Fred After 20 years as sheriff of Summit County, Ron Robinson Robin-son is hanging up his spurs. And the campaign to choose his successor, which started out as a two-way race between Republican Fred Eley and Democrat Ferol Hebden, has heated up in recent weeks with the announcement an-nouncement that Douglas Jacobson was planning a campaign as a write-in candidate. Here is a brief summary on the background and platform of each candidate, taken from recent interviews and campaign literature. Fred Eley, a Park City resident, is basing his strategy stra-tegy on the assumption that Summit County residents are satisfied with the service now provided by the Sheriff's . Department4i,EleyJl a deguty, under Robinson for the past 11 years, is promising more of the same. "I don't see any major policy changes," he said. "Our job is to protect the people of the county. I feel we've always done that." Eley said he was approached ap-proached by Robinson and the other deputies in the department and asked to run. "I've got 100 percent support (within the department)," depart-ment)," he said. "They have confidence in me." If elected, Eley plans to carry on the Robinson tradition tradi-tion of being a "working sheriff" as well as an administrator. He argues that, in a small 10-man department such as Summit County's, the sheriff must do more than sit behind a desk. Among his credentials, Eley lists his graduation from the Utah police academy acad-emy and his knowledge of the county and its residents. "I know the county," he The vie for sheriff's post Eley said. "I know the problems. I know what's worked, what's failed... and I get along with all the law enforcement agencies. I feel I can work with any of them." During Eley's tenure as a deputy, Summit County passed a "keg law" to crack down on beer parties in the canyons. "We were having large groups out of Salt Lake that were coming up into the canyons around Kamas and around here... They were actually selling tickets... We had some assaults, a stabbing... stab-bing... It just got out of hand." Eley said he heard about an ordinance passed by Cache County to prevent just such events, and took the initiative in seeing a similar statute passed in Summit County. "It saved us and the citizens a lot of problems." As sheriff, Eley would like to see the department expanded ex-panded to give the county better coverage, particularly particular-ly during the early morning hours. "We're going to have to have another three men to run cars until 4 or 5 in the morning," he said. "It's getting to the point where we have to have it." Running on the Democratic Democra-tic ticket is Ferol Hebden, a native of Salt Lake City and a graduate of South High School and Stevens Henegar College. She and her husband hus-band moved to Kamas eight years ago. They were co-owners co-owners of Ferol's Fabrics in Kamas before she took a job as a bookkeeper for Alpha Beta in Park City. "I have been interested in law enforcement for many years," she says. "I have gained much knowledge Why did we spend so much time designing the Saab seats?

I have worked with the Kamas police officers in the training program set up by my husband, who is an unpaid public safety commissioner com-missioner appointed by the mayor and the City Council of Kamas." Hebden says she has monitored the activities of the Summit County Sheriff's office for the past seven years, "and I feel that there are some areas that need change." "As crime is on the increase, we must look at a change in patrol tactics. We need to concentrate on the residential areas being patrolled pa-trolled to deter house burglaries. bur-glaries. It is more profitable to deter the crime than solve it after you have a victim damaged." Hebden cited one case of a county resident who, after her home was burglarized, was told that her street would be patrolled once a week, every Sunday. "I think we need more than that. I think we need several times a day... Right now (Tuesday evening) there are only two deputies on duty in the whole county. And they're both right now in Coalville." Among her priorities, Hebden Heb-den lists a desire to change the operation of the sheriff's office to be more responsive to local citizens. She calls for a lowering of response time by putting deputies in residential resi-dential areas around the county. She also promises "to see that the deputies receive more than the minimum mini-mum training required by the in-service program." Unlike Eley, she sees the sheriff's job as largely administrative. "I would appoint a strong chief deputy who, under misdirection, would supervise" and work with the men. Most of the Summit County deputies are dedicated men and, if headed in the proper direction, direc-tion, will do an excellent job." However, she also points out that it is a requirement that she attend P.O.S.T. (Peace Officers Standards and Training) to become certified. "I intend to incorporate my husband's expertise into any problems that arise until my P.O.S.T. training is complete." Facing an uphill struggle in the campaign is Doug Jacobson of Summit Park, who must convince enough voters to write his name on the ballot to defeat the two who have party endorsements. endorse-ments. Jacobson, a Utah native, feels that his 15 years as a Utah Highway Patrol trooper give him the necessary neces-sary background to handle built. --ft v " .... . , - A ; V ; ':.

Since leaving the Highway Patrol 10 years ago, Jacob-son Jacob-son has been the owner and operator of the Mountain Village Coffee Shop at Parley's Par-ley's Summit. He and his family have lived in Summit Park for 14 years. One of Jacobson's main campaign pledges is to modernize the Summit County Coun-ty Sheriff's Department. He is calling for more training for the deputies, such as two-year college programs, and a better pay scale.

"I think drunk driving is a big problem all over." And he points out that some areas, such as Hene-fer, Hene-fer, are concerned about cracking down on speeders. "Each segment of the county has different problems. Jacobson recognizes that he is fighting an uphill battle against the other, party-backed party-backed candidates. "I think the most difficult thing is letting people know there is an alternative." Nevertheless, he has been systematically knocking on Uoors throughout the county. "I have been gratified by the reception I have received," re-ceived," he says. "I feel real good about it. Even if I lose, the experience of this has been worthwhile." Jacobson "ft ft ft ft X A'.
