CENTER STREET OPENING STILL IN STALEMATE, SOME PROGRESS REPORTED Citizens adjacent to West Center Cen-ter Street were invited to city council meeting Monday night to discuss the proposed opening open-ing of the street. Weston Kofford, c o u n cil member, told the group that the city has been attempting to open up this street for the past 10 years for better fire and police po-lice protection to west side residents.

In case of a fire in the west central section of the community, commun-ity, the department has to travel trav-el from Center and State up to 4th North or down to 4th South and thence west causing several seconds loss in time with a great potential fire damage resulting. Fire insurance rates are therefore there-fore considerably higher In Orem than they should be. The need for a central shopping shop-ping center was also mentioned mention-ed to help out Orem's business situation. Council members reported re-ported on a business survey of surrounding communities. It was stated that wherein Orem was doing approximately $5,-000,000; $5,-000,000; American Fork had $6,-000,000 $6,-000,000 with Provo garnering approximately $ 4 5, 0 0 0 , 0 00.
