Nancy Hobgood I don't know a lot about each official but I wonder if they are concerned enough about retaining Park City's small mining town character rather than letting it grow into just another boom ski town. Keith Vanderhout I don't know if I do or not because I don't know enough about them. My major concern is solving the city's parking problems and getting the traffic off Park Avenue. Peter Caravella I've lost faith in all politicians. Cary Winther I think that businesses and realtors control government here. It's the power of free enterprise, not the residents, that governs Park City. Bea Kummer Some of them, sometimes. The thing I object to is the tearing down of historical sections of town to make way for the new, as is being done with the Cozy. Fran Johnson No. I don't think the town should finance private enterprise developments such as the Deer Valley ski resort.

Woodside Impact Editor: The Woodside Ave. homeowners committee respectfully submits the following request. We have learned that the once rejected rejec-ted "Norfolk Project" has been revised and is applying for approval as the "Quittin Time Subdivision". Due to the irreversible impact this development would have on the lives of Woodside Ave. residents and all of Park City, we would like a copy of all plans and information which will be evaluated by the city, so that we may also evaluate it and present our findings to the city. We request that this be allowed not because the Planning Commission is not thorough, but because information provided by proponents of development usually highlights only the positive aspects of the plan. We additionally request that one month be allotted for the Woodside Committee to evaluate all information to insure that a thorough evaluation is made, after which a public hearing be held to insure that all vital information is presented. We suggest that a number of concerns be evaluated by the city, regardless of whether or not the developer claims that no problem exists. The city is truly concerned about its liability and the potential for lawsuits, it should should check the lawsuits currently pending in California where homes in city-approved developments have been destroyed by natural forces. The city will Children find that once approval is given, responsibility lies with the City, and not the . developer. In addition, the cost to the city for maintaining main-taining improvements at such an extreme location should be evaluated in light of the projects direct benefits to the city. The areas of concern are: 1. geological hazard, landslide land-slide avalanche potential. 2. surface drainage problems, i.e. runoff control to protect homes below Norfolk Nor-folk , 3. fire safety access, water pressure, road width 4. traffic impact cars generated onto Norfolk and other existing streets 5. garbage collection road width, grade 6. snow plowing road and shoulder width 7. slippage of retention walls 8. shifting and breakage of underground utilities 9. will tax revenues cover the costs of providing city services to this area i.e. street plowing, cleaning and repair, water service and repair, animal control, police protection, traffic and parking control, street lighting, erosion control. 10. compatability with Park Citys existing Master Plan ALL ZONING MUST CONFORM. 11. compliance with state land use act 12. visual compatibility with historic area. Respectfully, Woodside Ave. Homeowners Committee 's Safety Ignored By City To The Editor: ' " We are writing to express " our concern over the city's apparent lack of interest in the safety of its children. On Monday, March 5, a community com-munity meeting was held at Marsac Elementary School to discuss school safety, more particularly the safety of students traveling to and from Marsac Elementary and Carl Winters Middle Schools. Both Mayor Green and the City Council were invited to attend and, indeed, in-deed, Mayor Green had indicated in-dicated on several occasions their willingness to do so. Point of fact, the meeting had been postponed only the week before so as to accommodate ac-commodate the official's busy schedules. The gesture, however, proved to be a futile one as both the Mayor and City Council failed to appear as promised the night of the scheduled meeting. No attempt was made to inform the meeting's organizers of the apparent change in plans or to explain the conspicuous absence of the city officials. I find it hard to believe that the Mayor's schedule is any busier or the City Council's time any more valuable than that of the elected School Board members and More Letters On Page 12 coflcerned sadmifu&tr aUir.si who did attend. One notable exception to this seeming apathy was Police Chief Mike Crowley, who not only shared his own concerns over the growing nroblems of school safety, buflistened as over 20 concerned parents shared their own thoughts on the issue. One can only hope that the Mayor and City Council will recognize the need for more clearly defined crosswalks, more clearly posted school and crossing signs, and improved im-proved speed controls before it is too late and once having addressed the problems will take immediate im-mediate action to correct them. If the meeting on school safety is any indication, in-dication, however, the hope may prove a futile one. Maureen Traeger V.P. Marsac Community Council Holly Connors V.P. PTSA marsac Elem.
