Show THE& Thursday, February 1, 1979 Page 9 4 Ti r New an At The Inn At 28 years of age David V. Shamoian seems a bit young to run a premier motel but the new general manager of Park City's Holiday Inn is an old hand at the job. Shamoian has been acquainted with resort business all his life since his father worked restaurants and hotels. In his native Boston, Shamoian served as general manager of a Holiday Inn and held management positions with the Sheraton Corp.. Foresaking the harbors of Boston for the mountains of Utah, Shamoian ventured west to begin a new job in Park City for which he quickly became enthusiastic. en-thusiastic. "The Park City Holiday Inn is doing well and we anticipate an-ticipate the business to grow because Park City has good potential for becoming a number one year-round resort," says the new general manager. Shamoian says that the Holiday Inn is making preparations to help attract four-season business. Weekend get-away packages are being offered to entice Salt Lake City businessmen to locate conventions, con-ventions, seminars and training classes at the motel. Arrangements are being made to allow guests to use local golf and tennis facilities for some warm season fun. And to round out the list of facilities, a gourmet gour-met restaurant and a discotheque are being built on the Inn's second floor additions that are sure to be welcomed by Park City visitor and resident alike. wwwwiiiiiiw!iiiiim m Vicki Singer Returns To Marion David Shamoian Water Question Delays Project Sitosc pi bo ! Preliminary review of an eight-lot Thaynes Canyon subdivision was tabled at last Wednesday's Planning Commission meeting pending pend-ing investigation of its proximity to one of Park City's water supplies. The proposed Thaynes Canyon IV project to be developed by Warren King covers 2.8 residential acres across from the driving range of the Park City Golf Course on Three Kings Drive. A concern was raised by city engineer John Probasco that the southeast corner of the proposed subdivision sub-division is less than 500 feet from Theriot Spring, a main water source for Park Citv, He commented that the spring could be threatened by the placement of a sewer line through the subdivision. Snyderville Basin Sewer District Manager Bruce Decker noted that questions of the direction of drainage along Three Kings Drive and the point of connection have not yet been resolved. He added that a line extension exten-sion agreement would have to be reached before approval ap-proval could be given to the project. The Planning Commission tabled review of the subdivision sub-division pending further investigation in-vestigation of the concerns raised. Continued From Page 1 The maximum penalty for a misdemeanor in Utah is $299 or 30 days in jail. In other states, Ms. Collard said, lethal force cannot be used in a misdemeanor case. The attornev pointed out that last July Judge Larson issued the order to arrest John, adding a paragraph that the sheriff should use all available means to protect the lives and safety of the entire Singer family. In August, that paragraph was asked to be deleted by assistant Summit County attorney Terry Christiansen, who noted that the sheriff, Ron Robinson, felt he couldn't serve the warrant without violence. "That shows that there was knowledge at that time that deadly force may have to be used to serve the warrant." Ms. Collard said. "To me, that shows that there is a definite possibility of both negligence in the plan and the execution. No precautions were taken, yet they anticipated an-ticipated having to use deadly force against deadly force. And at the time of the incident neither Ron Robinson nor Lunnen (Public Safety Commissioner Com-missioner Larry Lunnen) were at the scene. 1 have suspicions that it was handled improperly. But believing it and proving it in court are two different dif-ferent things." Ms. Collard commented that she is under an ethical obligation to advise and represent Mrs. Singer and the strain and hassle may be more than she wishes to deal with in pursuing the matter. "Vicki may just want to put the whole thing to rest," said the attorney. attor-ney. "It never has been their way to go through the courts." Ms. Collard said she was called in on the case by John's brother llarald immediately alter the shooting. She said she had spoken to John two or three times before the problem became an issue because he wanted to be apprised ot his rights. She arrived at the Salt Lake City-County Jail at about the same time Vicki did and commented that the widow was completely grielstrieken and unable to see anyone until the following morning. "The next morning she was still crying, of course, but she really had it together." the attorney said. "I told her she had to keep hold of herself her-self so that the judge would be assured that she would not cause bodily harm to herself or her children." .Ms. Collard said she thought it was "ridiculous" that Mrs. Singer was separated from her children on the evening when they needed each other most, adding that she didn't "know what the judge's motives were for that." Ms. Collard said she was "very gratified" with Judge Larson's sympathetic sym-pathetic and expeditious handling of the juvenile court hearing the day after af-ter the shooting, and added that the Division of Family Services was ac commodating "I thought there was going to Do a real battle to get the kids back, but everyone was united in then' efforts to get Vicki and the children together again," Ms. Collard said Asked her personal opinion about the handling ot the entire incident. Ms. Collard answered. "Killing somebody lor that ol tense is gross and unusual punishment It was insensitively in-sensitively and cruelly handled Between Bet-ween some parties it became a situation where the law had to be satistied as a matter ol principle I don't think the law demands that it needs to have an overall spirit ot justice. The existence ol the system doesn't depend on the order of the court being carried out. especially when it means the children will have no lather and Vicki will have no husband. I think it's appalling. There are sonic situations where the law ought to say it can't deai with it and let it alone. What's so magic about the law that it needs to be so unben ding?" "Vicki is remarkable." Ms Collard continued "She has no qualms that what John did was right. Her attitude is the Lord will provide and her laith is incredibly strong. That laith also allows the children to accept what has happened. They are remarkably bright and sensitive children. They have a lot of qualities other children don't have. They have learned to work and live peacefully together. Vicki and the children will be line " P P I PI 888 u W Q, "WOK o Vg) V"' $a$jC$ f ! u f l' ill c i l l inwsbruck C - ,Xi-'t issJL it 0 All INNSBRUCK Ski Clothing n )) Selected Styles Of M 1 ANBA ! ; :f: w VZraB" ssssasi" of austria p HAPPY -ftg f o ' ,4 & .Open 8:30-8:30 at the Resort Center Feb. 2 Feb. 6 Laura Thomas John Jenkins Karl Groves Feb. 3 Melodie Johnson Charlie Walton Randy Seman Bob Bishop peb ?
