Show Page A6 Thursday, May 18, 1989 Park Record Church urges state to maintain laws by JENNIFER MADGIC Record staff writer Among the minority responding respon-ding to the Alcoholic Beverage Control's questions concerning the state's liquor laws was William S. Evans, director of community relations for the IDS Church. Since "the majority of Utahns do not consume alcoholic beverages," the church's response emphasized the need of state liquor laws to "adequately reflect the safety and lifestyle interests in-terests of the majority who do not drink," said Evans. The church maintains alcohol and beer should come under state control and profits should go to the state. The church's answers came in response to a seven-question survey asked by a task force established by Alcoholic Beverage Control to find out how Utahns felt about Utah's liquor laws. The original questions with William S. Evans' answers follow below: J. What principles should govern state control of alcoholic beverages? The governing principles of Parking heads RDA budget The city council, acting in its capacity as the Redevelopment Agency board, is expected Thursday to approval an $805,610 budget for the 1989-1990 year. Parking projects in the historic district remain the top priority with $640,000 projected to be spent on three primary sites: an expansion at China Bridge, a lot at the new Brew Pub to be completed this summer, and a lot at the top of Marsac Hill. The second priority is $100,000 of grant money to be used to refurbish historic stuctures in the three-year-old grant process. A total of $65,610 is anticipated to be spent on a number of plazas, and various smaller projects pro-jects from bike racks to public art are included in that figure. Beauty gets bucks The Main Street Historic District is sponsoring a "most beautiful building contest," according to president Sheila Haloff . Beginning in June (weather permitting) a weekly winner will be awarded until October when an overall winner will be named. The city has kicked in $5,000 of impact fee monies and will match outside improvements im-provements in $250 increments to Main Street businesses. Fresh paint, flower boxes and shiny windows are expected to replace cigarette butts and obnoxious signs. Police Motter Park City police investigated a break-in at a Main Street bookstore early ear-ly Sunday morning, after it was discovered that money had been taken from the cash register. Police said sometime during Saturday night or early Sunday morning unknown parties entered Dolly's bookstore at 510 Main St., making entrance en-trance through a side window. About $377 was taken from the store. In other reports, a motorcycle was reported stolen May 13 after being parked at 176 Park Ave. The motorcycle, a Yamaha XT350, was later found at Jeremy Ranch and impounded by officials. A vehicle burglary was reported May 14 after a rock had been thrown through the window of a 1987 Honda Accord parked on Captain Molly Drive. The owner of the vehicle said a radar detector valued at $120 had been taken, and $150 of damage had been done to the car.

Adjoummnflt 1 , A RfldBvelopment Agency Meeting will convene, Utah's alcoholic beverage control laws aim to minimize alcohol abuse and alcohol consumption by ensuring that (1) the sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages be controlled by the state; and (3) consumption of alcoholic beverages to be promoted. pro-moted. We support these governing principles and urge that any changes in Utah's alcoholic beverage control laws not violate these guiding principles. Utah's alcoholic beverage control con-trol laws and regulations should reasonably accommodate those who wish to consume alcoholic beverages without imposing on the majority of Utah citizens who do not. These laws and regulations regula-tions should be adequately and uniformly enforced to ensure that their intent is met. People throughout the world are increasingly aware of the high health, safety and social costs caused by alcohol abuse. The trend of the law is toward more, not less, control of alcoholic beverages. Utah should remain a leader in this important area. 2. What limitations, if any should be placed on the number of places where liquor may be sold and consumed in Utah? The sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages should be controlled and limited by state statute patterned after existing formulas based on population. We believe that public opinion supports these limitations and the continued control of alcoholic beverages by the state. 3. When, where and how should liquor, wine and beer be sold, dispensed, and consumed in Utah, including any restrictions on time and place of sale and method of dispensing? The time, place and manner of service of alcoholic beverages should remain a matter of state control. For years Utah has been a leader in restricting noon-time drinking. These restrictions have positive social benefits. The easy access to and high consumption of beer have become major problems with adverse social costs and consequences. conse-quences. This issue is more specifically addressed in the reply rep-ly to question five. 4. Should any restrictions be placed on the advertising of liquor, li-quor, wine and beer? Advertisements of alcoholic products, particularly those targeting youth, are often beguiling beguil-ing and totally ignore the tragic consequences of alcohol abuse in young human lives. Alcohol (especially beer) is the most prevalent gateway drug to harder drugs. Alcoholic beverages (including beer) Correction Legal Notice Correction of Legal Notice: The Redevelopment Agency of Park City will hold a public hearing concerning their budget on May 18, 1989 instead of May 25, 1989 as previously advertised. The hearing will be held immediately following the regularly scheduled Council meeting at 6:00 p.m. should not be promoted and consumption con-sumption should not be encouraged. encourag-ed. We favor the elimination of advertising for all alcoholic beverages. 5. Should state controls be placed plac-ed on beer? If so, what controls? Currently, beer is virtually uncontrolled, un-controlled, although more alcohol is consumed in the form of beer than all other alcoholic beverages combined. Beer is the most widely abused alcoholic beverage in the United States, including in-cluding Utah. State control of other forms of alcoholic beverages, including licenses, hours and enforcement, has worked well in containing abuse. We recommend that careful consideration con-sideration be given to state control con-trol of beer. For beer to be outside out-side state control seems to be a paradox and runs counter to the principles of the alcoholic beverage control laws. 6. What other comments or suggestions sug-gestions do you have about the purpose and direction of Utah liquor li-quor laws? Laws not adequately enforced are ineffective and counterproductive. counter-productive. We favor strong and uniform enforcement of state alcoholic beverage control laws. Where necessary, enforcement should be increased. Funds appropriated ap-propriated for alcoholic beverage control law enforcement should be used for that purpose. 7. Will your approach and comments com-ments be philosophically acceptable accep-table to Utah residents? The majority of Utahns do not consume alcoholic beverages. Laws controlling these substances should adequately reflect the safety and lifestyle interests in-terests of the majority who do not drink, while reasonably accommodating accom-modating those who wish to drink. Effective state control of alcoholic beverages is an important impor-tant factor in reduced alcohol consumption.
