Methods of collecing and diisposing of solid wastes should be improved. Cities and towns along with the County, should cooperate in this endeavor wherever greater convenience and economy can be achieved. Disposal sites and methods meth-ods of disposal should be adequate, proper'y located, and should not deract from property values in the area. Air pollution should be kept to a minimum. Millard County needs improved airport facilities to encourage growth and development. The County administration is therefore encouraged to share leadership with the cities in searching out grants and other means of financing financ-ing improvements. In this connection, connec-tion, it is recommended that vocational voca-tional training be provided in our high schools to train young people to operate and maintain such facilities. fa-cilities. Weeds along the shoulders of County roads should be controlled by spraying or mowing. Cities that develop in a cmpact orderly manner are more liveable ply, sewer disposal, hard surfaced streets, police and fire protection can be provided at much less cost. City officials should therefore, use caution in extending city services into scattered areas beyond city boundaries. The County Commissioners should look into the need for a County Survevor to facilitate transfer of property and establish boundaries and to create such a position if such is deemed advisable. The County should investigate and work with the School Admin istration through the State Board of than, cities that develop in a scat- i aucauon, ior ine purple tered leap-frog manner.
