Show 1 Thursday, August 30, 1979 5 Page 3 First Deer Valley Approval Continued From Page 1 and completion is expected within a year. During discussion on the Sunridge project, Deer Valley resident Mary Lehmer asked the commission to withhold approval until it had considered con-sidered Chapter 70 of the Uniform Building Code. Compliance with this regulation previously had been used to halt City Council aproval of two other subdivisions. Bruce Erickson, of the J.J. Johnson engineering firm, told Mrs. Lehmer and the commission that Chapter 70, which relates to grading and excavation, ex-cavation, applies to building permits, not planning approval. "Why didn't you say something at the City Council meeting?' Mrs. Lehmer asked. "Because I wasn't there, I was on vacation," Erickson responded. Eriekson's position on Chapter 70 was supported by City Attorney Mike McCoy and the commission approved Ihe project. Sunnyside I'p Prior to the Sunridge approval, action ac-tion on the proposed Sunnyside Up subdivision was tabled. Mrs. Lehmer raised questions as to which zone the subdivision site lies in and after some discussion commission com-mission chairman Burnis Watts said there were "enough ambiguities to warrant further research." Lehmer contended the site lies in the estate zone while project developer Jim Doilney said the land was both estate and residential. At one point Watts asked Mrs. Lehmer to "sit down" and "not get into arguments with developers." "It won't serve our purpose," Watts admonished. Doilney told the commissioners he toured the site with former City Planner Plan-ner David Preece and it was Preece who said the zoning would permit the six lots proposed. "It meets the requirements under five different interpretations," Doilney said. Following Mrs. Lehmer's explanation ex-planation of what area is encompassed encom-passed by estate zoning and what development is permitted, Commissioner Com-missioner Roy Reynolds detailed the provisions of residential zoning within the estate zone. "You're too technical for me," Mrs. Lehmer commented. When Doilney noted that adjacent developments were approved under his interpretation of the ordinance, Commissioner Greg Lawson responded, respon-ded, "If we made a mistake on the others it doesn't mean we should do it again." After the commission decided to withhold a decision, Doilney remarked, "This is the lowest density project ever presented in Deer Valley. At some time there comes a point of responsibility on the part of the city." Cable T.V. Office Tentative approval of a cable television receiving antenna in Prospector Square drew fire from the audience. ' Helen Alvarz, who called the antenna anten-na an "abomination," said it would create an eyesore at one of the town's entrances. Mrs. Lehmer called for a public hearing on the issue. A 100-foot antenna and a 20-foot earth ear-th station were presented for approval along with a cable television office and an auto parts store. Proponents noted that the disc-shaped earth station would be shielded by trees. Responding to comments by Mrs. Lehmer and Mrs. Alvarez. Com missioner Reynolds said the antenna was comparable to other utility related equipment erected by Utah Power and Light and Mountain Bell. Conceptual approval was granted but final action will await recommendations recommen-dations from the fire and sever districts. Other Action Other action taken by the Planning Commission included: Approval of a state liquor store for lot 13B in Prospector Square. Approval of warehouses and storage garages to be build by Corn-Park Corn-Park Associates at the northeast corner cor-ner of Woodline Way and Summit Road. . Tabling of a 48-unit planned unit development south of Holiday Ranch Loop Road and east of Hwy. 224. No objections to the Parkview condominiums con-dominiums were voiced by the planners plan-ners but action was delayed until the city engineer's report is received. The project will be built in three circular clusters. Sweetwater Lift Lodge was given approval for the addition of 35 hotelapartments. -Tabling of the Park City Emporium Em-porium warehouses, storage garages, and contractor's offices until approval ap-proval is received from the fire district. Tabling of the Park Place condominiums con-dominiums at Marsac Avenue and 4th Street because it was not on the published agenda. Due to the numerous approvals pending a decision from other governmental gover-nmental bodies, the Planning Commission Com-mission voted to hold a decisionmaking decision-making session prior to its September 12 discussion session. i Miss Billies I ) v fyfoi (Licensed Preschool II SSl 1?

Those agencies using Title 10 funds, which the family clinic did, are prohibited from performing abortions or abortion counseling and the clinic only distributed prescription contraceptives to those teenagers under un-der 18 who had the written consent of their parents." According to Maxell, other objections objec-tions centered on the assumption that the clinic usurped traditional sources of family planning counseling and education, such as church or parents. "The clinic offered information which clients could use to make their own decisions; the services were not forced on anyone, but when the health board and the people present at last week's meeting voted to close the clinic they denied those people who need and want such services the opportunity op-portunity to have them," the nurse said. Confusion Confusing the situation further for. some Parkites is the family planning clinic's similarity in name to the Family Health Center, a private physician practice operated by Holy Cross Hospital and currently located on Iron Horse Drive. As a private operation not affiliated with the county coun-ty health program, the Family Health Center is unaffected by last week's decision, yet it has been inundated with calls from area residents concerned con-cerned that services have been terminated ter-minated there. The Park City Family Planning Clinic operated out of the Park City ' office of the county nursing program, located at the resort center. Services at the county clinic are offered on a sliding fee scale, based on the patient's ability to pay. Both Schap-per Schap-per and Maxell maintain that the clinic is necessary for those area residents who cannot obtain regular physician care for financial or other reasons. "The lastest vital statistics (1975) indicate that Summit County has the highest county abortion rate in the state. ...some of the highest rates for out-of-wedlock births and infant mortality mor-tality in the state.. ..and Utah as a whole is fifth in the nation in child abuse," noted Maxell, asserting that family planning services can alleviate these problems. "People seem to be reluctant to have government involvement in family planning, but why should family planning be singled out from the other areas of federally supported health services?" asked Schapper. "There is a need for family planning plan-ning services for the Park City constituency. con-stituency. There is a perceived desire for those services and there are no alternatives in the county for those services," he added. Schapper concluded: con-cluded: "If people in Park City feel strongly about the continuation of family planning services... they must become politically involved, they should appeal to the State Division of Health for alternative solutions or perhaps they should activate a citizen's group and submit requests to the city council." The loss of federal family planning funds is not the only trouble the county coun-ty nursing program of Park City faces. Schapper said the progam must vacate its resort office before ski season, and so far there are no firm alternative locations. Arts Festival For Fun And Profit Continued From Page 1 held on the first weekend in August. In past years, the festival was held later in the month and was, at times, plagued by bad weather. "The first weekend in August will probably be a permanent date," Mrs. Lewis predicted. "We had good response from the artists regarding the timing and the weather wag marvelous." mar-velous." Among the many accolades heaped upon the festival by participants, visitors and residents, cleanliness and traffic control were singled out as the two areas which improved greatly. In addition to nightly trash pickups, a cleanup crew was hired to constantly constan-tly patrol Main Street and City Park aunng the two-uay event. However, celebrants left considerable debris on Main Street Saturday night, leaving the exhibit area littered Sunday morning. mor-ning. Not estatic but nevertheless undaunted, un-daunted, Mrs. Lewis, with the help of Charlotte Mysee, manned a broom and swept the street clean at 6 a.m. Traffic congestion, bus transportation transpor-tation and parking problems have been a perennial festival pain in the neck but this year marked a turning point in these areas. "Traffic and the related problems have always been a killer," said board member Amanda Peterson, "but this year's system worked like dynamite." Mrs. Lewis added that she has received many favorable comments regarding the flow of traffic and visitor transportation from satellite parking areas. After reviewing artist comments sheets, the festival director said, "the artists were very pleased with Park City, its people and the type of crowd the festival attracted. "And just as important, Park City merchants were happy with this year's festival and locals had a ball." Although reluctant to commit to supervising next summer's festival, Mrs. Lewis said she may serve as director "under the right conditions." Roller Coasting Is Expensive In a chain reaction accident ac-cident last Friday, a road roller, stairway and car wore damaged to a total tune of $2,430. The driver of the road roller was traveling east on 10th Street when the roller engine quit; having lost control of the roller, the driver jumped off. Right on rolling, went the roller, striking a stairway at 1003 Woodside. The stairway in I urn collapsed onto a white Toyota parked nearby. Damage to the roller is estimated at $2,000; the stairway represents $250 in losses and the Toyota has $200 worth of dents. In other incidents: Two construction site burglaries were committed over the week. At Park Meadows V, 600 feet of three-quarter inch pipe and several sprinkler head fittings were stolen. Total equipment loss is estimated at $366.00. On August 20 the Snowcrest Hotel at 1500 Empire Em-pire Avenue was hit for $280.00 in tools and electric wire. Dale and Delores M. Wilson were victimized by a hit-and-run driver at the resort parking lot. The Wilson car received $700 in damages by the unidentified driver.
