Citizens attending the Public Hearing also were against the requested re-quested increase in density. "I'm not against student housing, but I'm against jam packing so many students into such a small area," said Frances Perry. She asked the council coun-cil not to undercut what people have done in the past to protect resident property values in the area. Two young boys at the meeting recited problems of bike riding with the increasing traffic. "I'm afraid to ride my bike to school," said Daniel Gov. Bangerter speaks to home builders at UVCC Governor Bangerter speaking to the Home Builders Association at Utah Valley Community College June 25 described "drastic changes" he had implemented to "try and stretch tax dollars to meet the needs of the people." Among those changes is a significant signifi-cant shift from 63 percent to 70 percent per-cent in the percentage of the budget appropriated for education. Governor Bangerter said, educators had been asked to cut down administrative staff by 10 percent, but emphasized the majority of the education budget would be used where "it is needed most, in the classroom." The Governor also stressed the need to use buildings more efficiently efficient-ly making reference to the closure of South High School in Salt Lake City. Bangerter addressed common complaints made about the waste in government. The Governor recognized recogniz-ed there is waste and that constant efforts ef-forts are being made to reduce waste. "Utah has the fewest number of State employees per 1000 residents in the nation. I want to give them credit, they are extremely productive and do a great job." The Governor also praised the success of the State bonding program. "Utah has no debt that extends beyond seven years," said Bangerter, "That is the best of any state in the Nation." He pointed out that the four year bonding program begun under his administration had resulted in less than two percent interest annually in real terms. The Governor commented on changes made within the corrections system for the State. Bangerter said, "We have prevented the spending of $30 million by having prison inmates double bunk." He encouraged members of the Home Builders Association to find a way to be successful despite changes in the economy and referred to his 30 years of experience in the home building and real estate industry saying, say-ing, "I remember how nice it is to be the pounder(of nails) instead of the pounded." Motorcycle accidents claim two lives Motorcycle accidents claimed two lives over the weekend. On Saturday Satur-day Alfonso Mijares, 25, a student at the Utah Valley Community College sustained fatal head injuries in what turned out to be an accident involving five cars. Bonnie Owens, 22 of Provo, was cited for making an improper, unsafe left turn after she stopped in the inside lane on State Street in Orem impeding traffic. Four or five cars stopped behind her to avoid a collision, colli-sion, but one car, driven by Kathy Jackson, 23, of Orem swerved to avoid hitting the other vehicles, and veered into the oncoming lanes where the vehicle was struck broadside by Mijares motorcycle. The motorcyclist was not wearing a helmet at the time. In a separate incident on Sunday, Steven Johnston, 21, of Orem, was killed when the motorcycle he was driving on 6000 South in Lakeshore collided with a Chevrolet Subruban intersecting in-tersecting at 4000 West.

Bobby Olsen agreed and added, add-ed, "It would be just dumb to put in (more student housing) there." Ted Peacock, Director of Public Safety verified that there has been a "significant impact in law enforcement" enforce-ment" in the area of the student housing. Mr. Batista, a representative of the developer, Terrapak & Assoc., assured that it was the intention of Terrapak to "add to, not to detract from the aesthetics of the neighborhood." neighbor-hood." The request for more housing is not new. Last year on October 14, (after previously denying the request) re-quest) the Council heard new information infor-mation and called for a Public Hearing Hear-ing on November 11, 1986. In that hearing, the Council denied the applicant's appli-cant's request and said they wanted to wait for results of a traffic study on the 12th South and 750 West intersection intersec-tion before voting. On May 5, 1987 the Council adopted the Traffic Plan to resolve traffic flow problems. After that plan was adopted the applicant requested a review of his plan to add 92 units: 16 units for married mar-ried students and 76 units for single students. These would be added next to property currently zoned for student stu-dent housing. It will be necessary to rezone the additional property to R-l-SH to add to the development. Unless a need is shown for more housing, the Council indicated they would not vote for more housing there. "The answer to pollution, is dilution," said Councilman Richard Jackson. He said the City should not concentrate all the student housing in that area. "We need another activity there." Councilman Paul Washburn agreed and posed the motion to deny. "Once you build housing for students, it's not Tnuch good for anything else." City attorney takes on State Tax Commission Orem City attorney's office called call-ed for a hearing when Utah State Tax Commission claimed Orem City owed ow-ed the state approxiamately $80,000.00 in uncollected sales taxes. "Not so," claimed City Attorney Paul Johnson in an informal hearing before the Tax Commission last week. The formal hearing will be held at a later date. According to the State Tax Commission, Orem City should be collecting col-lecting sales tax on Fitness Center passes, animal fees at the City Pound, and for selling xerox copies at the City Ci-ty Library. UVCC nursing instructors receive top awards Grace Bramall and Marilyn Prete, nursing instructors at Utah Valley Community College, were presented the Outstanding Teacher Award for Health Occupations during the Utah Vacational Association conference recently held at Salt Lake Community Communi-ty College. Bramall was also presented the Nurse of the Year Award at the conference by the Utah Nurses Association District No. Three. Bramall and Prete were recognized recog-nized for exceptional nursing service during the '86-87 school year. Due to nursing and health care needs in Delta, the two instructors volunteered volunteer-ed to travel to Delta to teach nursing through an extension program of UVCC at the Delta vocational school. ' They taught classes on weekends and evenings while still meeting their obligations at UVCC in Orem. Most of the students participating in the extension ex-tension program work full-time which necessitated pursuing nursing skills on this schedule. According to Bramall, the health care needs in the rural communities are growing. "This was a great opportunity oppor-tunity to go into the rural areas to meet the needs of the people there. It is the service and giving that means the most." "Marilyn and I represent many nurses who have given service to people peo-ple in need for many years. They should all be recognized," said Bramall. Bramall and Prete have both been with UVCC for 13 years. .
