Show ""if "' ' f ' I Page A8 Thursday, July 26, 1990 Park Record Utahns like anti-litter campaign The Utah Department of Transportation's Don't Waste Utah anti-litter campaign is in its second year with a new commercial and increased in-creased popularity. A three-year anti-litter campaign, Don't Waste Utah was kicked off by Governor Bangerter in 1989 to urge Utahns to keep state highways free from roadside litter. "When we first started last year, the anti-litter message was obviously obvious-ly unknown, but it immediately got everyone's attention," said Kim Morris, UDOT's director of community com-munity relations. "With the campaign's cam-paign's popularity now, we've seen less litter on the highways and a cleaner state all around." This year's commercial brings back Max's girlfriend, who accidentally acciden-tally litters and nearly gets kicked from the car. A sensible Max decides against kicking her out but sends his dog Hoover to pick up the litter. Hoover is promoted to the front seat; the girlfriend is relegated to the back seat. "The support we've been given is really encouraging. There isn't a place we go where people don't stop to ask: 'Is that the car in the commercials? com-mercials? Is that the guy? Is that the dog?' T '27-s- "For example, once when we stopped stop-ped to fill up the gas tank in Price, the gas station owner wouldn't let us pay. He said the free tank of gas was his way of supporting the anti-litter campaign," Morris said. According to a Dan Jones & Associates poll conducted three months after the campaign kicked off, Don't Waste Utah was recognized recogniz-ed by 53 percent of the Utahns surveyed. "It has far surpassed our expectations," expecta-tions," Morris said. "We're so pleased pleas-ed with the campaign that we've already opted to extend the campaign cam-paign another year beyond the original three years. Max, Hoover and the car will continue con-tinue to visit schools and events throughout Utah by request. On July 24, a Don't Waste Utah poster Max, Hoover and the car will Ko on sale. Safety inspections valid for 2 months Many Utahns don't know that they can have their vehicle's emission andor safety inspections done up to two months before their registration renewals are due. If vehicle owners take advantage of this flexibility in the law, they can more easily use the Motor Vehicle Division's Register-by-Mail Program. Pro-gram. The number of registrations by mail has dropped significantly since the law changed requiring inspections inspec-tions to expire at the same time as the auto's registration. The result has been longer lines at Motor Vehicle Vehi-cle offices along the Wasatch Front. Registration-by-Mail saves the taxpayer time, and helps the Motor Vehicle Division process renewals more efficiently. The MVD asks taxpayers tax-payers to allow 10 days for the registration to be processed and the new decals to arrive. Trash ordinance is amended of a Class "R" The City Council has amended an ordinance to require city approval of dumpster sites, prohibiting the illegal il-legal use of private dumpsters and amending the penalties for violations viola-tions of the ordinance. New sections to the city's trash ordinance or-dinance now read, "Prior to locating any dumpster In or on city rights-of-way or properties, an individual or business entity must receive prior written approval of the city by the community development director or fhov ahflll ha miltv miutameanor " . Also, "Private dumpsters or trash receptacles are for the exclusive use of the lessee or owner. Any in-dividual in-dividual or business or commercial entity depositing more than one cubic foot of solid waste or refuse into in-to a private dumpster or trash receptacle, without the prior written consent of the lessee or owner, shall be guilty of a Class "B" misdemeanor." City rejects Wintzer rezone The City Council July 19 voted unanimously to deny a request by local contractor Charles Wintzer to rezone the southwest corner of Bonanza and Ironhorse drives from light industrial to commercial. The week prior, the Planning Commission rejected the same request. re-quest. Wintzer told city officials he hoped the area could be rezoned, so that lending institutions would be more willing to loan money for potential projects there. Although some interest has been expressed to the city and Wintzer about locating a grocery store there, Wintzer told the city he was not asking ask-ing for the rezone in anticipation of building that type of project at that location. i PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA MARSAC MUNICIPAL BUILDING AUGUST 1, 1990 7:00 P.M.

The resolution noted that July 2, 1980, was deemed "Community Wireless Day" by then Mayor Jack Green, who observed that, "KPCW was possibly the only thing all of Park City ever agreed upon." The resolution said more than 700 city residents have volunteered more than 65,000 hours of their time as programmers, and the station has broadcast more than 10,000 hours of local news and has been honored by the Utah Society of Professional Journalists and the Utah Association of Broadcasters. KPCW has aired more than 190,000 public service announcements, and local residents and businesses have contributed in excess of $1 million of financial support, enabling the station sta-tion to become one of the smallest stations in the nation to qualify for community service grants from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Broad-casting. The Council congratulated station manager Blair Fueineryho Wade a -'' rare appearance' at the1 Council n meeting, and also praised the volunteers, board of trustees, staff and contributors of KPCW. Speeding tickets for bikes? Local bike shop owner Charlie Sturgis brought his concerns regarding bikes and other non-motorized traffic on Main Street before the City Council July 19. He cited the growing use of mountain bikes, skateboards and rollerblades on the street, and said, "There's probably some cause for concern because people could be injured." Sturgis, the owner of White Pine Touring at 363 Main, urged the Council to consider measures to decrease non-motorized traffic, such as issuing speeding tickets for those individuals who exceed the speed limit. "That may eliminate the problem right away," he said, but if that doesn't work, he suggested that a rule be implemented to allow such traffic to go only oneway. "You could make them go just one way up and then they could use Swede Alley for descent," said Sturgis. "But it would be silly to eliminate non-motorized vehicles after putting the new bikerackson Main Street." Park City Police Chief Frank Bell, whose job it is to administer city traffic laws, told Sturgis he would "think about it."
