MLS Multiple Listing Sen KFA1 TOR Park City Council hires new dog consultant Don't be caught unprepared 7J 2U JUDY M. KIMBALL HANLEY Agent No. 202 Silver King Bank Bldg. Park City, Utah 84060 Bus. 649-8656, Res. 649-7607 AUTO FIRE LIFE COMMERCIAL Now Appearing. . . ! I i fA j 111 iSieSr: Spruce Newton & the Needles at the Plowboy Bar (Tonight Only) When in doubt, go to the experts. That's been the philosophy of the City Council over the past several years. During that time it has hired a number of consultants to research and suggest answers an-swers to a multitude of Park City's problems. Experts have been called in to look at the city's water system, park land, annexation policy, Land Management Code and architectural guidelines. But until Monday, one of Park City's most pressing problems was allowed to go uncurbed dogs. You see them everywhere, and in a resort town that must be careful to protect its image, it can be quite a problem. When they aren't at the resorts snatching food off people's plates, they're sleeping on the sidewalks in front of bars, the odor of alcohol heavy on their fur. They run in packs at night, using the cloak of darkness to hide their identity as they terrorize neighborhoods, knocking over trashcans, chasing cats and even their own tails. Residents fear that their own dogs will run off in the heat of passion to join the gangs of hedonist hounds, who pierce the air with their howls, and the snow with their hot calling cards. More than once residents have stormed the City Council Coun-cil chambers to complain that Park City has gone to the dogs. On Monday, City Manager Arlene Loble showed her usual dogged approach to the city's hairiest hair-iest problems when she announced the appointment of Mrs. Kay Nine as the new dog consultant. Nine comes to Park City from the firm of Cage Davis of Boulder, Colo. She was hired after an extensive interview where she was hounded with questions and collared on a number of important issues. Satisfied that her papers were in order and that she'd had her distemper shots, the City Council unanimously appointed ap-pointed her. While city officials are confident Nine can do the job, residents got their hackles up when they learned that yet another outside consultant has been hired. Bruce Barnacle, outspoken on many issues, complained that the city has a wealth of local talent waving their tails under the council's nose. But City Manager Loble defended the appointment, noting that the council had more experience picking dogs for consultants. Local dogs may know where all the hydrants are, she said, but that didn't necessarily give them a leg up. Applicants needed to show they could stand on their own four feet, said Loble. A number of highly trained dogs, including in-cluding a French poodle, a German Shepherd and Newfoundland, New-foundland, were passed over for the job because of obvious language barriers. Because her bark seemed much worse that her bite, said Councilmen rubbing their calves, Kay Nine was selected. Nine is a borderline collie. "I'm so excited with the job, I could do a backflip," m"msm mmi f ' ,;; ' I JfiSr ftfavWViVn'r1-'-' JSPM"1"'-'' -'iffa- ft I- First, my dear, I'll have you know I will play no favorites. We will respect all races, breeds and colors. The Labradors are no better than what are those dreary Mexican dogs called? said Nine, rolling over instead, in-stead, and thumping her tail on the floor. Raising her paw in the air, she pledged to give the city a new leash on life by rounding up strays, cleaning up the shoddy sidewalks and getting juveniles off the streets at night. "The lack of things to do for our puppies breeds con tempt and a lot of other things," sniffed Nine. "We need to muzzle their animal instincts and get rid of such lusty readings as 'A Tail of Two Cities,' and push them more toward the works of such greats as Dog Hammer-schold." Hammer-schold." Nine suggested the city might help in the fight against delinquency by enlisting en-listing a puppy corps to work with the water consultant on the leak survey, particularly around fire hydrants. She said other suggestions will be forthcoming once she has a chance to sink her teeth into the problems. City Manager Loble said the new consultant will be paid 40,000 bones for the job, plus an incentive bonus of 10 bags of Gravy Train if she can lick the problem within two months. But Loble warned Nine that other consultants have had their asphalt on the line in the past, and that the council wouldn't fall for the same old tricks. Hop on over to the Easter Egg Hunt Deer Valley Resort announces new marketing strategy The Park City pre-School's pre-School's annual fund-raising event, "The Easter Egg Hunt," will be held Saturday, Satur-day, April 10 from noon to 2 p.m. at the Prospector Square Athletic Club.

Deer Valley Resort this week announced a new marketing program for the 1982-83 ski season. In a press conference, resort officials said the new promotional campaign is aimed toward higher utilization of Deer Valley's unique facilities. Surveys conducted this winter by the marketing department have resulted in identification of the resort's customers. Studies have shown the typical Deer Valley skier earns an income of $387,000 a year, owns or has access to a Lear jet and skis 67 days per season. It is believed that 76 per cent of those customers will return to ski Deer Valley, or at least to eat at Cafe Mariposa. "So it's the skier who hasn't been here yet that we're aiming for," one official said. The new marketing approach ap-proach for Deer Valley will ride on the theme: "Experience "Ex-perience the Deer Valley Dividends." In order to attract a larger segment of the skiing population, popu-lation, the resort will maintain main-tain it's $20 lift ticket price but will add new incentives to attract those of more moderate income. First and foremost, officials said, is the "Brass Pass" season ticket plan, priced reasonably, reason-ably, available on a 24-month installment plan with a 15'2 percent monthly interest and only 10 percent down. Each season ticket buyer will be able to choose from a variety of bonus gifts, among them a Kenmore washing machine, a week's lodging in the servants' quarters at The Knoll or an all-day ski lesson with Stein Erikson with emphasis on preventing frostbite to the ears. Purchasers of day lift tickets also will be offered incentives in the form of weekly drawings for attractive, attrac-tive, free gifts. Gift items include an original Howdy Doody costume worn on April 1, 1977 by Craig Badami; tickets to the award-winning movie, "Chairlifts of Fire," a free urinalysis at the Deer Valley Health Institute and a back-country back-country guided tour to the Longbranch at Keetley. In addition, officials announced, an-nounced, the format of television advertising will be changed to appeal to a more heterogeneous community. The resort has contracted for commercial prime time television tele-vision space on Tic Tac Dough and will be giving away Deer Valley dividends through that program. Resort officials also are concerned, they said, because be-cause skiers spend only five or six hours a day on the mountain, "and that leaves another 18 hours or so at the base area." With this in mind, the resort is planning a host of after-ski activities at Snow Park Lodge to keep people up there and spending money. The lodge's vast rooms will be hung with a variety of popularly-priced art works, such as oil paintings on black velveteen and Norman Rockwell Rock-well reprints. Such popular bands as The Plasmatics will be booked to play upstairs in the bar throughout the season, sea-son, and the resort's crack team of versatile ski instructors, instruc-tors, led by Stein Erikson, will be entertaining with song and soft-shoe routines downstairs in the cafeteria. "We are dealing in a highly competitive market," one official said, "and I think we're being very innovative. We want our product to stand alone."
