will be no farms." Koleman feels Snyderville residents should have the opportunity to decide community com-munity matters. He cites highway problems as an example. "We live on a deadly highway but the state will do nothing," protested Koleman. "If this were our own town, we could set limits. A lot of people ride horses. We could discuss the possibility of bridle paths," he suggested. Koleman has tentatively planned a town meeting November 10 at his Snyderville Snyder-ville residence. At this time he hopes to form a committee commit-tee to discuss what incorporation incor-poration involves, to establish the geographic limits for a tax base, to get community feedback and to solicit help. Prospector Parklll Approved Phase III of the Prospector Prospec-tor Park subdivision received final approval from the Park City Council Thursday Thur-sday night. Engineer Jack Johnson said the 166-lot development develop-ment is expected to be completed com-pleted late next summer. Phase III received final Planning Commission approval ap-proval on Sept. 28 with the stipulation that landscaping of the subdivision's buffer strip and a 5-acre park be completed before Phase II of the subdivision is approved.

NEW ZONE The City Council of Park City has been asked to meet to consider an amendment to the Land Management Code. The amendment would be to incorporate a Rl zoning designation.
