The words belong to Anne Prince, discussing her decision deci-sion to resign from the Park City Board of Education at the end of the year. Although Mrs. Prince has two years remaining of a four-year term, the recent changes in school district boundaries have left her without a district to represent. repre-sent.

That announcement came Tuesday from City Manager Arlene Loble at a news conference con-ference called to discuss the findings of an organizational study of city employees and elected officials. In announcing the creation of the additional positions, Loble noted that Park City is suffering growing pains comparable to those of a much larger community. She said the building activity in Park City is about half of what is taking place in all of Salt Lake County, where there are 33 planners and 24 building inspectors. The new staff increases would give Park City four planners and four building inspectors. In justifying the need for more police officers, Loble compared Park City to Aspen and Vail, both of which have much larger forces. for-ces. The three additional officers of-ficers would give Park City a total of 12. As spelled out by the city manager, the new city engineer will oversee the city's complex water system as well as carrying out routine functions, such as inspection in-spection of new subdivisions.

A former PTA president and Community Council chairman, Mrs. Prince was first elected in 1976, then re-elected two years later. "I just felt I had the time to put in for extra meetings. I thought I wanted to be involved in decision-making in the schools." Mrs. Prince said one of her major concerns four years ago was to see more discipline disci-pline in the schools. She believes there has been movement in that direction. "I've given it my all for four years," she said.
