Show IPqpIlnce Mepqpirit The Newspaper Thursday, August 5, 1982 Page A5 Gum bubble busted This certainly isn't the most serious of the crimes that took place in Park City over the past week, but it is the most buoyant. A nine-year-old local lad stopped into in-to the 7-Eleven July 29 and scanned the gum display. He picked a pack of Soft Bazooka Bubblegum, then promptly put it in his pocket, deciding to forego paying the going price of 35 cents. Before making it outside, where no doubt he was going to pop the first piece in his mouth to work it in before blowing a bubble, he was nabbed for shoplifting by an employee. Bad enough that the police were called, but worse was that he was told he would be let off the hook if he would agree to tell his mother of his misdeed. That's getting off the hook? In other incidents: Dolly Makoff, owner of Dolly's Bookstore on Main Street, reported that the shop was burglarized July 27. Entry apparently was made by breaking a window in an enclosed courtyard. A deposit bag in a file drawer was cut open and $490 in cash was taken. Over $400 in equipment was stolen over the past two weeks from a construction site at the Snowcrest condominiums. con-dominiums. Steven Stinson reported that a skill saw, extension ex-tension cords, a brief case and numerous hand tools were taken. A $600 electric stove was taken July 28 when the Wildwood condominiums at 1403 Woodside Avenue were burglarized. Because an unforced un-forced entry was made into one of the condominiums that was under construction, the police speculate that it was an "inside job." An argument in the End Run Tavern led to a complaint com-plaint of criminal mischief July 31. Victor Byer told police he was arguing with Mike Speers in the bar about the tires on his vehicle. Speers allegedly left after the disagreement, then shot both tires of Byer's car. One tire went flat, and the bullet also hit one mag wheel, causing the rim to crack. Byers claims the damage was $175. Sateki Wolfgramm of Salt Lake told police that four bundles of wall insulation in-sulation were stolen from an unlocked storage room from a condominium under construction con-struction at 1400 Woodside Avenue sometime between July 30 and Aug. 2. The insulation in-sulation was valued at $400. Although police have yet to receive an itemized list, Jesus Yarem of Mexico City reported that his Fawngrove condominium was burglarized of some $2,200 worth of items July 30 to Aug. 1. The theft of two air com pressors at the Sweetwater condominiums put Harold Bowen of Coalville out $1,000. Bowen told police that a chain that secured the compressors to a concrete pier had been cut sometime between July 30 and Aug. 2. A number of people were arrested over the past week for driving under the influence. in-fluence. Kevin Bry, 24, of Heber told police that he was not the driver responsible for an accident at the intersection intersec-tion of Heber and Park Avenues July 26. He told Officer Of-ficer Kip Ingersoll that he was a passenger in the car that received $1,000 worth of damage when it struck a parked vehicle, and that he awoke only after the accident ac-cident occurred. After checking the alibi of the person per-son Bry fingered as the driver, Ingersoll determined that Bry, in fact, had been driving. After a field sobriety test, Bry was taken to the Summit County Jail in Coalville and held on $406 bail. On Aug. 1, Officer Ingersoll Inger-soll noted that traffic was being held up on Main Street by driver Renee Jones, so he motioned to her to move on. The 22-year-old Salt Lake woman then pulled into the curb on the other side of the street, again blocking traffic. traf-fic. When the officer spoke to Jones, he noticed a strong odor of alcohol. She failed the field sobriety test, and was taken to Coalville and held on $406 bail. Salt Lake City resident Charles Molinaro, 37, was arrested for driving under the influence on Highway 224 after Office Cliff Koker observed ob-served him driving erratically. Lyle Nordin, 34, of Woodland was arrested for DUI when Officer Nancy Carroll clocked him speeding on Highway 248. (Drannsll Capmle Mill levy revised Oops! Because of a typographical error in last week's Newspaper, readers may be confused as to when the auction of 13 Saddle condominiums will take place. The auction will be held this Saturday, Aug. 7, on site, which is east of Highway 224, behind the Windrift condominiums. The units are constructed extensively of redwood and glass, and look out across a private pond and the fairways of the Park City Golf Course to the runs of the Park City Ski Area. For more information on the auction, which is being conducted for American Savings and Loan Association by Kennedy-Wilson, Inc. of Santa San-ta Monica, Calif., in cooperation with Skyline Land Company in Park City, call 649-3230 between bet-ween 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. No fee will be charged to attend the auction. Accident victim improving Park City resident Michael Massey was moved off the critical list and is now reported in satisfactory condition con-dition in Holy Cross Hospital following a motorcycle accident ac-cident July 25. Massey and passenger Allen Maxwell were thrown more than 40 feet from a 1971 Suzuki 500 when it struck a parked van and then a pile of rocks near the intersection of Hillside and Marsac Avenues. Massey received extensive injuries as a result of the motorcycle landing on top of him, while Maxwell was thrown clear. Maxwell, 19, was taken to the Park City Health Clinic where he was treated and released. Massey, 37, was flown to Holy Cross Hospital by the Life Flight helicopter, where he was admitted into the Intensive In-tensive Care Unit in critical condition. Massey apparently is recuperating from two punctured punc-tured lungs, a skull fracture, frac-ture, compressed bladder, numerous broken bones, and serious contusions and abrasions. The City Council unanimously revised the resolution adopting adopt-ing the 1982-83 mill levy at last Thursday's meeting. Sorry, the mill levy hasn't been lowered, just redistributed between the city's General Fund and Library Bond due to requirements of the Utah State Tax Commission. The reasons for the change are two-fold: First, there was a slight decrease in the valuation of property in the city because of a change in state valued land, which includes such things as railroad property. And second, the computation of the Library debt service now includes the revenues to be achieved through the increment within the Redevelopment District. The city had excluded debt service for both the School District and the Library, but the state tax commission requires a different formula. The change has no impact on the amount of money to be collected by the city. The total mill levy remains at 20.95 mills, but the distribution shifts from 18.86 mills to 17.33 for the General Fund and from 2.09 to 3.62 mills for the Library Bond debt service. Jan's withdraws request Jan Peterson of Jan's Mountain Outfitter store in the Mt. Air Mall withdrew his request for an outdoor sale during the Art Festival weekend. At the City Council's July 22 meeting, it postponed a decision on Peterson's request, however, it expressed ex-pressed concern for creating a flea market atmosphere during a time reserved for the sale of art on Main Street. Despite Peterson's withdrawal, the city pursued the issue. City ordinances require that all sales occur within a fully enclosed building, but because exceptions have been granted in the past for events such as the Art Festival, sales will be permitted again. In a letter to the Park City businesses from city officials, it was noted that "Recognizing that the Art Festival is more than a celebration of artists, but an economically important weekend to city businesses, and in keeping with past practices, businesses with a Park City license will be allowed to sell outside during the Art Festival." The city sent two other letters on the subject. One was to Main Street merchants, who were requested to keep sale items inside their buildings to avoid extraneous congestion and to minimize opportunities for shoplifting. The other was to residents, asking for their cooperation in not holding garage sales over that busy weekend. "Over a period of the last few years, there has been a growing trend to expand the Art Festival beyond the designated artist booths which are located on Main Street," said the letter. "Everything from garage sales to the transient tran-sient merchant selling from someone's lawn has tended to change the character of the Festival from a specialty art show to a randomly organized flea market."
